After the process of peering of all major ISPs in Lebanon has completed, VISP decided to open access to our v-enjoy multimedia server and the VISP gaming network.

When Empty-salad peers with us at BIX (Beirut Internet Exchange).battikh wrotewhen will the lebanese expatriates get access? (a)
teodorgeorgiev wroteMan...
1. yes, there IX
2. It is something pathetic:
2.1. From what I saw during the interconnection process, none but IDM staff has some decent knowledge on BGP. I have no idea
where are all these 19 CCIES that battikh is talking about. Maybe they are working in the fast-food shops making manoushas, or driving taxies... Come on, guys, your place is in the ISPs!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
2.2. Low-speed links of 2Mbps over wireless, this is really pathetic. Ogero (and the "government") did not help at all, OF COURSE.
At least they should allow the peering parties to place fiber media from the IX colocation facilities till each of the members, then it would
be really a major progress.
As usually - when the other birds fly with the beak forwards, the Lebanese bird flies (ok, the bird of the Lebanese government) with the ASS forwards.
battikh wrotei think teo said it clearly, no one is willing to invest. they can't lay down fiber on their own... you have to do with what you have... laying fiber and making an mpls cloud would be the ideal thing, but well, lets keep dreaming...
are you sure that it was a switch and not a hub?rolf wroteWhen we used to have LANs with friend, Command an Conquer Generals would almost overwhelm the 100 mbps swtich :) there was no way of playing it over 10 mbps...
2mbps over wireless is a poor excuse for a IX...
maybe smth wrong with the switch thenBashLogic wroteare you sure that it was a switch and not a hub?rolf wroteWhen we used to have LANs with friend, Command an Conquer Generals would almost overwhelm the 100 mbps swtich :) there was no way of playing it over 10 mbps...

CC is latency hungry but not bandwidth hungry, I play it myself :D
BashLogic wroteOMG!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
BGP aint that complicated, I used to work with that stuff 10 years ago, now i cant recall much of it since im working in other fields nowadays :)
are you serious! are you absolutelly serious? are they really running the IX thru wireless? that is a facade!!
IX should be setup properly with fibers and redundancy doubling if not tripling the connection points and having redundant sites in other cities.
no where in the world have i seen how money disappears into thin air as in lebanon. all the financial grants & support always ending in the wrong pockets and the work is left undone. its the wild wild middle east...sad story. one would expect several thousand years of civilization history and knowledge would enlighten the people...

teodorgeorgiev wroteBashlogic,
there are two points in your post (as related to me), one logical and one unlogical.
The logical thing is that all you said is true.
The unlogical thing is that if these words have been said by me, then all other members - creams, fruits, vegetables, Shitting Blizzards and so on would jump on me accusing me in insulting Lebanon as a country, nation and so on, demand an excuse and etc... Go figure it???

Precisely!battikh wrote^^ he was referring to me
what he meant is that he agrees with you but if HE had said himself what you said, i would have started bashing him...
lashing ones tongue is something that a lebanese never runs out of, dont let such bother you, its a rare gift..possibly the only gift as well ;)teodorgeorgiev wrotePrecisely!battikh wrote^^ he was referring to me
