Dubai Forums Dubai Tech Discussions Dubai high tech talk

i wonder... why?
i cannot login to the online games i played for 7 months
and even my company's FTP.

i know it's the game server that has the problem, i'd call my friend from another country and he can go ingame normally.

Note: and i tried to connect to the Microsoft Internet Reversi and still cannot. what's happening to ETISALAT's services?

BTW: im going to call them now.

Internet traffic in the UAE is being affected after a submarine cable linking Mumbai and Penang was cut yesterday, taking out four of Etisalat's 19 links. E-Company marketing manager Farooq Hasan said broadband customers who use the net for gaming and peer-to-peer applications will be most affected. No indication was given as to when the problem would be rectified.


That's why you are experiencing difficulties with anything other then browsing.

Cheers,

yup that sucked!!!

...but everything's been working great for like more than a week now! I've been playing online games and downloading stuffs like crazy!!!

Today Etisalat, supposedly, will double your adsl speed for free and with no extra fees in your subscription rate! This is just totally awesome!!! I can't wait to go home and check it out!
