the maximum upload I've seen in lebanon is 1mb .. i don't think the differnece of 512/1mb matters anymore

I'm subscribed to terranet's 8 Mbps plan and I receive 2 Mbps upload. All ISP's in Lebanon follow the same rule; the upload speed is 25% of the download speed.

ADSL isn't capable of more than 1Mbps upstream, unless you enable annex M on ADSL2+ which moves the numeber to 3Mbps but i dunno if it is supported.

but in general the max upload speed is 1Mbps in Lebanon, which is really shameful.


I think you're right. My upload speed fluctuates between 1 and 2 Mbps. I took a speed test last week and the upload speed was 1.67Mbps, I retook the test  right now and here are the results: http://www.speedtest.net/my-result/4256614004


I contacted terranet a couple of months ago regarding this issue and they offered sending a technician over to check the wiring. I declined because I was busy at the time, do you think I should give them a call or is it just a waste of time?

@TPR0 i am afraid that broadcom chipset might be defected, the upload is wayy too lower than it should be the BCM6338 have this issue where for no reason the upstream will get damaged and you get terrible upload performance, this is how my 2640u went to the garbage, it might be something else but looking at the stats the 6338 problem has got you, ogero will not give you more than 1mpbs with this upload figure Try another router, cause i might be wrong

No, they still did not activate the service, their side. Tried it 2 weeks ago in ksa, great SNR margin, 21768 kbit download, 716 kbit upload ;)

Guess I have to wait another month to prove it to ogero.

lol man, what does ogero have to do with you having 300k "ATTAINABLE" upstream rate when it should be at 1.1Mbps, and 716kbit/s you got in ksa proves that its faulty, when your download rate is 4M and above the upload should be maxed out since it uses lower frequency channels its not logical to get 21Mbps download attainable rate while failing to max out the upload at 1M , whatever...

Is that April's fool troll, nice .

Else, you can't reach theoretical speeds on adsl2+, can you?

Borrowed a tg585 v7, didn't even connect, stuck on gmt.994 initialization.

716kbit/s is close to 1mbit/s no?, plus this is not the attainable upload rate, i just used speedtest.net if i remember correctly, sorry.

Correct me if i'm wrong, if i am, correct the wikipedia: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/G.992.5, e.g:  ADSL2+:     Provider:Amis     D:20000     U:768, yes thats real life speeds, so 716 is epic.
Local Upload up to 1 Mbit/s and download speed up to 24 Mbit/s, "up to" is worrying me

Extra: "Saudi Arabia
STC offers ADSL2+ service at maximum of 20 Mbit/s downstream data rate. The service is called Xband Jood and as of 2013 costs SAR 249 per month (approx USD $66/month ). The maximum attainable data rate however depends on the location and is usually less than stated maximum of 20 Mbit/s at most locations." - Wikipedia.


Thanks for the suggestion though.

Re: Feedback for Ogero

you are not getting the point, all i said was that the attainable rate on the screenshot should be higher thats all, u are free to believe or not. and yes you can sync at 1Mbps/s upload easily even on Gdmt.. if you read on in that wiki article you would see something like:
24M down 1Mbit/s up        annexA   in germany,usa,belgium etc...
24M down 3Mbit/s up        annexM  //

the real life example you provided is from croatia, it's just that they don't want to max your upload,no 716 on adsl isn't epic.
and btw the thomson stuck on initializing is either the April's fool joke, or someone configured it to not sync on ADSL2+, from your replies you clearly showed that you have no idea what are you talking about.. i was giving a suggestion for you to get the 2M from ogero
good luck anyways.

"Even former Telecommunications Minister Nicolas Sehnaoui (pictured above) estimates it would take only a year to organise fibre to the Home to every Lebanese citizen. If they could just connect up the IMEWE."

What are we waiting for?

This is a joke.
Some regions still have got no phone boxes.
They just put the responsibility of stopping something on each other.

Re: Feedback for Ogero

fiber to home will not happen in lebanon.. it is impossible and even if it did happen in couple decades from now it will be only in beirut or major cities. you need to have a solid across the country fiber backbone, before you start thing about making a ftth project lol

like you said, many areas still have no dsl, they should start improving the dsl network cause that's the closest we will ever be in having a good internet.

Re: Feedback for Ogero

Didn't they ocne say that at least the centrals were connected to fiber? I don't think we need fiber to home to exceed the current speeds, I think if at least the main connection points have fiber, and we still have coppers to home, we could have 10 mbps without too much hassle. I don't think all of europe and the US is made out of fiber, and yet you don't find anyone with a 1 mbps connection there anymore...

Then again I am not an expert.

Re: Feedback for Ogero

I was reading about that, high speeds like that are possible if you are 100 meters from the central, but if we want to get down to earth, 10 mbps can be feasible. And if centrals are connected by fibers, I don't see why it cannot be unlimited.

But some repeaters can achieve full speed.

Re: Feedback for Ogero

Actually most Europe and USA is still running on copper to the end user fiber to home is only available in major cities.  you don't need to be 100 meters from the central to get VDSL speeds, all they have to do is install remote DSLAMS in each region using the existing fiber backbone that connects the centrals, even if they don't upgrade to VDSL remote DSLAMS will guarantee up to 24Mbit/s a good percentage of people. that's how in Europe and US most people can have more than 20Mbit/s.

Re: Feedback for Ogero

For people who submitted a request to be upgraded from 1 mbps to 2 mbps in ogero, how long did the process take? I've been waiting for one week now and I am getting a bit impatient, I should have had that speed a year ago already...

Re: Feedback for Ogero

Does anyone know if there are any papers, etc.. needed to upgrade from 2M40G to 2M unlimited, or can it be simply done via phone call?
Also supposing I ask for the upgrade right now, would it be upgraded on the 1st of may or june? I guess this is directed to people who already tried upgrading..

Re: Feedback for Ogero

Guys, lately my internet is acting crazy.
Sometimes WiFi stops working on every device connected, no internet access, although my pc what is connected to the router via lan is connected to internet.
And now, i cant even play BF4.
Its saying " You were disconnected from EA Online. Please check your internet connection or try again later. (1) "
Also, currently we do not have our phone line, the employee said that they are having malfunctions, but i dont know, it was just a counter employee.

Anyone having similar issues ?
