    Bought a $100 Steam Card and CS:GO from them, didn't have an issue with either.

    Last I checked, talks were on-going with Omantel to find a solution towards i3d ME servers. Not sure if the trial has started. Keep an eye out.

    (lmao) Management is too busy in wasting money on marketing and commercial avenues to even care about the technical aspects. I'm already looking for a way out of here. :mushy:

    Sorry brother I can't help you there. But I'm sure the customer service guys can help you configure it. Or perhaps people here.

    For PTCL, AFAIK Valve has peering agreements with Etisalat which PTCL is directly connected to, whereas i3d peer with Omantel. PTCL doesn't use Omantel for data transit the last time I checked.

    Maybe they have started hiring people from PTCL. (lmao)

    Sorry bro. Was busy and didn't log in to PG for almost a month. Can you elaborate your statement? Like are they using PIE now? As for TW1 itself, I don't remember anything happening to TW1 during January so most probably an issue in the national network. All mobile operators (except Ufone) get...

    Any idea how much custom will be imposed if I buy a watch online. The manufacturer uses UPS as their designated courier service. Watch is valued around 250 USD. Jshak

    [OT] .::The Official 3G/4G LTE Thread::.

    Your first point is correct. Though both PTCL and TW have peering agreements with Google (and similar content providers, e.g. Facebook), the difference in ping is due to the fact that both have different commercial agreements i.e. depending on physical link feasibility and financial (read cheap)...

    IMEWE maintenance finished ahead of time on 26th Nov. So are your pings to ME back to as they were previously?

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

    Before taking a maintenance window, max international bandwidth utilized for a certain time is noted, and only then a decision taken whether we need more bandwidth on other submarine cables or not. Currently there's plenty available so maintenance activities in the past couple of weeks haven't...

    Unfortunately thats the reality regarding PTCL. They don't even understand their normal customer base and requirements. Too busy counting money they get from selling corporate services. I never used PTCL before joining them, and still game on a local ISP that uses TW at their backend. (lmao)

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

    These things are at the discretion of the ISP. Both TW and PTCL only notify their corporate clients. Who in turn may notify their own customers however they want. The above notification seems like one of those. Having said that, he is correct. Though the actual activity ends on 28th Nov.

    Like I said there are a few maintenance activities going on so might have been temporary. Having said that, if the low ping route was intentional, then it will most likely restore around 28th Nov, unless PTCL finds a different route.

    Don't get used to it though. Few maintenance activities going on behind the scenes lately so might just be temporary. (lmao)

    No problem. Also perhaps I should've added the following to the previous reply. 2 hops may be within the same network and registered by the same company at the same physical address, but could be configured in two entirely different places (i.e. ISB and KHI). Which ofcourse then involves...

    [OT] .::The Official 3G/4G LTE Thread::.

    This is correct when you talk about wireless or last-mile network. But delays within the core network (like the one within LdN's network in above example) are almost exclusively caused by a combination of un-optimized routing (amateurish) and configuration mismatches (bad planning). Access...

    Sorry man. I don't see anything happening at the back-end in the near future that will make a difference to gaming. Like I said your best bet is to get in touch with MMBB NOC (Multimedia & Broadband NOC), because customer support or exchange guys will never be able to even understand this.

    Unfortunately that Oman traffic is not going to effect pings to ME. The only thing you can do is pester PIE for better routes (which they do have actually). Ask them why the traffic is going all the way to Singapore, then to US, then to EU, then finally to UAE - according to traceroutes. Ask...

    Damn man. I thought Aguero was my captain but when I saw the points after GW5 it was Kane. My points would've been 96 instead of 76. :flame:
