I am passing summer in the mountain , I dunno if adsl is droping in achrafieh but last month I had to restart my modem 3 times and got no internet for an hour twice
I am nearly convinced cyberia sales doesnt want to say 6mb will not work with our lines before the 1st august so we dont switch to ogero or other isp before another month.
Damn when you know they have 100mbs in Europe we still dont have 6mb lines in the capital
I think the issue is that there probably isn't enough bandwidth going into Lebanon to give many people speeds above 2Mbit. A large portion of Lebanon's capacity probably already goes to large corporations and universities.
All the previous ministers of comms should have think long term and invest more in central capacities instead of buying their 3rd villa and 5th Mercedes
Just called the sales and he said (ma mishe 7ala)
he told me to stay on 2M and they will inform me when my line can handle more (yeah sure)
As usual (like back on unlimited at night plans begun) only 5% of the users will have better plans, did you ask for 4mbs?

no , should I ?
I asked for 4 MB and till now I didn't receive any confirmation from them, just called the sales guy and he told me to renew my account as 2 MB now and I will know if my line can handle 4 MB during August.
Called them and with no surprises it cant handle 6mbs, I then asked about 4mbs and I will have to wait another month!
I will take 2mbs 50gb as I wont download that much in august,its half the price of unlimited

Take the 2m 40gb , if you need more you can buy them for less than the price of the plan , this plan is a scam , do the math
I posted the below in the IDM thread but since Cyberia and IDM are owned by the same company i will re-post it here:
I got this reply from IDM about upgrading my plan from 4 to 8:
Kindly be informed that your account will remain 4M 50 until we get the confirmation from the Ministry to proceed with the upgrade to 8M-100.
Yours Truly,
However, I was checking my modem stats and I got this
------ DSL Information --------
DSL Driver Version: A2pD035m.d24c
DSL VPI/VCI: 8/35
DSL Status: Up
DSL Mode: ADSL_2plus
DSL UpStream Rate: 894Kbps
DSL DownStream Rate: 8798Kbps
Down Up
DSL Noise Margin: 27.5 21.9
DSL Attenuation: 13.0 8.7
DSL Transmit Power: 19.1 12.1

My account at idm still shows 4mbps and my download speed is still at 490 KB/s (same what i was getting before). So yeah, no speed upgrade this month or the beginning of next month until they get the ok from the ministry.
If your line is already 4mbs then you are already a golden lucky guy to get 6 or 8
Dear Client, your change plan request for xxxxxx was successfully processed. Your plan will be DSL 4M-25G ($24.99 + VAT) as of 1 Aug 2014. That's the sms I received now from Cyberia.
Damn I wonder if its safe to buy a 2mb right now and get this sms a couple of minutes later :/
6 days later
I have a problem with torrents for years using Cyberia Adsl, when I download a torrent file I can't use anything else, nor browsing nor phone apps! I tried different torrent clients but all are doing the same, its weird as with my office's Hdsl from Idm I can download a file without affecting the rest. Any way to fix it? Is it a problem with Cyberia adsl or something else?
Most probably a problem with QOS in your router settings or you are setting a high upload rate. BTW I had Cyberia before and the torrents were working fine, I can browse and download at the same time.

Never had that issue... What plan do you have?
2mbs, same problem on the old thomson speedtouch and the actual tplink and on 2 different PCs, I already tried decreasing upload bandwidth to 5k in Tixati torrent client but no difference, should I decrease the download bandwidth too?
Used to have that problem vegetaleb but it was resolved after i upgraded to 50GB. The problem only existed on torrents that connected me to lots of peers try not so popular torrents.
so everyone gave up waiting for the speed upgrade??
GreenM wroteso everyone gave up waiting for the speed upgrade??
It was a lotery, they chose 10% of applicants randomly
