Speed is back to normal but idk if it is normal to get 4-6 mbps download and 1-2mbps upload when doing speed test to a European server (France) on a "25 mbps package".
Definitely not normal. Issues are still ongoing and will take a few more hours to fix.

A cable cut according to PTCL's FB page.

Anyways, any Battlefield player here who can confirm about this blockage of servers crap which is giving me headaches now. I can't connect to any of the European servers neither can ping them. What's going on? 1 out of 10 server which connects has 300+ ping. Pings to EU servers in other games such as PUBGM and Apex are absolutely fine. What's the issue with BF servers? Any guesses? It's been a month now.
P.S If I try to complain to them somehow, how will I make them understand this issue? :p Online chat agents are way too retarded to understand it.

PIE seems to be slowly returning back to normal.

Nayatel shifted me to TW routing briefly, and just around half an hour ago switched back to PIE. All seems okay now, browsing is much quicker than it was earlier.

Outage log:


1) PIE outage - Fiber cable cut in Karachi affecting PTCL customers and other dependent ISPs nationwide

Date: 24th June 2019
Severity: High
Time taken for resolution: TBD
Primary issues faced: Slow browsing / Slow downloads / Packet loss / High latency
Our whole office shit (all websites, mobile apps, backend systems) was totally down and inaccessible for a good 15-20min before slowly (read: high packet loss) returning back to normal.

I've never had any issues in battlefield 1. Getting 130 ping to EU servers and 60 to UAE servers (which are always empty).

Can you do me a favor please? Login from Battlelog and select BF4, then through these filters, send me a snapshot of what servers you get and their respective pings. Mine are like these in the image, most of them cannot be pinged and are the ones I cannot connect to. Rest of them are also around 200 where as previously they were below 170 especially the German ones.

Tried to place an order for PTCL Smart TV via the live chat (not in the mood to hear monkey's on the phone) and the guy says that the connection on my landline number is inactive.
(I'm one of the people who are still on the same old number)

Is their any download limit on PTCL???

Currently using 25mbps and usage is around 350GB planning to upgrade it to 50mbps because I will be sharing my connection with cousin family then the usage would be around 600GB.

Nope, I used around 1TB data within a month once but didn't experience any throttling so it is truly unlimited.

I'm facing a similar issue in SMITE, I am getting 330 ish ping in EU while i get 240 ish in NA. PTCL Routing has been screwed for about a month for me as well. Currently im using windscribe as a solution to fix this.
