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 :)

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.

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.

[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.

    BTW, i started Ghost of Tsushima, and it got me hooked within the first couple of minutes. I already know It's gonna be a memorable experience. This is how you make a proper Samurai game. Not that SJW game Ubisoft is making.

    That's still higher than it's total play length. A 5 hour campaign for a $50 game is downright scammy.

    Consoles were my main platform ever since Atari 2500. But now I think it's not worth it as PC especially with DLSS deliver far smoother performance. AW2 on console didn't even had ray tracing and ran below 30fps. Similar issues plagues DD2 on consoled.
    The cross gen era really made people think 60fps would be a new standard lol

    Welp, done with Hellblade 2. Thoroughly disappointed. Such a nothing burger after the unique experience of the first game.

    I have a PS5 but I am not satisfied with the experience. I am currently saving for a 4080 64 GB rig soon. Bit will wait for Pro if performance improves. This gen has been so bad I don't plan on buying consoles anymore for AAA gaming.

    As per WCCF Tech review, Xbox Series X doesn't even maintain a consistent FPS and sometimes drops into the mid-20fps range. That's unacceptable, tbh.

    Gradually transitioning from console gaming to PC as the games are not worth it. 6 hours of Hellblade 2 is just not worth the $50 price tag.
    Score 1 for game pass. I wouldn't pay full price for this at retail either.

    Just downloaded my first legit digital PC game on GoG at a discount of $8: Two Point Hospital. The same team behind Theme Hospital Two Point Studios now part of Sega. And I am having more fun than most recent AAA games except of course BG3.

    Still, I don't like either Sony or Microsoft as they are focusing more on corporate greed than delighting customers. PC gaming is best of gaming and worth every penny.

    PC Gamer score of 58/100 for Hellblade 2??? Is it really worse than Gollum that was 64/100? Microsoft games can't even come close to high scores of Sony exclusives apparently.

    About the Microsoft (and Sony) debate, I feel both have become too greedy and losing their minds over corporate greed. Personally, I will never buy any console next gen and switch to PC gaming where democracy reins.
