it's not a phone problem
they have a pool where a new subscription is put in 3g for the first day or two.
when alfa doesn't automatically recharge my internet and I have to recharge it manually, I am put in the 3g pool and when they recharge me automatically I go straight in the 4g pool.
They don't admit it but I've lived enough in this country and payed enough bills to notice it.

No i didn't buy it from Lebanon, but my phone is unlocked, i've tried an mtc sim card and got 4G in beirut. but here in my area alfa has 4G and Mtc no.

Thank you so much Ballad, then it's right that i should wait from 24 to 48 hours?

my area just got 4G+
speeds between 50 and 70mbps for both download and upload
Do you need phones that support 4G+ or support for 4G is enough?
I can't help but notice , why the dsl is so slow and the mobile internet (3g and 4g) is so fast?
AVOlio wroteDo you need phones that support 4G+ or support for 4G is enough?
4G+ is multiple 4G bands combined together... so if your phone supports multiple bands (used by alfa and touch) then you'll get 4G+ since they're using this technique

Achkout

dsl is slow because they don't want to upgrade the infrastructure...
because 4g bring way more money 10gb for 40$ <3


why do they need to upgrade dsl , when they can milk us for the rest of our life , simple logic

Apparently Touch has blocked VPN, i called and they transferred my case, i later got a call saying that VPN is not available for users, only corporate lines can get a vpn after approval of the ministry, anyone heard about this or a way to bypass it? VPN used to work before on mobile data so i'm not sure what happened now.

Hi,
What's the latency using 4G when playing games like Battlefield , CS:GO ? ( Assuming the nearest servers are in Germany ).
my best ping using a local cable service is 100ms the servers in Germany.
88-89 on 4g+ 69 on ogero , but with 4g+ no packet loss , with ogero there is

he new leaked plans (and yes these are only leaks, nothing official) are as follows:

Plan 1: 5 GB = $15/Month
Plan 2: 10 GB = $25/Month
Plan 3: 20 GB = $40/Month
Plan 4: 30 GB = $55/Month
Plan 5: 40 GB = $70/Month
Plan 6: 50 GB = $85/Month
Plan 7: 100 GB = $120/Month
How accurate are these leaks? We’ll have to wait and see to find out.
Are these plans logical? I really doubt.

they cant force those who are paying 9$ to spend 6 extra $ every month to get the service.

+prepaid cards for calls cost 10 and 15$!!!!

I believe the figures make sense but maybe just missing the cheapest option. There should be an option that costs around 9$ and that will provide maybe 1GB
