192.168.1.254

User/pass = user/user

Go to broadband connection on the left hand side

it should show the speed that your currently on with some other info.
RyanM wroteCan anyone confirm when Ogero will start using the new plans? im guessing right at the end of the month since then everyone will pay for this months usage and they can start the new plans on a blank slate but im just guessing. so if anyone can confirm that would be great!
I called Ogero, and the tech guy told me "starting" from sep 1... god knows what he means by that.

I didn't feel he gave me an answer, just a well educated guess, but regardless they are working at it as we speak.
kdawg4.956 wroteCan somebody please tell me why ogero doesn't have unlimited night traffic and double speed?! And higher prices?! PLEASE SOMEBODY TELL ME!!
Ogero are more interested in personal gain and quality of their connections. Give people their double speed and unlimited night and bye-bye QoS

if you only have in mind heavy browsing and downloading, then there is no reason not to take with an ISP that offers double speed / unlimited night .
what's gonna happened to stuff like WINS or Wise or Mobi ?
I believe Wise, Wigo & Mobi will all be phased out as part of the Telecom's push for 3G (while the rest of world upgrades to 4G/LTE).

And as The-MMMs put it:
[They are] more interested in personal gain
Guys, a quick reminder: this topic is reserved only for questions and answers. Other posts will be deleted to keep the information easily accessible.

Exactly, that's why I'm with Ogero now.


But with the new speeds, I'll switch to anyone with unlimited plans.
I hope Ogero never gives unlimited, I don't want my network to get congested by all the "I d0wnl0ads internets" users.
Anyone can confirm if the 2mb package will have unlimited download and double speed at night ? Private ISPs ofcorse.

I called terranet, even though i am not a terranet user, and they told me that they are going to keep them after the upgrade
Do we have any idea about the latency difference with the new routes/connections?

Will ogero still be the only ISP worth having if you want to game online?
There are rumors going around that Ogero users will see an improvement starting on the 1st (of September)--does anyone have any sources to link to?

There's only 1 major improvement considering Ogero service, is that the modem lock on the Internet before my PC starts up. I mean like no time, while before it will take a minimum of 15mins so I'm able to start browsing.

The guy in the support, told me that just when the new law is in the official gazette, it will take only 1 week so the new speeds are delivered.

That lock issue has been solved since 3 months ( at least in my case )


Now the question is... Are we gonna have our upgrade or are we gonna have reduced rate ?

Say if I have a 1mbps connection now and paying 115,000LL excluding VAT, will the new connection bandwith be automatically upgraded to 4mbps along with the quota or the price iwill automatically drop to 34,000LL ?

because in the 2nd case, I will have to get the last bill and take my dad to sign some papers at Ogero etc... and then wait for the other month to get the bandwidth upgrade...

If in your area the new speed is available ( which is 4Mbps in your case ), you'll be upgraded to it, if you can't get it, you'll get maximum speed available with more quota. They wont give you 1Mbps for less money, you'll pay the same for higher speed.

Kareem, you do not need your dad to go and upgrade it. You, as his son, can do it. I've done it many times. (besides, you can get a copy of the last bill from the central office)
1 MB Connection = 100 KB Download Speed ?
bluewolf wrote1 MB Connection = 100 KB Download Speed ?
1 mb/8 = 125kb download speed
1024 / 8 = 128 KBps :)
Just remember this is Up to 1Mbps, which just like now I'm getting 24KB/s max with 256Kbps, we'll get 100~110KB/s with 1Mbps

I wish this was the case but couple of times I went there and they said ( at Bir hassan ) " El ishtirak bi ism bayyak lezim yejeh "

For people asking about the 1mpbs , In my case I only get 908kbps and download rate is somewhere near 110KB/s best case.

@ 4mbps I think we only get 3.5Mbps-3.6Mbps if we are lucky and our line supports that speed.
