wow nice you are using ptcl vdsl now? if gpon is available in your area better go for it stormfiber
Yep using VDSL 25mbps and it is stable most of the time but sucks when it comes to watching live streams or gaming. GPON is currently not available in my area, it is either VDSL or World Call cable but hopefully Stormfiber makes it to my block. Currently they are live in D2 and E1 block while I am in F2 block so lets hope that my block is under their radar.

I have a separate number for landline that doesn't have any internet services attached to it however in the last bill I noticed that PTCL has associated a 5mbps internet service with this number without my consent and I am being charged extra PKR 1250 for it. I didn't even ask them for internet services for this number. These scammers are on another level. Sent them an email so hopefully they sort this crap out.

I am just surprised to see that PTCL has set your line for 100mbps and with 8ms delay your overall ping might be around 12-15ms. Do you ever face any disconnections as the SNR margin is less than 10?
No disconnections happy with the speed also..... ping is 13ms to local servers................In my opinions PTCL can do wonders all depends on their mood

Even if you go by their office and tell them to discontinue they will keep sending you bills despite unsubscribing. Guess what, it's been 8 months and i get bills every month to this date despite telling them to discontinue my phone, DSL. :laugh1:

That's how those niggas roll.

If the service is installed on your home adress so you have to clear the ptcl dues.

I am just disconnecting ptcl with the phone line but they are saying to bring the owner but he is not here anymore.. So I cannot do anything..
Yes I am using restream.io to stream on twitch.. Directly streaming to twitch doesnt give me more than 4Mbps upload speed..

150 GB (10 am to 6 pm), hmm I don't know how much bandwidth I even use lol. I'm more of a day time user, stream stuff and download at the same time in the morning & afterwards. Torrenting full night.

My location is Sector G-8/2, ISB.

Over 2TB [emoji33] isn't that over the capped limit (FUP) LOOOL? I'm sure I have not crossed the 1TB on ptcl ever lol. But now, I'll have 15Mbps on upload as well, the story can be different as I'll be able to focus more on my iPT Seeding hehe.

Can you ping 188.42.141.252 for me kindly.

    I have a PS5 but I am not satisfied with the experience. I am currently saving for a 4080 64 GB rig soon. Bit will wait for Pro if performance improves. This gen has been so bad I don't plan on buying consoles anymore for AAA gaming.

    Consoles were my main platform ever since Atari 2500. But now I think it's not worth it as PC especially with DLSS deliver far smoother performance. AW2 on console didn't even had ray tracing and ran below 30fps. Similar issues plagues DD2 on consoled.
