Well guys, i have given up. Launched a complain back in Ramadan regarding slow browsing. YES !! slow browsing meaning erratic behavior or sometimes page is un responsive. Can happen while surfing to any site. Anyhow, PTCL representative came and ironically when ever they came stupid internet becomes responsive for that particular hour 
. I would tell the guy that i will keep it on observation for the day and as soon as he leaves it starts to happen again. Downloading is fine, line parameters are ok Alhamdulillah but browsing . Khair, so after keeping this complain live for almost a month, the exchange guys started to beg for closure of the complain. Few visits happened, problem still persists and i'm tired of pressing 2 so i resolved it. I have no idea what to do now? FYI my connection is on VDSL. Can anyone let me know what should i do? just keep refreshing pages for the rest of my life or launch another complain which would lead to nothing but idiots visiting my place.

And does this issue occur on WiFi only, or WiFi and LAN as well?
I have changed the DNS to 8.8.8.8, Issue occurs on wifi and wired both. I have connected an external dual band router with ptcl modem. Though i have tried connecting to PTCL modem directly but still no luck.
tried that, issue is on every device mate. Although weird thing is, it seems to effect cell phones more. And yes i have tried removing the external router from the middle.
My modem is on dhcp with an ip of 192.168.10.1 same gateway whereas my external router is assigned as 192.168.2.1.
Bro these settings have been there since i have ptcl i guess. Never had an issue before,

I meant the IP assigned from PTCL.
I'm on PC now, so I can see you're using the 39.50 IP pool. Haven't heard any complaints from other users on this pool.
Have you tried personally visiting the exchange and explaining the issue to someone 'technical' over there? No guarantee that they will listen, but it's worth a try.
Nope i haven't tried that, yes i have been assigned that IP 39 wali. Well exchange having a technical guy is like sending tom dick or harry for resolutions. A guy came few days back and started putting blame on my external router saying that the gateway is different, can you imagine that? I told him my internet is slow and downloading is fine so how can it be an issue of gateway!!

Lol it's all good now. I asked on that day specifically cause PIE was having issues that time.
So what is the recommended DNS server these days? I was on Cloudfare before, but it was suggested here that Google is better.
Cloudfare having too many outages every now and then. Websites tend to load slower or not opening at all. Archive.org was completely blocked from their end worldwide. Google is performing relatively better at the moment.

Google.
Check 3rd post of this thread btw.
Default DNS sucks. Utter garbage. Times out way too often and doesn't work anywhere near as reliably as the big ones like Google and CloudFlare.
Probably because there is hardly any maintenance for local DNS servers. Works fine for a day and then times out the next day. They keep changing it.

The only valid thing from his pov he said in the video is AC dead since Black Flag. According to woke police that game was woke too. Welsh man in West Indies. So atleast he's consistent I guess lol -
Necrokiller:
It's based on an actual real life person so I don't think the woke police have a valid case here.

XPremiuM:
Meanwhile Ghost of Tsushima PC version is out now. Looks 100 times better than ASS Creed already. -
XPremiuM:
Did y'all see the new Assassin's Creed trailer? They finally made a AC set in Japan & then they put a negro as the male protagonist. Ubisoft is taking cues from Disney, and it isn't gonna end well for them, just like Disney. Go woke, go broke!

Necrokiller:
Phil should be held responsible for this shitfest too, just like Sarah, but it's highly likely that these decisions are coming from Satya. And this isn't even the end of it. More closures are coming.

SolitarySoldier:
if we are moving towards more and more popular trash across platforms that make billions for companies, I'm happy with all the barriers and exclusivity because at least that brings some pressure to create good stuff. -
SolitarySoldier:
Phil keeps talking about breaking barriers to gaming, making it accessible on all platforms yada yada, while killing competition and creativity at the same time. the fact that i actually believed him for a second lol
-
SolitarySoldier:
"These changes are not a reflection of the creativity and skill of the talented individuals at these teams or the risks they took to try new things" ... seems to me that's exactly what it is

XPremiuM:
Microsoft deserves all the hate they can get. Seriously i can't explain how much i want to curse them out.
-
XPremiuM:
They could've sold the studios instead of closing them, but the nazi bastards just didn't want competition down the road.
