Our network is accessible through local calls in Diani, Eldoret, Kericho, Kisumu, Malindi, Mombasa, Nairobi, Nakuru, Nanyuki and Nyeri.

Roaming Services

The Africa Online Kenya's roaming service allows our dial-up customers in Kenya to connect to the Internet from almost any country in the world using their local Africa Online E-Mail address.

To do this, a customer would need to login to the roaming software installed on their computer free of charge by Africa Online, select the country he or she is in, and then choose a roaming member ISP from the list and connect. It's that easy!

The advantages of using the roaming service is that there is no change of email address as you travel, it saves you on telephone costs as you access through a local number, and support is available locally in the country that you are in, that is, you call a roaming member ISP that you use connecting for support in case of any difficulties. Contact us for more information.
