xazbrat I am not encouraged now since I have an Ogero connection http://arabnet.me/what-should-startups-expect/ All non-Ogero DSL subscribers will see an immediate offering of new Hi-Speed packages. Ogero DSL subscribers will see a certain delay, as the MoT seems to have certain plans for Ogero. We are not sure what these plans are, but we do not exclude the possibility of the creation of the long awaited Liban Telecom as stipulated in Law decree 431 / 2002. I'll wait until I hear what the decree says before I officially panic though
yasamoka No Skype? Easy, use SIP clients. Much cleaner. More compatible. Run on all platforms with no exception.
battikh Skype was never really blocked in UAE, it's just their website that is blocked (and still is). You needed a proxy just to buy credit. As long as you had credit in your account and that you have the app installed, it works just fine.

Aly Thats fantastic :D But personnally I dont think Fast Lebanon page have to take credit as they claim they "did it" this was going to happen sooner or later, imewe was deployed in december and the thing holding it was political debates, in addition groups like Flip the switch and Ontornet did more than Fast Lebanon did.
kdawg4-956 Personally I'm disappointed, the maximum speed for dsl is only 8 Mbps while 3G which isn't supposed to be as good as dsl has a maximum speed of 21 Mbps!
Khaled Completely useless if quota is less than 10GB in my opinion. It's like buying a fast car, but no proper road/track to use it.
Leonedes I read somewhere on the Fast Lebanon Page that the quota will be multiplied by 8 aswell , but I REALLLYYYYYY doubt that !
Fernand X4 or X8 still, i hope there will be free night traffic on all DSLAMs. Yeah, dream on Fernand :/
