We use Max.com with PTCL lines. PTCL is saying someone cut the wires and now to get them replaces we have been through all the channels with no luck. We are using worldcall wireless set which is a lil better than dial up at the moment which is a pathetic alternative. Anyone know of any good alternatives to use in SITE area? Any help will be greatly appreciated. Our office here in the SITE area near habib bank chowrangi has had no DSL for last 3 weeks now. We use Max.com with PTCL lines.

"The downloading speeds for broadband in Canada are also much slower than in the leading nations. The fastest download speed offered by the largest cable operator in Canada last year was 10 megabits per second. This compares with 30 mb/s in Japan, 26 in Norway and 25 in Sweden. The fastest download speed offered by a telecommunications company was 18 mb/s in Canada, compared to 100 mb/s in Japan and Korea."
