    Same here. Pings on PTCL has gone to crap since last month or two. Doesn't impact browsing and downloading that much but multiplayer gaming on servers in EU is almost impossible now. Strangely warid LTE which I think uses same internet backbone as PTCL (coz of etisalat) gives OK pings to EU...

    OK thanks. I will email those high level PTA employees. Maybe they can find out the cause and stop it before somebody innocent is convicted of some serious crime or terrorism because some ufone sales guy who wanted to make some money issued few illegal sims.

    I think it would be best if you let them dig and install the infrastructure at their pace. If you ask them to hurry up they will most likely cut some corners and that could result in some serious problems negatively impact GPON service in your area few years later. You emailed PTCLcares twitter...

    Wow. (yr) Mind blown. You did the impossible. Congratulations. Plz tell me in detail who you contacted and how you convinced them for laying down FTTH infrastructure and providing GPON service in an area. Maybe I can use some of that advice to convince PTCL to replace that 10 years old ONU with...

    I really wish that darn 12 years old POS ONU will catch fire so that lazy/greedy baskits at PTCL nearest exchange will catch fire so that they will eventually replace it with MSAG and over half of the colony can enjoy actual broadband instead of the dial-up era crap that they get during most of...

    Higher ping will also result in low upload speed. Youtube upload using VDSL doesn't go higher than 100-120KB/s. And torrents rarely go to 300+. Before ramazan torrents and uploading to google drive used to attain around 350KB/s. Now it mostly doesn't.

    If one of the main reasons for you to switch to VDSL is stable and lower pings for multiplayer gaming then you shouldn't. Pings are messed up on VDSL as well. I have been using warid's 4G for gaming since past month.

    Only a problem with PotTyCL AFAIK. Really messed up pings to most of the Europe as well as USA. Ranging in 300-450ms 500+ for locations even further. Also because of that high pings twitch streaming buffers like crazy. It will stutter once every 3-4 seconds. Been like that since start of Ramadan.

    [SOLVED] .::The Official Mega PTCL Thread::. -- A Sequel Without Drama!! || [All is well!]

    Depends on the budget as well as the amount of features you require. e.g Do you only want a Modem or want a modem+router with WiFi access or without WiFi. Right now I am using TPLINK TD-W9970 which supports VDSL as well as ADSL. If you plan to upgrade to VDSL sometime later then TD-W9970 will...

    [SOLVED] .::The Official Mega PTCL Thread::. -- A Sequel Without Drama!! || [All is well!]

    Nice :) The modems/routers provided by PTCL are literally the crappiest and half of the problems can be solved just by replacing them with some other modems/routers. TPLink products aren't usually considered very good compared to some other brands but even TPLink devices are waaaaaaay better...

    SNR drop from 24-25dB to 16-17dB when sync rate increases from 8 to 12mbps is pretty usual considering it's PTCL infrastructure but if it dropped again by 6-7dB then that isn't normal. Have you by any chance changed the ADSL modulation from ADSL2+ to G.DMT coz that will reduce the SNR by that...

    [SOLVED] .::The Official Mega PTCL Thread::. -- A Sequel Without Drama!! || [All is well!]

    What were the line parameters when the line profile was set to 8mbps? When changing to 12mbps+ there will be a significant drop (could be between 5-10dB) in line parameters on PTCL ADSL connections. Or were you getting higher SNR on 12mbps sync rate few days ago and SNR drop happened recently.

    Ptcl 4Mbps downstream Rate Problem

    Seriously speaking you were getting 3.9mbps before because modem was syncing at 4600 kbps instead of 4096. The overhead on PTCL is huuuuuuuge regardless of whether a connection is ADSL or VDSL. You need to ask/convince the relevant person in related PTCL exchange to increase the sync rate of...

    [SOLVED] TP Link TD 8951 WD custom firmware query

    Unfortunately no. TDW8951ND's firmware doesn't have that feature. If I remember correctly TDW8968 was one of the first Modem+routers that had that bandwidth control feature. Unless someone modifies and port 8968's FW to work on 8951 there isn't any option to get that bandwidth control feature on...

    [SOLVED] TP Link TD 8951 WD custom firmware query

    You don't even need to use a custom firmware on a router for that purpose. Just buy a TPLink wifi router that has options for bandwidth control. And you can apply bandwidth limit on IP ranges or individual IP address. Or you can apply global bandwidth limit for whole IP address pool except your...

    [SOLVED] PTCL broadband upgradation from Copper to Fiber optic, Need Help.

    Like murtaza12 said minimum package on VDSL is 8mbps. And chances of PTCL providing you a 4mbps or any other customized VDSL package is almost nonexistent unless you are a close relative of some very very very high ranking PTCL employee. Their packages for VDSL are kind of like fixed. They...

    looking for good internet to stream to Twitch on

    Any FTTH or PTCL's VDSL connection that has 3mbps or higher upload will do fine as long as it's properly configured. There is also a sort of routing problem from ISP's in PK to twitch's ingest servers so despite having an upload of 10mbps or higher you won't be able to stream at a higher than...

    Does it work in other non supported games that use p2p (peer-to-peer) matchmaking. e.g Dawn of War, Company of Heroes, Mass Effect 3 (multiplayer) etc.
