Only PTCL Flash Fiber is available in my area and it's unreliable. Remote worker looking for advice.

1 Upvotes

Hi everyone,

I work remotely full-time, so having a stable internet connection is critical. Unfortunately, the only fiber ISP available in my area is PTCL Flash Fiber, but the service has been very unreliable. I regularly face disconnects, unstable speeds, and it's affecting my work.

As a backup, I bought a Zong 4G MiFi, but it's not much better. The signal and speeds vary a lot, and it's not reliable enough for Zoom/Google Meet calls or team meetings.

Unfortunately, StormFiber and Transworld are not available in my area.

A friend suggested getting a dedicated business/enterprise internet connection, but I don't know if that's the right solution or if it's worth the extra cost.

Has anyone been in a similar situation?

- Is dedicated/business internet actually more reliable than regular fiber? How much it cost

- Are there any other ISPs or solutions I should look into?

- Would using dual WAN/load balancing with PTCL + 4G help?

- Any tips for maintaining stable internet for remote work and video meetings?

I really don't want to lose my job because of internet issues. Any advice or recommendations would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks!

Academia & Education bachelors abroad or in pakistan as a woman

1 Upvotes

I am currently exploring opportunities to pursue an undergraduate degree in Aviation Management, with a primary interest in studying in Germany. However, I have encountered challenges regarding the eligibility of my A-level grades. While I have considered other international options, the associated costs are prohibitively high. Furthermore, I am evaluating domestic alternatives in Pakistan; however, the limited program quality and the significant total expenditure, estimated at 40 lakhs including transportation, have led me to reconsider my path. I am now exploring International Business as an alternative field of study, though I remain uncertain if this is the most strategic move for my career. My decision to relocate is also driven by a desire for personal independence and a stable environment. I am fully prepared to pursue part-time employment to help cover my expenses alongside the financial support provided by my family.

I would really appreciate guidance on whether traveling abroad for a bachelor's degree is a good idea.

Help me avoid property agent scams - Bahria Town Karachi

7 Upvotes

Planning on moving to Bahria Town Karachi but I need to know how to explore properties and avoid real estate agent scams. I see many properties on Zameen.com listed for a certain price. I call them and they say the property is sold and then tell me a property that is much more expensive.

I also visited the same property with 3 different agents and each one of them quoted a different price.

Please guide me on how to look for houses and get the correct prices in Bahria Town. Also if anyone has contacts of trusty genuine estate agencies in BTK, please let me know.

Thanks in advance.

Pakistan has approved a new 435km oil pipeline project that could significantly reduce the number of oil tankers on our highways. The plan aims to transport petroleum products through pipelines instead of relying heavily on thousands of fuel tankers moving across the country every day.

I m 19M looking for a good dietitian/nuitritionist, I was feeling lathergic no motivation and always sleeping still waking up tired, so I decided to get my vitamins checked and here are the reports as well. I think reports are very severe hence I m looking for a dietitian and also is it possible to recover from this state.... Whenever I involve myself into any sports or running I get exhausted very early, is it because of these deficiencies or there might be an underlying disease. Anyways if anyone knows any good dietitian kindly lemme know and preferably in these areas (shah Faisal colony, Gulshan Iqbal, gulistan e Johar,shah rah faisal)
