I live in Q block where there's no VDSL whereas P block which is on the other side of road has VDSL :p
I just hope they refund my installation fee because the people in exchange already had me sign the job completion form. I did inquire that why should i sign it when job is not even started yet, they said its for our sake and hamne konsa bhag jana hai etc so i signed it LOL
good you cancelled your order if there is no vdsl in your area

The website shows that my area exchange is upgraded which is why their rep at 1218 told me that i will get a VDSL connection but lineman and person at exchange said it will be ADSL.
Sorry for going off topic, any one from lahore knows what other options do i have for a better internet and TV? Actually i am on rent so fiber so a no as you never know when you have to change house.

IP can be changed without reboot.

Which modem is it?

Has PTCL started automatically upgrading customers with old/discontinued packages to new ones? I was on 10Mbps (was getting 11248 Kbps) and now it's showing 14393 (my line doesn't support 15Mbps).

Edit 1: Internet troubles started, browsing is dead slow, stops every few mins. Backend issue or cable cut?

Guys while i am playing the tug of war with ptcl, just wanted to share that Stormfiber is offering fiber to home in lesser price than ptcl. 6000 installation with 1 month free, after second month, price for TV phone and 10mbps is 2000. Tv is analog tv so not digital but far better than your local cable tv.
Regarding the tug of war, they say my withdrawal request is not in system :p Even though one day before their own rep told me that you generated withdrawal request at 9:59 AM. I told them to check my call as it is recorded.

On a side note, i have made my mind that even if they do not return me installation fee, i will still get my connection closed because of their poor customer services and bad ADSL internet. I am ready to bear a loss of 3000 than have tension headaches every day.

How much access do you have to the ONT? Opening ports, changing dns, lan/WiFi settings etc?

    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.

    Started Dead Island 2, and i find it pretty lame. The story is shit. The characters are either cringe or bland (all 6 of them), The gameplay isn't fun. Even the goddamn zombies don't behave like proper zombies. They're all fast & intelligent unlike how zombies are supposed to be like. Any fan of "zombie" genre cannot possibly like this shitfest of a game. Dying Light 2 was million times better than this shit.
