Re: Fast Connection In Lebanon!!

well guys i have great news for you
Today I Had a meeting with fiberlink networks they were proposing to install in my office an 8 m up down connection. On Monday i'll get my quotation... Halla2 how much i guess in thousands dollars and i'm sure the administration won't give me this budget. What the HEll we're kinda improving in here.
If a 64 down dedicated and 64 over 2 up at 500 $ imagine the price of 8 mb connection

Re: Fast Connection In Lebanon!!

Has anyone tried the 512k wireless broadband plan from any of the ISPs?

I noticed that cyberia and tdm have a requirement for eligibility. You need to have 3 other people in your building with broadband before you're eligible.

However, terranet didnt mention anything about that in their EULA.

How efficient is the 512k connection? Does the speed vary? Anyone know wether its a 802.11x standard that they are operating on?

If you've used this service I'd really like to hear from you. Thanks.

Re: Fast Connection In Lebanon!!

I have a friend (DxDevil) who's using IDM's broadband plan, and I think the download speed is ~approx 15KB/s. you can PM him for more info, anyways i'll tell him to check out this topic.

btw, welcome to the forums recon1025, glad to have you here :)
