StormFiber (By Cybernet) FTTH Discussion Thread

That's up to you.

You can either use these DNS only on your PC, or for every device connected to the StormFiber router.

To use them on your PC, open up the Network and Sharing center, go to adapter settings, right click on the Ethernet adapter if you're connected through an Ethernet cable or right click on the wireless card if you're connected through WiFi. Click the properties option, a new window will open, scroll down and find IPv4. Leave the IP address fields blank so they're assigned automatically, click the DNS fields and add whichever one you feel like from the two that I mentioned earlier.

Once you have, keep clicking OK and close all windows.
Then, press the Windows Key + R at the same time and in the box type 'cmd'
(Without quotation marks)

Command Prompt window will open up, in that, type the following:

ipconfig /flushdns

Hit enter. Close the window.

Clear browsing history and cache from the past hour.

Open up the streaming website of your choice and try now.

The process might seem like it's going to take forever, but it can be done in less than 3 minutes.

Seems to be another issue then.
Let's hope it's something StormFiber support can resolve.

Good luck.

Hey can you send me the link that is giving you prblems...don't think u can paste it in the thread so just pm them to me and i will try them at my end as well

So i got storm fibre. everything great, youtube 1080 is a breeze.. BUT then tv show streaming is awful. no streaming link works properly. Too frustrating.

Technical support says my connection is all good and that they are checking the links. But that is ridiculous as with ptcl it used to work without any issue.

This is a deal breaker for me.........




Any solutions????

 

[Tarun]

Anything using the small-time packages like 2mbps? Some advice pls.

 

[hatim]

Can someone give me a definitive update. On YouTube 1080p and battle.net pings!!!!

On Overwatch, using WTFast, I get 90ms.

That's too good to be true imho. Correct me if I'm wrong, but isn't that geographically impossible?

Can you provide a screenshot for this statement, if it isn't a bother i.e.

Thanks in anticipation.

The servers we connect to are in Singapore. When using WTFast we get those servers in "America" whereas connecting directly will connect to USA servers.

90ms to Singapore is reasonable.

If someone's playing csgo on this, please post a screenshot of matchmaking server picker.

yes they are to new users , existing users will get upgraded from their next billing. The price is also reduced (triple play included).

 

[baqai]

Yup my package will be upgraded to 30/30 from the coming month, although its confusing, would this price include the TV and Phone as well since currently i am paying separately for the TV, I guess will know from September. Also these packages will be 24h speeds i.e if you are on 10mbps you will get it throughout the day, currently my package is 10mbps which upgrades to 20mbps after 5pm - 7am and on weekends its 20mbps 24/7 but when it's upgraded it will be 20 or 30 (which ever is close to my billing price, else they will ask which one i want to upgrade to) through out the day

Woha what ?? SF available in this area ?

I am surprised to hear that SF is here in Lahore and in our area. Please tell me in which block you're currently living and how much did it cost you to get that connection ? I am from Lahore as well.
Thanks

hey i got my 20 mb stormfiber connection yesterday....im having trouble using psn chat party...it keeps saying i cant use voice chat and that this may be due to nat-limitations....have you experienced a similar problem?do you know what i can do to fix it?

im trying to port forward the router right now....can anyone help me with that...im using portforard.com as a guide but there are something on the site that i cant understand

 

[samthetuffguy]

Please tell me where are you living in Lahore right now and how did you get StormFiber connection. I have already filled up a query form on their website but the said that their services are available only in Karachi. Nothing about Lahore was mentioned on their website.
I am expecting a quick reply to this. Thanks. And also tell me how much charges you paid them upfront plus monthly bill that you receive.

Don't know about battle.net pings, but YouTube 1080p is a breeze. I have the 20mb package and sometimes it easily streams 4k streams as well.

I will PM you the important details. Btw i am in Garden Town and StormFiber is currently only in GT and then expanding to Model Town in the coming month or two. Do not expect them to provide services in Lahore anywhere apart from these places.
