DSL All the way.

Wireless Internet is a major fail in Pakistan. But it also depends on the area you will be using the internet in...

to avoid issues , choose an ISP with better tech support , WC and Wateen are known to have way too much better support than other ISP like PTCL and 3rd part brands

I have used Wateen (WiMAX + Cable) & WC cable and of both Wateen has been way better in terms of speed and CS. Now I have ordered 2MB PTCL so lets see how it goes

I recommend Wi-Tribe after having used Wateen, WC and PTCL. When I say Wi-Tribe I'm taking all in consideration: Price, Aftersales Service, Quality

Thanks a lot for your valuable comments and feedback, It seems that there are so many choices out there.
PTCL Evo seems ok, also there are so many mobile operators are giving this mobile broadband connection on USB HSPDA modem, so I will go for it. Anybody tried them ?

Thanks
