Which is the best ISP for bahria town rawalpindi/islamabad. I am currently using Zong 4g device and it is very expensive as it has limited data and the speed is slow. (PTCL has no optical fiber coverage in my phase so it sucks aswell)

Bahria town Phase 5 near the big red roundabout
PTCL has recently added new wiring and new DPs in Phase 5 with Fiber backbone so you will get solid connection. You must have noticed the new DPs and all the digging that was done for it and the Fiber cabinet. You can go for regular ADSL or even VDSL (if you need more than 1Mbps upload) Transformed packages (5Mbps 2000/10Mbps 2500 and so on), you should be able to get full speeds without any issue. PTCL is the only wired connection choice right now until CCP's case about Bahria Town not allowing them is resolved.

Yes i saw them. They even came for digging in my street and said this is for fiber wiring. But i called PTCL exchange Bahria Town last week for ordering and they said yahan koi fiber wiring nahi hae and it will take atleast 3 months for that. Plus they said you can only get upto 5mbps package and copper wire doesnot support more than this

Fiber isn't present yet but copper is connected to fiber cabinet now and result should be good. Visit exchange in person and talk to the technical guys in exchange (one is named Umar I think), their room is to the left inside exchange.

Riddle them with I need 10Mbps VDSL package (2500/month) and see what they say.

Guys at last i got my fiber GPON device installed today. They installer said that the other team will come and configure the modem tomorrow after you pay the fees i.e Rs:3000.
I need to know that whether this fees is mandatory or hes just trying to make money. Last time i got a connection , i didnt pay them any thing.
Those of u who ve ftth services by ptcl in bahria town please conform.

Any fees associated with your connection upgrade/installation are added to your upcoming bill. I don't believe workers are authorized to collect these charges. Call 1236 and confirm.

@ Sonicboom171.
I think you should do that. Converting to vdsl will help. If u mind showing your line stats then thats going to show the exact picture. But having said that, i guess 20mb is too much for copper to handle.

They're unofficial, but official at the same time.

Only available at the Bahria Town exchange, go there, ask for Hassan and upgrade yourself if you're on VDSL or GPON.

    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!

    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.
