user wroteI am in favor of more quota. I did not get the details of this improvement though. I can't find the details.
Anyway does that explain why ogero's latency doubled for me in jounieh?(they could be testing or rewiring)
anyway I wouldn't put too much faith in this. We placed a lot of faith in the cable 3 years ago and we speculated imaginary number. Our quota remained the same(basically uploads and downloads were merged and a bit was added) and we were given speed only to finish our quota faster.
Our internet copper based network is too outdated to handle a lot of simultaneous traffic...
The full details of the improvement will be announced on Friday the 23th at 10am at a press conference by the telecom minister(as he replied to a tweet asking about that)
but this is what we know so far, as shown in this table:
As for your latency, it could be from various reasons, someone tampered with your wire perhaps?(I had a similar encounter once when Ogero installed a new telephone line in the building and accidentally set mine to an old obsolete wire), could be that they are testing something? or it could be something local(your modem usually)
As you can see the numbers in the table are presumably download + upload combined(since this is how it was the last upgrade without any distinction mentioned)
and while yes, I do agree our copper-based network is outdated, let's not forget we had the same worry when Ogero introduced unlimited usage nights and we thought we the QoS was gonna sink bottom at that time, but surprisingly the network was completely unaffected and this makes sense considering Ogero controls most of the bandwidth of the country, so they are(out of all ISPs) the most capable of handling a large simultaneous traffic load.
The question that bugs me is how are they gonna deliver the minimum 2mbit/s speed if alot of people that use Ogero now(including myself) have heard that their line cannot support more than 1mbit/s
ramy58 wroteLet's just hope that 2M unlimited package doesn't have BS FUP. Because if it doesn't, then this will be the perfect package (for me). I don't need 1080p to enjoy something. I just don't like it when stuff is limited.
I plan to get that offer as well, and yes the same question wanders in my head, will it be FUP enforced?
but considering Ogero didn't implement FUP on unlimited night usage I feel this offer will follow the same trend. I suppose at the conference if the minister doesn't mention an FUP for the unlimited plan then it's safe to assume there won't be one.
Another question is whether the unlimited night(12am-7am) will stay for the limited options when the new plans are activated.
This half-month will bring about alot of information and hopefully good news :)
