    Narowal. Flash Fiber is available in two areas so far and our area isn't one of them. No other option for fiber. There is a cable internet as well who pose as a fiber offering service but they heavily cap the bandwidth. DSL officer at exchange is saying that our area might be covered by next...

    ^ It's not just about speed (although the more the better). It's about connection stability, lower pings and frankly open to more options. But above all I want better upload speeds, 1MB is not cutting it. I am using 15MB and the highest upload speed can be gotten on adsl2 is just 1MB (on paper...

    AoA everyone. Need some advice and hlep. Since, there is no upcoming flash fiber option in queue in my area for a while I decided to upgrade to VDSL but helpline is saying that 'There is no VDSL in your area'. This is obviously not correct since lots of homes have VDSL in around our colony...

    Router suggestions. [Is there a way to put VPN settings to a router so my xbox connects through the router?]

    The title explains it all. I don't know what 'VPN clients and servers' are and what open vpn and LTPPs are. I have express vpn but that is only good for mobile and pc through their software. Any help would be welcome. Thank you.

    Hey. I need to ask something. PTCL people are about to lay "ONU (flashfiber)" lines in our area. I need to confirm if I convert to flashfiber, is my phone number going to be changed again? (It already happened when the whole conversion from ADSL to VDSL took place). Thank you.

    Thank you for replying back. I completely agree and my stats are kind maxing out of sorts. I get into these "disconnection loops" with stats fluctuations every couple of weeks or so. And I really don't want to sacrifice this somewhat stable connection with decent speeds on account of this...

    Thank you so much. There is something else, I tried to initiate the process and just randomly asked the 1218 guy about VDSL and as it turns out my area does have VDSL2. So, now I am thinking about converting to VDSL2. I would've already ordered it but the VDSL modem costs 4000 (I have old modem...

    Hello. I received a call from 1218 about converting my 6MB to 10MB at 2249Rs (which is the price of 8MB internet package). So, my question is, are there any hidden charges like we are getting 250 discount on all freedom unlimited call package. Would that discount still be applicable. Other...

    Actually, I am looking to upgrade within a year or so to a later generation but I will not buy higher end GPU anyway. Thank you for your suggestions, do you have a particular suggestion for 500 to 550w PSU? Obviously, gold certification will take me out of 12K range. So, any suggestions...

    Hello. It's been 5 days (including Sunday) and still haven't been upgraded to 6MB from 2MB. I called 1218 and they said that "your request has been stuck" and it would have to be withdrawn first before resending it again and then it will be upgraded. Got the same reply from calling local...

    . Full disclosure. I don't think local exchange walay know the difference between optic fiber and vdsl. They keep on calling it optic fiber. I think it's vdsl and I know it because of browsing pakgamers various thread pages. It's like this, the thick wire is coming straight from the fiber...

    Thanks for the reply. How would i change the DNS manually. I thought the only way you can change the DNS by going onto the modem page 192.168.x.x and then changing the DNS from advance settings.
