Re: Any Broadband user in Pakistan!
The reason broadband is still expensive that no matter what government shouts about Internet facilities in PK, they just (around a month ago) updated their STM4 link to STM6 (going upto STM8 in coming times). Yes Pakistan is now connected to whole world with just STM6 (930 mbps) link via Dubai. The redundant link as far as I know is 256 mbps satellite link (they may have upgraded it). Pakistan lacks behind badly in asia, I haven't heard any other country having bandwidth under OC48 (2.5 gbps) but Pakistan in Asia. The cost of 256 kbps with 2GB cap is same as 8mbps unlimited in Europe.
Pakistani IT needs to develop & develop quickly.
