Hello, The title says almost everything, but I will make myself clearer about the subject: What does a person have to do, in order to acquire a (I will say...

i didnt pull any random numbers my apply with Ogero D:1024/U:256 date: 03/03/2009 and now 06/04/2009 i called them today they said they gonna install this week if not please call us" wmenshouf el sabab lal te2kher" and i test ogero as i said before on 265kb/s not good for game 800+ms and dc maybe my friend line have problem but am gonna wait to check on my own line

Guys, I didnt figure it out yet! no one is able to give me a straight answer...

my point was simple the time process is not on our favour therefore i have to go with an alternative as mobi is pretty okay! now Flyingwizard, u say u dont think its faster... well they are 2 things... first 128kbps is same with any ISP, the only thing that matters in the latency/ping, and that as well differ from each person location, building condition and blackbone luck! as well when u play online the quota is not a big deal u wont use more than 30 to 50 Mb a day

Namasensei it is easy you want internet to play online games not to download go Ogero(blink)

wizard, don't get crancky this quick, walaw^^
I don't know if there are some random numbers getting thrown here, but lets talk a bit tech here.

I'd like to try and analyze why Ogero have (selon you) the best latency in online gaming:
Ogero's plan is not that good on paper compared to the other companies (no double speed? no free quota?) I don't know if they changed, but last time I saw it was like that.
If true, Ogero's plan bad, people will go to other companies, or to companies they used to work with before adsl (some people, actually most people in lebanon don't like change, more of a conservative society).
I can continue and give statements just to speculate on one thing:

There is less users on ogero's internal network compared to other companies
There is less bandwidth usage on ogero's infrastructure because of the shitty quota
etc.. you can imagine the rest...

Conclusion, well figure it out yourself, network that can manage 1000 users is managing 800, compared to another network that can manage 1000 users is managing 1500. (ok here are random numbers, just to illustrate)
Maybe nuclearcat could give us statistics on that, I don't know if he has the information.

But for me, that's how I see it... for normal users (those who do NOT play online) they don't care about latency, hence go for other companies than ogero.

Lebscream I think you have bad karma.
Your tickets and support calls always seem to go to /dev/null

proners

i'd say it goes to /temp then cron runs and deletes them :p

@ Crazy: Exactly what I mean :D

You know I don't mean you by this, but the topic is for Online Gaming in Lebanon.

I never said Ogero was the best in overall service, just for online games ;)

Namasensei

hey guys ... i am currently playing an online game " world of warcraft " on an unlimited but rly slow internet... my father is using ogero 1mbps and its a rly fast connection but the only problem is that its a limited connection . all i wanna ask is that if i play world of warcraft on the ogero connection , will it be downloading and finishing the account or online gaming doesnt count as downloading ?:)

crazy

online gaming doesnt count as downloading ?

you wish...

There was a post somewhere stating how much bandwidth does world of warcraft use.. you can look for it, there is bunch of post talking about online gaming and wow:)
But in a nutshell, online gaming DOES count as downloading and uploading, you'll have good latencies playing on ogero (or so I hear) but if you play a lot, you might easily go over the limits.

edit: By the way, welcome to the forum, you can go introduce yourself in the introduce yourself part:)
