If you want to, then go for it.
Otherwise I'd advise putting the VDSL modem in bridge mode, buying a decent router and dialing PPPoE from that.
what is the benefit of bridge mode instead of using modem for pppoe requests?
If you don't put the modem in bridge mode and use a router with it, you'll have issues with double NAT due to 2 different private IP pools.
Lol, you are right, i would used much worse word.

PTCL VDSL 20mb can't stream Twitch on 720p while my crappy Ufone 3G streams Twitch in 1080p 60fps. What the hell?? How is this possible? Even browsing is bad on Ufone but it handled that HD stream like a boss. WTF??
I think that's because the DNS server is taking you to Hong Kong's server (since the internet perceives that to be closer...whereas it's not). Google's DNS server redirects you to Hong Kong's server as well. Try using a DNS server that takes you to the Singaporean mirror.
This is a very common problem in Pakistan ... get use to it bro !! Youtube Works like a charm but twitch doesnt coz of the servers and our crappy internet routing !!

I am just surprised that my Ufone 3G which is a pain to browse on streamed Twitch in full HD without any buffering issues.
wow nice speed can you please share modem stats?
Speed is good but that ping is really high considering the short distance. Used to get less than that from KSA to EU, mainly on the Italian servers.
PTCL will be good for downloading stuff, I was spoilt with 100 Mbps when I had it, everything was so quick.
TES is good for gaming and they'll usually help if you're having ping issues to certain servers. However, their billing is worse than you'd expect. Really needs some serious improvement. Packages above 30 Mbps also have terrible pricing.
100 Mbps for 13k? Seriously...
No personal experience with Optix, but my uncle had it when he lived in Lahore. He had no complaints, and from what I've read on Facebook, neither does anyone else.

The cross gen era really made people think 60fps would be a new standard lolLegacyGamerGuy said: -

Welp, done with Hellblade 2. Thoroughly disappointed. Such a nothing burger after the unique experience of the first game.
-
L LegacyGamerGuy:I have a PS5 but I am not satisfied with the experience. I am currently saving for a 4080 64 GB rig soon. Bit will wait for Pro if performance improves. This gen has been so bad I don't plan on buying consoles anymore for AAA gaming.
-
L LegacyGamerGuy:Consoles were my main platform ever since Atari 2500. But now I think it's not worth it as PC especially with DLSS deliver far smoother performance. AW2 on console didn't even had ray tracing and ran below 30fps. Similar issues plagues DD2 on consoled.

L LegacyGamerGuy:Both PS and Xbox have been a flop this gen as they can barely maintain 30 fps in a lot of AAA games th.
-
L LegacyGamerGuy:As per WCCF Tech review, Xbox Series X doesn't even maintain a consistent FPS and sometimes drops into the mid-20fps range. That's unacceptable, tbh.

Score 1 for game pass. I wouldn't pay full price for this at retail either.LegacyGamerGuy said: -
L LegacyGamerGuy:Gradually transitioning from console gaming to PC as the games are not worth it. 6 hours of Hellblade 2 is just not worth the $50 price tag.
-
L LegacyGamerGuy:Just downloaded my first legit digital PC game on GoG at a discount of $8: Two Point Hospital. The same team behind Theme Hospital Two Point Studios now part of Sega. And I am having more fun than most recent AAA games except of course BG3.
-
L LegacyGamerGuy:Still, I don't like either Sony or Microsoft as they are focusing more on corporate greed than delighting customers. PC gaming is best of gaming and worth every penny.
-
L LegacyGamerGuy:PC Gamer score of 58/100 for Hellblade 2??? Is it really worse than Gollum that was 64/100? Microsoft games can't even come close to high scores of Sony exclusives apparently.
-
L LegacyGamerGuy:About the Microsoft (and Sony) debate, I feel both have become too greedy and losing their minds over corporate greed. Personally, I will never buy any console next gen and switch to PC gaming where democracy reins.
