ramy58 wroteI can't believe you're still complaining. For years i have exceeded my quota and paid loads of money to these thieves. But finally i'll be able to roam the internet without a worry in my head.
I mean we've gone from 75000 2mbps 20 gb to 8mbps 60 gb 65000.
again i am not complaining about the monthly allowance, I too have suffered from exceeding my monthly allowance mid month.
But we are able to achieve higher speeds at least 2X of the maximum they are planning to offer is very available goal.
m_zeid wrotehaidcar wrotethe new plans are disappointing in terms of Speed 8mbps will still probably be the highest speed offered. taking into account that these upgrades rarely happen ( the last upgrade was 3 years ago).
its seems that VDSL is not being implanted, it would have increased the speeds 5X.
in terms of monthly allowance, the upgrade is fair. but speed wise, it's still very slow
are you kidding me?? the speeds are great, that is all what you can get from the current technology.
We heard nothing about implementing VDSL, so how you can expect ~20mbps speeds?
take for example Qatar, their dsl is also limited to 8mbps. If you want more than that you have no option but optical fibers.
I hope we get FTTH in 2 years or 3 max :)
VDSL is an upgrade to the current DSL technology that we have. it uses existing infrastructure, the only the modulation technique is the difference.
here is a quote from minster Nicolas Sehnaoui "Prediction 2013 #5- Allow and tariff VDSL technology to allow higher speeds for the 75% living under 2km from the CO"
this was on jan 6 2013. one of his predictions for 2013.
from this, it is clear that VDSL is ready to be implemented.
Again Why settle for less, when you can have more. such internet upgrades happen so rarely. i remember in 2011 when speeds when monthly allowance and speeds were quadrupled people were happy and thought this should be more thane enough. less than 2 years later people realized it is not the case.
