instead of wires, even between citys the internet is transmitted by air. Im currently in southwest cameroon, and only means for access is over the air. At home, I use mobile network. But even in all the cyber cafes, offices, etc they use different over the air solutions. As far as I know, no one is wired directly to the network. And apparently even from this region, traffic goes to douala over the air, where it meets optical sea cable. Oh, and incoming connection is under monopoly. If it goes down, everyone go dark. There are startups whose plan is to create local network coverin city for high bandwith content, without relaying to the outside connection as this is mostly bandwith limited. So called alternative network of catche servers and wifi, as often even watching youtube is pain depending on the time and location.
