What is the difference between PTCL DSL and Flash Fiber?
PTCL DSL uses existing copper telephone lines and delivers speeds from 6 Mbps to 15 Mbps with data caps ranging from 150 GB to 275 GB. Flash Fiber uses fiber-optic cables directly to your home and delivers speeds from 20 Mbps to 250 Mbps with unlimited data. Flash Fiber provides more consistent speeds and lower latency compared to DSL. DSL is available in more areas while Flash Fiber requires fiber infrastructure in your neighborhood. Flash Fiber costs more but delivers significantly better performance.

PTCL Flash Fiber plans under 100 Mbps have a fair usage policy with a 2,000 GB monthly limit. Once this limit is reached, speeds may be reduced.
