Hey guys,
I've been having intermittent connection in all devices while browsing at home from Cyberia and after trying everything including changing filters, connecting my laptop by wire to the modem.... etc. and with the abscence of any help from Cyberia's support people who, after I emailed them link test results and ping tests, actually suggested that i format my laptop for viruses....

Anyway we, at home, figured it was a DNS problem (given also that torrents which don't need DNS still work even when I can't browse). By trial and error, I got hold of a cyberia DNS server that works, because the modem was set to automically acquire the DNS from the ISP. (When I asked Cyberia, about IPs of other similar servers, they insisted that the DNS I have is not one of their servers, even though a quick googling of the IP shows that it is owned by Cyberia, anyyywayyy...) (the DNS that were not working are 195.112.195.136,195.112.195.34, 195.112.195.35, working DNS was 195.112.197.180)

However, the strange thing is that when I put the secondary DNS to be one of Google's DNS servers (8.8.8.8, 8.8.4.4), a connectivity test on the modem shows no connectivity to that server.

Any Cyberia users here, have had the same problem with DNS? Any suggestions to solve this problem (I've tried many other public DNS servers to no avail, and I'm hesitant to try just any server, for security purposes)?

your stats are all good I don't know what can be the problem , Although I can tell you one thing , Cyberia's support are useless , like any other isp support
Adsl 2mb is f**ed up, even direct link downloads are slow and before 11pm.
I downliaded the new Viperx rom for my htc M8 meaning 1.5gb, it took 4 hours to download while it used to be 2 hours. Download speed was very unstable fluctuating between 70 and 150kb/s using DAP.
Adsl in Achrafieh is a catastrophy these last weeks
9 days later
is there any way to track cyberia ADSL application online ?
Who got a positive answer for 4mb/s plan?
vegetaleb wroteWho got a positive answer for 4mb/s plan?
I got one and started getting 4mb/s since first of August
They called me a 10 days ago to say that they don't know yet and they will call back by the end of this month,though she asked me which download pack I want, it would be crazy to not have at least 4mb/s in Sassine area

same here, but i called idm to ask about my 4mb she asked me to call back at the end of the month
Just received an sms that starting 1st september my line will be 4mbs 50gb :)

lucky you i hope i receive the same sms from idm soon!
I heard rumors that Ogero is starting to implement fiber optic cables in Beirut so we could have up to 100mb/s in 6 to 8 months!
Tried the 4mb/s today...WoW!
Download speed reached 440k/s with torrents :)

Which CO?
anyone noticed 30 ms increase in ping ?
After 11pm download speed is ridiculously 20 to 30kb/s in direct link downloads (didn't try with accelerator) torrents speed are half the max speed meaning 220k/s instead of 440k/s.
I wonder if its because of local bandwidth due to free download after 11pm or lebanese isp make things slower because its free quotas!!
