Cablenet is the only Cable TV and Cable Internet carrier in Cyprus. Currently the coverage is limited only to several urban areas. The difference between Cable Internet and ADSL is that unlike ADSL (I-choice, Primetel) that connect you to the internet via the telephone line that is already installed in your home, you connect to Cablenet with a separate coaxial cable that is installed to your home once you purchase the service. Therefore, connecting to the Internet through Cablenet is independent of your telephone carrier. Cablenet also offers an ADSL product which is available at more locations.

Back to normal for me too since yesterday! At last! Better late than never I guess.
I was kind of expecting such a freebie from Cablenet judging from the previous upgrade. They've tested our patience to the limit these past 3 months, at least something good is gonna come out of that. Of course, that remains to be seen in December.
As I have posted in the past, WHEN IT WORKS, IT IS THE BEST.
We all can only hope there won't be again any bad surprises in the future...

That should ring a bell.
You may think your speed is double but in fact nothing has changed.
So next time youre stuck with lower speeds don't wonder if it has gone down in half - it's your real speed
