yea old/plain telephone lines can support ADSL2+ ... but what i wanted say is that some lines which are pretty old are having noise(means damaged lines and stuff i guess?) so that makes good speeds impossible. im near my exchange(like i can walk to that thing within 20 minutes 
, but when i first took ADSL, my connection was so poor that i had to call the SLT people and complain them(and they diverted me to some other person and like that you know...) and finally when they arrived at my place they could not find any problem with the telephone line... but when they left the place they have spotted some broken(half broken...) wire and they fixed it. and then my ADSL was ok. most of the wiring around out was replaced but not ours for some resone, well thats what they told us, who knows
but if somebody start giving wireless there would be no such problems. but yeah then they will face different problems... and it seems that all the wireless ISP solutions that exists withing srilanka are pretty expensive. and that too bad...

hmmm thats bad i mean a monopoly is always bad isn't it? at least most of the time its bad... so all these sea-me... fiber optic cables that go through SL are administered by the SLT? oh then of course they have a monopoly... so yeah you are right then its hard to battle em... may be some other company can participate in some new sea-me... kind of line that goes near SL... so it would brake the monopoly... Satellite connectivity have more latency i guess so i don't think it can out perform the fiber lines... hmmm... isn't there any other way?

well im a SLT customer and i do enjoy there service but they can improve... anyways without them we would have no ADSL, that means no good connectivity for the average(?) user, so thanks for the service SLT 
charmer said:Dear SLT Customers,
Dont mind the line, just enjoy the service.
Those cables are not jsut administered by them. It's more that that. They OWN them!!!dineitdark said:
I don't think other companies can do that. Almost half of SLT is owned by the government. The government can't take chances by giving the control of such a cable to a private company.
No, there isn't any other way. It's either optical fibre or microwave. Microwave can't go more than 155Mbps. SMW-4 cable's bandwidth is 2.5Tbps (and SLT can use 10Gbps of bandwidth out of it)
well i guess there are about 3, 4 cables that goes through our country? so letting a another company help build a another one wont just do anything bad right? i mean the whole country is not depending on that company... i guess SLT kind of jointly own them with other companies in other countries near us? hmmm... know what SLT have most of there routes congested in the day time... i mean you can browse web and all that but.... the responsiveness of the n/w segments in SLT and all the backbone providers attached to them are very high... compared to other ISPs in other countries(developed of course...).. and the packet loss is about 30 -20 % which is kinda bad...
how costly are those microwave links? i mean if they are not that costly someone may be able to put up a dozen x 1000..etc of them and get connected to the rest of the world... i mean through the countries near us....

Yes, of course SLT only owns the part that comes up to Sri Lanka (it's just a branch from the main cable)dineitdark said:
There are only two cables used for Sri Lankan calls/data traffic.
Why the speeds are low, has nothing to do with the backbone network. There is more than enough bandwidth in the network.
Satellites are very expensive. Even SLT can afford to give few Mbps for 24/7 connectivity.
Ping is Good
Well there is a way to do it...
Find a option in your router called connection type(in usrobotics it's in the wan->atm1). set it to be as trigered by traffic or always connected. and one easy way to reconnect rather then restarting a router is to ping to a site. goto run type cmd and in the console type "ping www.google.com" this will force the router to reconnect.(set connection type to be as triggered by traffic).
