. Slow during day time. But overall, its the best in Sri Lanka.
if you only know the freedom high speed broadband provides everything you thought about is at your finger tips when you have good broadband, i believe anybody that has such low standards of Internet access should go into the government buildings and put a giant poster demanding Fiber Internet access, there are parts of Europe and Asia and most of the world with very sub standard connections i seriously would spend my entire billions if i was actually a billionaire on building a fiber cable that runs all over the planet , there should be a global Internet access law where nobody no country should be allowed to have these ridicules connections for sale. 
(Please do not call it low standards 
). As for my knowledge, almost all ISPs throttle heavy users to provide good speeds for their customers of high priorities.
i understand, what your saying, but if you do not bring strong arguments with the responsible people to improve the standards in the broadband market you and many other users will be still on the same ADSL 10 years down the line, while the rest of the world will be moving forward, don't take my words as offense I'm just giving you my opinionHerath wrote:This is 512kbps connection. And the speeds are mentioned in Mbps. It ain't that bad for me
And sometimes it is best to settle down with what you have on hand. There are people who do not have enough money even to buy food and cloths.
Having everything at my finger tips shouldn't mean pirating copyrighted material. I am trying to reduce my pirated material usage.
for me i like to improve broadband speeds on every part of the world, I personally believe Internet access is a human freedom and nobody should deprive you from accessing knowledge. just like wikipedia one for all and all for one 
But I do not know how practical that is. Also, I read that TRC is going to make a optical fiber link covering the country in future, where operators can buy bandwidth. But no mentioning on international bandwidth. May be their null hypothesis (That we are a kind of dumb people) must have been accepted with strong evidences . . They should really increase it. May be they are having concern only on download speed which every one is so obsessed about.
Hey Friend Is there any Higher Place that We can Inform about? You said TRC isn't doing very well with those Matters, I am Thinking of another Higher Place.Saman wrote:Mysoogal, you are correct.. Sri Lanka is far too behind the technology standards. The reason is, the country was hit by brutal terrorism for past 30 years until May, 2009. All types of developments had been slowed down including infrastructure. Now only the country is starting up things.
At the moment the situation is not so good. A few companies dominates the internet and there is nobody whom I can recommend just like Virgin, Orange, 3, etc... All are eating customers money and the biggest eater is SLT which is a government organisations who charge more than a 10 Mbps line in UK for a 2 Mbps link.
We only can wait.... I'm sure the government will do something for this soon.
