WiFi Router: Facility or Service?
Can you spot what is not right about this advertisement from PTCL?
PTCL is providing devices (router and usb) for WiFi access in the home but they make it sound as if it is a “service”. Check out the official statement below. My take is that they should just make the router+usb free (at least not charge Rs. 200 per month for an indefinite period) and stop calling it a “service”.
PTCL Broadband, now available with new value added WiFi Services
Pakistan Telecommunication Company Ltd (PTCL) has launched a WiFi facility with its fixed line broadband service that will give the PTCL Broadband customers the ability to use high speed and secure broadband services anywhere in the house.
This service will provide wire free connectivity to all WiFi enabled devices like desktops, laptops, PSP, cell phones etc with strong WiFi signals up to 54MBPS, with a secure password which enables protection to avoid any misuse.
PTCL is offering this customer friendly WiFi service at an additional charge of only Rs 200 per month. However, the service has no extra cost for the customers having Broadband with the smart TV service. The package also includes a WiFi USB to enable customer’s desktop pc to be used on the WiFi service.

Hi,
I personally agree that this service should be free at least for existing PTCL customers.
I used it yesterday and it worked fine with a distance of about 20 metres.
The PTCL wifi isn’t a good because it create problem so be aware!
Really its very funny and unbelievable to charge extra Rs 200 for Wi Fi router,why not it should be free for having already internet connection.
it must be free.because other companies like wateen are providing it free.so what’s important that people will buy it.

Trully speaking it make me laugh! I think ptcl think people are stupid? Why not they simply ask people to pay Rs 200 if they wanted a wireless router!
