it's march 9th
still far away from the end of month
personally I am happy with my connection (from 2am till 7am)
hussam
lol, they disconnected me for a minute then throttled me to 112kbit per second. if they don't have much bandwidth, stop taking more customers.
hussam
I hate this flaky connection. I used over 2GB so far trying to download a 154MB file with all the disconnects....
hussam
seems there is a route change and facebook won't open anymore...
nuclearcat
Should open fine. Can you give me more details about route change? Ill check it.

ping is always above 110 now and whois 1.0.0.0 says australia...
I used to have 60s or 70s ping max...
nuclearcat
1.0.0.0 just dummy ip of router, should not matter.
ping on real ip higher ~30ms, but at same time it is bypassing QoS and protected from DDoS.
I will check things and will see if there any other complaints.
hussam
well it's dead slow at night and now facebook won't open.
can you at least take a look at facebook problem please? :)
ballad
pings won't stabilize until 1am
2 months ago it becomes stable after 11am, hope things change
hussam
hmm. facebook opens through https only now.
nuclearcat
One important upgrade planned, but hardware stuck at customs.
ballad
just take some tawook and shawerma with you next time you visit the customs and all will be just fine

Living in bshemoon and currently using what I think is VISP (username they gave me is technobyte19) and it's currently seriously horrible :P when I first subscribed it was great but it's turned to crap and all I get is "hala2 men sheflak" excuses when I call them.
nuclearcat
As you see in name - it is not VISP
hussam
900ms latency right now and really the only ISP still at only 256k/33 dollars a month.
ballad
i still wait for 1am to start my gaming session
and we're in 2013
ballad
dial-up connection atm
and pings are in 1000's
hussam
I'm getting a max download rate of 16kbytes/second at night on my 256k connection.
All other ISPs upgraded their users to 1mbit or more. we're getting slower lol.
Adnan
No offence here but from what I'm seeing this ISP hasn't even upgraded its speeds and it has horrible ping, why are people still using it ? Does VISP has anything special ?
hussam
yes, it's what most "cable guys" use. VISP is 99% suppliers for your local neighborhood cable guys and 1% direct customers.
