PTCL 8 MB DSL Promotion (3k Per Month)

[RainbowChicken]

I called them yesterday but still haven't been upgraded. How long does it takes? Ptcl said 48 hours max is required for the upgrade.

Dude what r u? Network ninja lol

My SNR fluctuated lot before but now its rock solid. I can feel a more snappier browsing too. Will update if pings are better too

LOL. It is actually an old method, that I have been using for a long while now. I am surprised that people didn't knew about it. It requires a good connection, and won't work for bad quality connection. It DEFINITELY helps with pings so have some fun online in MP. I get 3-4 bars in BF 4 MP.

Well its magical. Not only did it fix my fluctuating SNR but it works for game pings too. Titanfall is showing 160 now. Maybe its just a lucky day or ur method is behind this

All the lag is gone from cod black ops 2 and I'm the host Most of time on cod :umad:

I also tried Gmdt mode, and pings on speedtest realy got reduced.
On karachi server it was 82, now its 64.
On isb server it was 180s, now its 111ms

Though not an online player, but it would definately save my few milliseconds on surfing

Salam All !

So finally got my connection upgraded to 8 MB around 12:30 AM today.

Applied for the connection this Monday 10:30 AM so took around 3 days and around 6 complains reminders and 2 separate complaints on 1218 for port upgrade and to get it sorted by the exchange.

getting 1MB on IDM and around 850-870 KB on Torrents. No visible change in surfing speed or site loading just the download speed has improved.

Still a very good deal to enjoy till December and for everyone continuously asking NO this is not a Unlimited connection till December its capped at 300 GB and from Jan 1st would be reduced to 100.

Are we going to be charged 1500 for the installation stuff?

Nope, I confirmed it from the CS rep while getting information for the package. The installation charges RS: 1500 are for new connections only not existing ones.

I don't know. I watched all the E3 conferences live and the stuttering has gone for me.

Gamespot = no stuttering at HD
GameTrailers = no stuttering at full HD
Twitch = It can stutter depending on traffic but usually smooth with no stutters at "Source" quality
Ustream = smooth at "Best" quality
IGN = Live streaming sucks on IGN, it was stuttering for me at 720p, but videos work fine.

Google Chrome works best for me.

i cant even watch gamespot at high quality dnt know why everything stutters but it does any help would be apreciated

In your DNS settings, change from the default to 4.2.2.1 and 4.2.2.2. Hopefully it will help a lot

[MENTION=125526]Nva1[/MENTION]! That has more to do with DNS configuration, not with your connection speed. Besides, "YouTube" streaming have always sucked bad in Pakistan. This is not a news.
[MENTION=1262]dockash[/MENTION]! Hopefully you won't face much problem if you are on ONU. Otherwise, you may face Random Disconnections or Random "Not Responding" issues (internet would remain synced but would stop transferring bandwidth, and all downloads/uploads will go to a full halt). You will have to lodge a complaint for your Phone Line (PSTN) from myPTCL to get it fixed.
[MENTION=57463]shariqhere[/MENTION]! SNR is being counted in 0.1dB. So your actual SNR is 43.8dB, which is pretty damn good. Its not 400.
