I get around 220mbps using Alfa's 4G, $200 for 200GB though. I mainly use their unlimited 2 hours quota (50GB FUP).

Impressive, usage has to be extremely conservative, average usage with 2 users here (no big downloads) is 8gb/day on 9mbit connection measured few months ago.
As for WDSL, bear in mind that there is no bufferbloat, e.g segmented downloads won't affect conference or web browsing speed, 12mbit WDSL =\= 12mbit ADSL. My test with Alfa was similar at 20ms+. For testing purposes I'm about to reach 2tb, hoping some FUP kicks in, will post vnstat graph here.
It would be interesting to hear some feedback regarding LTE-A from Ogero, my area isn't covered.

Re: Terra Net - WDSL

I need to be connected using LTE+, sometimes I restart the phone because it gets stuck on LTE, I'm also using a data sim card.

I'm located in Beirut, near Sodeco Square, maybe the network here can handle more load and isn't congested?

I have to restart phone as well, not with Touch though. 40mbit as well. Touch is half that, but twice the upload.

No it doesn't. WDSL stands for Wireless DSL.
It was specifically launched by Terranet for people who don't or can't have a landline.
They will perform a feasibility test/study and let you know if it works for you (where you live).

great thank you.

but 12mbps for 300k LBP isn't a good option
I use a 4G connection from alfa, it's 25mbps+ for 360k but yes limited to 300GB monthly

AlfaNet is no longer open for new users (max 200GB for now), 300GB is very low for 25mbps, I would recommend Touch FDD (full duplex) at this point as Alfa is TDD (half duplex). From my tests, LTE tends to have a huge 10ms jitter.


both touch and alfa has the same quota/price

Their plans are almost double the cost, charging at 8500+ LBP as well, plus it's subject to FUP per day.
Edit: to elaborate double for the lower plans.

Re: Terra Net - WDSL

if you have the money and wanna go crazy, get alfa and write a script to auto recharge the unlimited 2 hours 5$ plan. At today's rate it would cost 200$ in USD to get 24/7 unlimited.

the disconnection every 2 hours would suck, everytime I subscribe to it I have to restart by phone for it to work at the start and at the end

You are right, I didn't see the new prices for touch. So it seems touch is the cheapest for now.

Re: Terra Net - WDSL

@RandomMemory
I am planing to get the 6M WDSL plan with Terranet, can you share your experience with them? they have such bad reviews on Google but honestly what matters to me is connection stability and speed!
Is the ping good for gaming? will i actually be getting 0.750KB/s all the time in both uploads and downloads? is it really UNLIMITED? is it reliable (whats the uptime like)?
Sorry for asking too many questions

Re: Terra Net - WDSL

@nosense is the speedtest result reflection on actual download speed? as in,are you getting around 1.4 mb/s when downloading? and does it remain the same after heavy usage?
