Wateen Hits with USB dongle

Fianally, Wateen has launched his USB device. Although there is nothing about it on official site. but It is in the market. Security deposit is still off and you can take wateen connection with USB dongle by just giving subscription charges (1500 for 256&512 and 1000 for 1 mb) and one month advance service charges which are already mentioned on their site. Downloading Caps are still active i think as last night i talked to their representative. Watever, USB dongle is quiet better than old big device which didnt allow you a lot of mobility. With USB you are totally mobile. Now just wait for others remarks about service quality which is superior than any other wimax provider, According to wateen. One more advantage is that you dont have to pay line rent for phone as it was on previous big motorolla devices offered by wateen. So here is the formula for first payment. 

Subcription charges + Ist month Charges + Rent of device (If you dont purchase it )

According to the representative, its inclusive of all taxes. Wish you Good luck

Bing : A new competitor for Google?

From many years we all are well aware of Google being one of the best and fast search engine. Ever person that is a user of internet is a user of google too. Every thing you want to search is helped by google. Even the term browsing is also referred as Googling now a days showing the infuence of google on internet industry. 

Recentaly, Microsoft launched a new search engine named Bing. With colorfull themes, this new search engine is fast loader even on slow connection. I havent compared its no of searches as compared to google but it loads quite quickly even with themes. Searching results are also fast. Click the link below to check the search engine and give comments. I desperately need them to check my opinion.

Opera 10


Being related to internet, we came in touch with many browsers. Microsoft IE is the most common. Then there are many others in the list like firefox, netscape etc. But have you ever tried Opera. In start it wasnt good or no body found it advantegeous but now my personal opinion for persons having slow connections like GPRS or EDGE, Opera is quite good. Its new version Opera 10 is very beautifull, swift with turbo speed booster which can make ur internet experience a joy. I would recomend you all if u have Pentium 3 or higher and have any slow connection like above mentioned or V ptcl, 128 kbs or dialup then you should try it. You will feel the difference as i did. 

If you want to test then here is the link : http://www.opera.com/browser/download

Internet/DSL/Wimax Provider in Pakistan


Today i want to list some of the companies providing internet services in pakistan via line and without line. 

If we talk about providers on Landline they following companies are operating in Pakistan.

PTCL

LinkDotNet

Cybernet

Micronet and Nayatell  (Rwp& ISB)

 

And there are also some companies giving wireless services. 

PTCl in the form of EVO and VPhone.

Wateen 

Witribe.


There are also cellular companies providing GPRS/EDGE services all over the paksitan. Although this services is the slowest one from the above mentioned but due to mobility and ease of access, it also has its worth. 


In my personal opinion In Rwp and isb ( as i am from here) Micronet is on TOP due to top quality services and fast customer care services. PTCL is a good service provider but its customer support lacks behind micronet. LinkDotNet, an orascom company, now basically a unit of mobilink, is also a good service provider but with a lot of billing problems. 

Int the category of wireless, EVO is going on the top due to 3.1 MB/s in just 1800 per month. but not every one is their customer so there are just some especial high internet users for them. Wi-tribe just started with mixed opinion, some people suggest that they have good services with good customer care but some also have opposite opinions. but i havent used it as i applied for it but its not available for my area. Wateen is also providing some good services but due to its line rent and hidden charges, they are loosing the market. Altough they just claimed to acheive the landmark of 10 million customers. I havent used but 3-4 of my friends are using wateeen and they passed these comments to me that when it works its the best and if it goes down then there is no body to save you. I write this article to give an overview of DSL providers in Islamabad and Rawalpindi. If some one has further Queries, then he can ask.
