What you mean by that? sorry but I am unable to understand your point here..
i wanted to know that can we get 128 kbps DDL speed on a 512 KBPS connecftion which gives 50 kbps

Yes you can, but only on a Dedicated CIR link, which cost hell a lot!
Hey man what is on the PTCL portal Entertainment

No big difference, it's just matter of choice but I did heard some good reviews about MT880 performance that's why I picked that up and so far it's working really great for me (it's easy to setup up port forwarding on it too).

and do u get routed thru a NAT (by ptcl) or u get ur own ipv4 or v6 ip...coz rapidshare/web site hosting etc need a direct ip (doesn need to be static tho)

(asking only bcoz rapidshare mostly says ur downloading even if ur not,,,juz wanted to kno if this happens with ptcl)

perhaps better than Huawei MT882 and HG-510!

Huawei MT882:

Huawei HG-510:
http://www.huawei.com/products/terminal/products/view.do?id=89
Shiro DSL805EU
http://www.shirocorp.com/product_Broadband_DSL805EU.htm

(ptcl is currently supplying huawei mt882, hg510, shiro dsl805eu and ZTE 831 series)

ZTE's modems' upstream is 1mbps and downstream is only 8mbps compared to huawei's and Shiro's 26Mbps

any feedback wud be appreciated coz im gonna have ptcl dsl soon, and i really hope zte na aye

oh, heres a wired pakistan forum link (google cache, bcoz there site got hacked)

http://66.102.9.104/search?q=cache:...st+ptcl+modem&hl=en&ct=clnk&cd=2&client=opera

it really shows that shiro might just be the best modem ptcl offers!

My PTCL is acting wierd. Downloading at 6kb/s or less ... it was fine a while ago ... downloads good, playing CoD4 on MBL server.

I can play over there right now with no problems. Webcam streaming from states no problem. Downloads like ****, speedtest wont work. Ill try switching to the USB port. The downloads I did was using that, not Ethernet port.

And got hte Shiro modem, looks nice yea.

My problem is supposed to be in the DSL Filter attached to the phone line.

I like the customer service. The came to connect in 2 days, called up in the morning at around 9am telling that they have solved the problem and will come anytime.

I never expected this from PTCL. Good service.

No PTCL logo on my modem though :(

PTCL provide the dynamic IP, so your rapidshare won't complain about that "Your IP is already in used" problem.
