I have couple of questions
1 what kind of ping should i expect using nayatel or other fiber providers in Islamabad? I play games like Apex legends, cod, Rainbow six siege and others mostly in European servers.

2 if let's say you live a neighborhood that have no fiber optic coverage, can you order it and get it to where you live?
I'm soon going to Islamabad and as a gamer this is a concern for me, my house is in H-13, ALI BAKHISH TOWN, can someone confirm if it's covered or not?

Which of these ISPs is gamer friendly? I would like to use my own gaming router by setting the ONT in bridge mode. Don't want double-NAT. I have heard PTCL doesn't allow bridge mode and won't provide PPPoE credentials for those on Flash Fiber.

I have heard Stormfiber is good. Connect speed fluctuates widely. It is only good for browsing, YouTube and Netflix.

Thanks for the response, good to know the forums are not totally dead and there's more to PG than the marketplace.
Yea I've heard good things about StormFiber too, they're the first ones to enable dual stack IPv4/IPv6. I just hope they are accommodating to power users and allow setting the ONT in bridge mode.

    It's based on an actual real life person so I don't think the woke police have a valid case here.
    Nope. They have a very valid case. The above video explains it all.

    Meanwhile Ghost of Tsushima PC version is out now. Looks 100 times better than ASS Creed already.

    Did y'all see the new Assassin's Creed trailer? They finally made a AC set in Japan & then they put a negro as the male protagonist. Ubisoft is taking cues from Disney, and it isn't gonna end well for them, just like Disney. Go woke, go broke!

    Phil should be held responsible for this shitfest too, just like Sarah, but it's highly likely that these decisions are coming from Satya. And this isn't even the end of it. More closures are coming.

    if we are moving towards more and more popular trash across platforms that make billions for companies, I'm happy with all the barriers and exclusivity because at least that brings some pressure to create good stuff.

    "These changes are not a reflection of the creativity and skill of the talented individuals at these teams or the risks they took to try new things" ... seems to me that's exactly what it is

    They could've sold the studios instead of closing them, but the nazi bastards just didn't want competition down the road.
