If you’re a student, you know the struggle: Zoom classes buffering, assignments  refusing to upload, and Netflix deciding to load right when you need a break.
Choosing the right internet package isn’t about luck; it’s about knowing what fits your study and entertainment lifestyle.
Let’s break it down.

1. Know your daily internet habits

Before checking prices, ask yourself: what do I actually use the internet for?
• Online classes and research? You need consistency more than high speed.
• Streaming movies and gaming? Go for higher bandwidth.
• Group projects or content creation? A dedicated connection might be better than shared Wi-Fi.
Tip: Track your usage for a week using your phone’s data stats or router app. It will surprise you how much data YouTube consumes.

2. Compare speed vs stability

A 20 Mbps connection that never drops is better than a 50 Mbps one that keeps cutting out.
For students in areas like Ruaka, Gachie, Banana and Busia, look for providers that actually deliver what they promise.
Reality check: Many ISPs advertise big numbers but can’t maintain stable speeds during peak hours.
That’s why iKomol focuses on steady, reliable internet, not inflated numbers. Our fiber-backed network keeps you connected whether you’re studying, streaming, or submitting assignments at 11:59 PM.

3. Look for student-friendly packages

A good student package should be:
•  Affordable: Flexible monthly renewals with no long contracts.
•  Fast enough: At least 10–20 Mbps for shared student houses.
•  Supported: Quick local help when things go wrong.

iKomol Student Plans are designed for exactly this. You get stable speeds, flexible renewals, and local support teams who actually pick up your calls.

4. Ask about installation and router options

Don’t ignore setup costs. Some providers charge hidden fees for routers or cabling. With iKomol, installation in Gachie Ruaka, Muchatha, and Busia County is simple, transparent, and done by local technicians who get the job right the first time.

5. Think long-term

Your studies might end, but your need for internet will not. Pick a provider that grows with you, from a student plan today to a home or small-business plan tomorrow. At iKomol, our promise is simple: “iKomol iko steady, kila wakati, kila mahali.” Whether you’re in class, at home, or building your next big thing, your connection should always keep up.
