I wonder why they upgraded that cabinet n my area if they are to deploy MSAGs

Did the same to my area (Officers Colony Phase 4). Internet was out for 4 days and there was work being done at the cabinet. They opened up the cabinet itself took out all the switches in rows and installed new ones.

Exactly. There are 2 cabinets, they only upgraded the smaller one.

so yesterday i thought that for getting lower pings on ptcl i can maybe use adsl2+ on my modem with fast path enabled, so i told ptclcares on twitter to convert my connection type from interleaved to fast path, but as i have vdsl2, now when i woke up today, im not able to browse when im connected to vdsl2. Did i mess up? internet is working fine on other modes other than vdsl2. But im not able to browse on vdsl2.Its like the default gateway doesnt give me access to any internet although im connected from modem to internet.
They probably switched your connection to adsl because vdsl doesn't have fastpath but is much more stable than adsl. I would take 10-15ms higher ping any day because vdsl is much more stable and offers higher upload speeds as it is FTTC. Tell them to switch you back to vdsl if you don't care that much about fastpath.

Exactly the same situation here. The big cabinet is at the very start of the colony while this small one is just for phase 4.

My theory here is that they'll get fiber to the big main cabinet for the area and then afterward's it will be copper.

The big cabinet is roughly ~1km away from my house which still wouldn't be that bad tbh. VDSL would still work just fine (Although if it was <.5km it would've been better).

I have 20mbps VDSL and i usually get 100-120ms to SEAS servers however i get 200ms+ on some SEAS servers such as 137.116.130.11 so i use my router filter to block those servers. My IP pool is 39.37.xxx.xxx. I have complained to PTCL to fix the inconsistent ping on SEAS servers so lets see if they actually fix it.

In my case, both the cabinets are placed next to each other and are about 300m away from my home. And according to your theory, it will be FTTC not FTTH.
According to me, they will deploy FTTH based on demand, others may get FTTC only as FTTH installation charges are quite hefty.

It will indeed be FTTC for most other users and afterward's it will be ADSL/VDSL (After FTTC of course) or FTTH for customers. <<< Let's hope this is indeed what is happening and we'll get FTTC/FTTH (Dependent on the user) in about 2 months tops.

Bilkuo sahi kaha jahan per speed ki demand hogi wahan per GPON mille ga we just have to wait few months for fibre to be deployed and it will all be good for us.

Best 4g Internet device for online gaming??

I only play Fifa 19(PS4) Ultimate Online.
In wah, only Zong 4G works. There is jazz 4G but idk if it's available here. For zong, you get get the Bolt Ultra router device or one of the other mbb devices (You can get a USB MBB device along with a TP-Link router that supports 4G Dongles).

So i want to know that how do you block an ip in ptcl router? if u got a specific method can u share because i play fortnite and i have the same issue with asia servers and i want to block that ip which gives higher pings.

Zong 4G is choked most of the times here, it used to be good for gaming back then but now it sucks. Jazz 4G is quite good.

    Started Dead Island 2, and i find it pretty lame. The story is shit. The characters are either cringe or bland (all 6 of them), The gameplay isn't fun. Even the goddamn zombies don't behave like proper zombies. They're all fast & intelligent unlike how zombies are supposed to be like. Any fan of "zombie" genre cannot possibly like this shitfest of a game. Dying Light 2 was million times better than this shit.
