    Anyone got any info on the Shoq box? Where did I read that it's based off a box Etisalat uses in the UAE? No way I'm going to pay 6k for something I've already paid 6k for (the current box) that does the same thing as the current box. Also, I don't like Pakistani channels anyway, so...

    Nopes. No effect. Calls don't really take a lot of spectrum anyway (unlike data). Phone operators prioritize voice calls (IMS channels) over data using QoS. You can have zero functional data but voice calls would work (I see this with Jazz in my part of Bahria - zero functional data but calls...

    That's really good. I guess you were on their 20Mhz spectrum with those upload speeds. But also, the speedtest conducted in the first screenshot and the second screenshot show different times of the day (and hence, congestion and other things).

    I think the highest upload speeds I've seen online, for 4G, are in the ballpark of 40 and 50Mbps, something Jazz also manages to attain because that's the maximum real world upload speed you can get on 20Mhz (and 4G supports a maximum single chunk of 20Mhz - anything extra, and you need...

    I know the Imtiaz in Pindi uses Cybernet and they routed everything through PIE - I'll see if I can go there and test. These pings look decent - I'm adding ~20ms extra for Pindi/Islamabad, which make it almost as good as TW (and in some cases, even better than TW), and definitely better than...

    Upload link carrier aggregation. U L C A Carrier aggregation on uploads, AFAIK, is not a priority for any operator worldwide. They tend to focus more on downloads (give our share of uploads to downloads in real world scenarios).

    True. But it's a pain. Somehow, despite Google's offerings being simpler, they're definitely prettier. Sure they can be better, but... there's something about the Pixel experience which you don't necessarily get on the other OEMs (mostly the interface/visuals).

    About damn time. Jazz still messes up in Bahria. Zong's signals don't work as well as Jazz's when they're poor. And I haven't been able to get VoLTE on my Pixel 4 (I need a new phone, but not Samsung cause of the bloat, even though they're compelling devices... And expensive).

    So, a few things: 1. caller ID spoofing: you can actually do that. Sometimes, people use a different number and when you call back, that number is invalid. Yes, it happens in Pakistan (I know UBL has these things where if a staff calls you, it appears to come from a Ufone number but when you...

    Actually, both are usable for 5G. The question is whether they choose to use it or not (and whether the appropriate hardware is available for use by the customers). If you look at most high-end phones (and this is a very big if), you'll see they tend to accomodate numerous frequency bands from...

    Download/upload latency worsens when you're ACTIVELY using the network and saturating your link. If you use 4G, you'll see it's worse. It's even worse on 3G. Fiber still has much lower latency. I don't know what's normal, but in my experience, the download/upload latency WHILE the test is...

    Try overriding the DNS server. Since you're on Android, you can download various DNS changing apps and use Google DNS. See if that helps (it might, it might not).

    Does anyone with a Xiaomi Redmi Note 12 have wifi calling on Jazz? My mum's got that phone and it's not on her device (but thought of checking in here first before spamming 111).

    Depends. People around Pindi Isb get around 40ms. People around Lahore, I'm guessing, would get around 35ms. People around Karachi get around 20ms.

    Fiber ALWAYS has the lowest latency amongst all mediums. DSL can add anywhere between 10ms and 40ms (depending on fastpath and whatnot). Wireless (4G) can add about 15ms instead (but I know you're not using wireless). Wifi will probably add 1 or 2 ms extra (but that's not the point of your...

    Pixel 4, Zong and Jazz, carrier aggregation works. I would suppose the newer Pixels would work as well (no idea about VoLTE though)
