do you think our land lines can hold 20 mb ?
i am on 6 now i did some calculations max dsl speed i could get is around 10
i think they should change the out dated adsl technology instead of giving us more speed using same technology

i'm really disappointed, i was hoping for 1gb 10$ or 5$ 500mb.
I am to talk for my self, but I don't think many people pay more than 20$ for 3g, and now they'll give you 4.5gb for the extra 7$.
Pretty smart, many will fall for it.

I think they should lower their personal profit. The infrastructure isn't that great, but it's ok.

Why have they increased the whatsapp bundle price to 5$...
The minister asked for decreased prices,all they did is add a bit more data (and increase the price mentioned above).

What's the use of all this if the service is shit? I'd pay much more if they give proper service. But no...

We didn't even need the extra 50mbs, I don't even use half of the 200mbs on a busy month :P

yes, me: what new dsl offers?

the minister said that all internet prices (mobile and dsl) going to be lowered , I was wondering if someone got some news, apparently not.

just to be clear : “The Telecommunications Ministry will reduce the internet prices gradually in accordance with the law and I will submit to the Cabinet proposals to reduce the cost of services, and this requires a decision from the government. But I hope that this proposal will not be blocked for political motives,” Harb said during a news conference.

It smells fishy!
Every-time Mr Harb has to launch new prices, he re-activate the ''illegal'' internet thingy so people forget that he promised new ADSL prices and speeds
Edit: Looks pretty much like last year promises of a ''near ADSL upgrade'' that we never saw.
Dunno why TVs and medias are not talking and asking Mr Harb about the new prices? They are just satisfied that whatsapp prices have changed and that's all?
Silentcontrol
minister of telecommunication is live on LBC i'll try to keep you updated about the internet and skip the useless political religious BS
Silentcontrol
sorry to inform you but they only talked about telecom/internet for 30 second not joking nothing new was said all promises that prices will drop ( no date) fast speed internet to 85% of lebanon by the end of 2017( no further explanation was said)
it took me long to write the post compared to how much they talked about it

This country is very problematic , i really dont know which side to blame for our mess , see u at the end of 2017 maybe than

watch from 22:35 to 25:07
here he talked 2.5 mins only about internet
haidcar
In every interview, he does that. talk for an hour about politics, and dedicate a minute or two for his actual duty.
Same goes on his twitter, 95% politics related 5% telecom related.
Simply because he has no clue about telecom or technology. Something expected at his age of 72. without his advisors he is nothing.

You could be 30 and not understand the problem is not age it is placing the wrong people at wrong position

So if you guys watched the video it's about "wireless fiber" instead of ftth

So no new speeds, just a possible drop in prices in XX days/weeks/months or centuries
They should be ashamed with actual pricing, the 8mb/s should be at 30$/month

even if it is 30$ most people can not enjoy it because of bad infrastructure
