Pakistan Telecommunications Company Limited (PTCL) has once again added another feather to its cap. The country’s largest Information Communications Technology (ICT) services provider, has introduced 4Mbps as a minimum benchmark for broadband speeds nationwide.

Launched on Pakistan Day, in reaffirming its commitment to Pakistan, the company has taken the initiative to connect the country to the world at such high speeds, thus setting a benchmark equal to some of the advanced economies in the world and surely the highest benchmark in the South Asian region.

Walid Irshaid, President & CEO of PTCL, said, “PTCL is passionately pursuing its vision to bring broadband access to everyone, regardless of income levels and geographic terrain. Over the last few years, the expansion of PTCL broadband footprint and upgrade of existing infrastructure have all come together to change the very dynamics of information and communications technology services in Pakistan. This new initiative is a step further in ensuring that country progresses at faster speed and creates opportunities for the citizens of Pakistan to make economic gains using ICT services. And this is just the beginning of our high speed broadband initiative; there will be more to come in the future.”

PTCL being the leader in the broadband services, connects customers in more than 2,000 cities and towns across Pakistan. The company’s vast infrastructure serves as the back-bone of Pakistan’s growing telecom needs and the company continues to focus its investments in that direction to maintain the leadership in the industry. Ever since PTCL commenced broadband services in Pakistan, it has fueled a broadband revolution in the country, empowering people to come on the information communication highway and enabling every citizen and business to reach out to the world.

Lun internet of Pakistan. Wateen? Tried it shitty. Qubee? Tried it shitty? Witribe? Tried it shitty. Worldcall? Tried it shitty. EVO dingo dongo same shit.

PTCL is somewhat decent and half the places cant suppord anything over 1mb because of shitty wires.
 
Even 1MB net doesn't work at all.... :)

Convert your line to Fiber optics for peace of mind
 
And I'm getting < 2Mbps for upto 8GB only!! Man! That sucks to hell and high heaven!! :pissed: And India is supposed to be an IT superpower?? :woot: Jeeez!
 
It's a good move. Is it a private company, or is it owned by the govt? Would this mean that other ISPs will also have to offer the same speed to qualify as broadband? The govt of India should stop ISPs from calling their services as "broadband" unless they consistently offer 4 mpbs or even 8mbps. I have only seen Indian ISPs offering 256 kbps "broadband".:hitwall:

In the US, Comcast doesn't call anything below 16 mbps as broadband.

Allowed only is 8 GB download. After that it nose dives to 256Kbps!!!!! WTF? :undecided:

But yes, if I want unlimited download at that speed then I gotta pay Rs 1800 pm for the service! And it's government owned BSNL! They boast of fibre optic cables etc etc but the end result is what was there in baba adam ka zamana!! Jeeez!
