Hey guys,

Due to some reasons I'm going to be living on the outskirts of Islamabad with 0 coverage from any ISP whatsoever, I've checked in with them.
I've always had Fibre and good internet and I'm not willing to compromise very easily and want to make my life easier everyday.
So I've laid down some options for myself:

Getting an Antenna with a 4G device and throwing a LAN down to my PC.
But ZONG has a 200GB limit per month.

Honestly feel like I'll just have to live without internet at this point.
Long gone are the days that I had to yell at PTCL employees (sorry guys) every single goddamn day of my life, I finally had some peace with Nayatel and a good PTCL Line man for a while but NO.
Let's just all move to the outskirts.

I think I'm going to go mental at this point, really.
Thank you all for listening.

I find it quite odd that G-12 has no coverage at all, when a friend of mine living in G-13 has Nayatel.

Are you sure there's not even basic PTCL copper infrastructure?

Beggars can't be choosers. You're getting ZONG 4G, which is pretty darn good but you also want an uncapped volume. That's no problem either if you could spend a hoard of money.

Could you do a traceroute to 8.8.8.8 and share the results here? I'm interested in seeing the latencies over satellite (which aren't good, as far as I know).

Total Rs 7000/- for Gen2 Dish (will be paid in installments)
Rs 3200/monthly for 8 MB unlimited package
Hmm nice.. On their website it says 3X speed.. U r not getting that..? Or is it not available here... On their fb page, they are advertising 3MB package gives 9MB speed.? I am confused.

    I dont think games have looked any better since 2019 onwards and they are performing worse and worse. Game developers have really dropped the ball.

    So while Playing Control, I found a journal which said that a bathroom is missing in Islamabad Beurue of Control. With Alan Wake and Control seems to be connected worlds. Even our city is in the universe as well. No wonder those Trail 5 and Trail 6 are haunted.
    did you know you can see @NaNoW credited in the game too ? :p

    What is peoples obsession with Battle Royale genre. 6 minutes to find a match, 3 minutes to setup a match, 2 minutes to land, 10 minutes for scavanging maybe 2 3 gunfigts and its over. Multiplayer landscape is looking absolute dogshit.
    I tried playing Apex Legends once. Couldn't find a gun for 5 minutes straight. If I found a gun, I couldn't find the right ammo for it. Got killed fighting with my fists. Uninstalled it the next day.

    I usually stay away from animes. Vinland saga changed the way i look at my life, and my experiences within. I recommend every breathing human being to watch this animated masterpiece at least once fromstart to finish.
    After I watched it, I never felt like i watched a show. It was a friggin journey. I got way too attached to Thorfinn and seeing him grow up and find himself and get rid of all the negativity inside of him was just pure bliss.

    With how great cod warzone has translated onto mobile. Mainstream Consoles have lost its value even further. Maybe console gaming was associated with TVs and how TV is not the primary source of media consumption anymore, consoles will lose its 200 million core audiences even further.
