Any plan that has unlimited quota and capped speed also has higher latency. I am not sure why , but I have two relatives and a few friends who where subscribed to limited plans and had terrible pings . Only on subscribing to open speed plans fixed ping latencies for them. Now subscribing to open speed alone might help but mainly turning off interleaving ( "gaming mode" ) is what will give you the juicy ping , however , it all depends on how far you are from the central , which is out of your hand. I think only if you live alone then your ping will be decent.

Exactly, once your modem starts syncing internet from Ogero, give them a call and ask for Interleaving OFF (gaming mode/fast mode - or whatever they called it)
I was with IDM with high pings, but when I switched to Ogero with interleaving off, unbelievable results !

Did it affect your speed or not? I do not live far away from their office like 1.5km or something like that and i had Open speed from Cyberia used to get 10mbps. Do you think it will affect my speed since i am now subscribed to Ogero 2mbps unlimited plan? My friend who has the exact same plan from Ogero gets 90 ping ( I don't think he has interleaving off ) and i just got my router from Ogero, gonna leave it for a few days to see if there's any difference ( Made a speed test once i brought it ping was averaging 300 lol but i'll give it some time and call them tomorrow or something ).

TigerFox wroteAs @Abo7meed said , it shouldnt affect the speed.

By default , for everyone , interleaving is on. You can easily call and ask them to turn it off. But again , if your line is not stable , you'll face frequent disconnections and packet losses , but you can turn on interleaving again it is not a problem

nuclearcat wroteI will try to follow up your case at globalvision, just ask sales to forward your name to anthony and denys, i will continue from there.

Nemesis-301 wroteanybody know if the ISP switch is still happening? or we have to wait 2 months if we wanna switch?
I'm switching to global vision, and they are claiming they need a maximum of 10 days to give me my internet.
While when I called to cancel from wise they told ogero redisabled this from happening and it would take them 1.5 - 2 months for switching ISPs....
1 of them is lying or uninformed, I took the risk and asked wise to cancel it, since they could easily lie to discourage me from canceling..

I feel I should give an update on this. I received a phone call today from global vision, they are gonna install the new router tomorrow.
turns out all they needed was 3 days, and now we know who was lying/uninformed.
I will post gaming ping and speed results in comparison with that of wise tomorrow night on the "feedback for THGV" thread.

This is on an ogero 2mb 'unlimited' connection

Techlover wroteHello guys,

I am with ogero subscribed to the open speed 100 GB plan and getting speeds around 13mbps on adsl.

I saw packages of other ISPs . I liked Terranet and Mobi plans for example. I especially need the unlimited night traffic .
Which of the private ISPs would you recommend . Will i find an ISP as stable as ogero or at least close ? And which do you recommend . I previously heard IDM was the best but now their support is very bad .
