MohMokdad wroteI was an IDM user but in the summer my plan was automatically upgraded to 4 mbps unlimited but i didnt want that, so i changed to sodetel hopefully to subscribe to the 16 mbps package. I didnt know back then that the telephone line couldnt handle that speed and there was a lot of problems so i preferred to subscribe to the 8 mbps package.
Here's my experience:
1, From 9 am to 2 am the internet is shit, barely 1 mbps and a lot of sudden drops.
2, When using IDM (Internet download manager) my speed reaches about 850 kb/s ( All the day long )
3, My central is near me ( ~900 m)
4, Ping is good ( 60 ms to ookla server and 100 ms to dota 2 server )
5, I have never been FUP'ed although i download a lot during the night everyday.
Well Sodetel is a decent ISP that is not to be blamed for the bad internet experience because it is doing all it can.
The solution lies in the hands of the MOT and Ogero.
Feel free to ask me anything.
I am subscribed to the 1.5M Unlimited connection. I only got decent download speeds the first month. After that I was limited to 30-60KB/s with 300ms latency, then I started getting 30-40s with 500ms ping. Now I'm getting 15KB/s (not per download, this speed is being shared between downloads) with 3000+ms latency, lots of connection drops, if I restart my router, it sometimes doesn't even connect at all. My downloads are always corrupted. I cqn barely send whatsapp texts. I know I'm FUP-d, but my cable guy who is known to have the crappiest connection in yhe area, has faster FUP speeds on his slowest 512K 18$/month plan.
I have posted to Sodetel's page numerous times, they do not admit it being a technical issue. Let alone that, I can't see a single positive comment on their page. Everyone is complaining about bad customer service and support.
Meanwhile Ogero users have one of the most stable speeds and latencies ever.
