Is there a way we can buy V-Points online? via credit card or through any person OTHER than my service provider...??

It's incredible that I have to beg him for him to reset my FUP... As if I'm not paying him for it...
"ma fineh kell marra a3mela.. ma ba2a ktir ta3mel download" -_-
tab fineh kabber l ishtirak? I want more.. we are 7 people at home and each of us has 2 devices connected to the internet..
"la2 ma fik hayda aktar chi" (1MB)

not only that after dozens of calls and negotiations he finally agrees and charges me 10$ for 700 V-points which he recharges and uses to reset my account.

btw.. 700V-points cost less than 10$ because 1000V-points for real ip cost 10$ but I'm willing to pay 15 and even 20$ as long as he freaking sells me the damn V-points...

when I'm under 100% FUP the ping for gaming is stable only after 1am till approximately 1pm of the next day.

please answer the first question.. thanks
Connection is dead since 9AM. VISP is really going down the drain.
why people keep using VISP ?! it sounds horrible ..how does FUP even apply on a 256 conx ?!
Tarek, because most cable guys sell VISP accounts.
but yeah, it's horrible. We're talking mid 90s connections here. at night, you get half the 256kbit.
only time I get stable ping is 1AM to 6AM. At 6AM, it starts dying again.
my online game uses port 2000. maybe port 2000 is throttled...

Some of us who doesn't want to bother getting land phone lines are stuck..

I know VISP has the bandwidth and can afford giving us decent connections... they just want to save money.

I have been having this weird problem with VISP lately

When I visit joomla based websites on VISP, the loading time is just insane !!!
Most of the time the website loads with most of images not loading on the website.

Other times I get the mighty 504 Gateway timeout page and i have to reload the website

I have been developping a joomla website and what a pain it is to try to edit/update the website with crazy slow loading times and 504 errors.

First i thought it was a server side problem (im with 1and1.com) I contacted them and did some test and found out there are no problems with 1and1

The i tested the same website with IDM, Sodetel and Ogero

and what do you know ... everything is very normal, super fast loading times and not even one 504 Gateway timeout error.

Anyone encountering the same problem ?

I have VISP at my office and Home, i already asked my internet provider at work to switch to Spidernet (another ISP like VISP with good speed)

Now im thinking of doing the same at home.
I don't exclude completely what you said, but I doubt Joomla has anything to do with it. What seems more probable is that there's a problem with the connection between VISP and your web host.

I would compare some traceroutes from several ISPs to 1and1, maybe something would appear here. And not just your website. Try a few others you may know are hosted there as well. Although, ultimately I doubt there's much you can do on your side.

If you ever do decide to launch the investigation, please feel free to share results here.

Any conclusions ???
Do you have real ip and can i have full URL of joomla website?
nuclearcat wroteDo you have real ip and can i have full URL of joomla website?
Dear nuclearcat, i have PMed you the details

I don't have a real ip
Well after 2-3 days, i think VISP has the worst customer service ... Not to say inexistant customer service.

I emailed them the problem, i called and explained and nothing, no reaction, no phone call ... Nothing.

Finally i just switched to Spidernet and the service is just great and at least my pages are loading properly.

Just wanted to give you a heads up, dont lose your time and energy with VISP.
[22:52:09] Server latency: 127 ms
[22:52:32] Server latency: 12661 ms

in my online game...
Still i am checking issue, bad side, i have to travel for 1 week. I have to replace proprietary garbage with my own software, it is not withstanding load. Worse if it is Ogero issues, it will be much harder to fix.
There is pending installation of new equipment also, but i dont know terms. It should help to make things more stable.

but it was ok two weeks ago :) what changed?
If it was something changed - it will be easy to fix. But bad thing - nothing was changed, except online firmware upgrades for 2 shitty devices (they are updated automatically by vendors).
I suspect just growing load or equipment malfunction. Two proprietary devices giving me bad times since 2 month, and they may be the reason.
apparently my connection will be discontinued for complaining about my 2000+ ms latency. this might be for the best. maybe it is an incentive to get a better connection elsewhere.
the website is used to log in to is now working
ballad - which website?
hussam - probably it is best approach, this days impossible to provide satisfying latency for realtime gaming and keep connection cheap for some areas.
nuclearcat wrotehussam - probably it is best approach, this days impossible to provide satisfying latency for realtime gaming and keep connection cheap for some areas.
I would have gladly paid more for a better connection (even double). I went to VISP building 5 weeks ago and asked if I could pay for a better connection. they kept sending me between two people who kept saying ask the other guy.
You guys have a bad marketing problem.
if a customer goes to you and offers to pay double and some guy sitting on a desk says he doesn't know what account types there are, what are you leaving for people who have been loyal customers for over 4 years?
I was with a reseller. Samir or whatever his name was suggested I become a direct subscriber. so I left the reseller and become a direct subscriber. now things changed and direct subscriber is bad. Excuse my antics but don't you think someone who was a loyal customer for 4 years deserves an opportunity to upgrade his account type?
Patrick suggested DSL from VISP but if cable is this bad, DSL is going to be much worse.
hussam - maintaining wireless as we did before becoming very hard now, due legal pressure(it means more money spent for paperwork and etc, than real wireless improvement). When i come back (next week), if you want, i can try to search what is a problem. It might be local problem on your VISP link wireless.
