So its like this there are 3 major Internet Service Providers: Bezeqint, 012, Netvision I happen to have worked with all the providers from when they have started selling ADSL in israel. Each one has its plusses and minuses although i will tell you what i did I started out with netvision where i got a decent price but stuck with really bad bad quality that websites took forever to load and i had response times of over 250ms where a normal site on an american server should take 160-190ms when i tried to disconnect with them it took forever because i had to run after them all the time and even when i finally disconnected they still charged me which eventually i needed to dispute the charges and it was a huge balagan. then i had bezeqint which when i started a business i actually recommended bezeqint untill all the problems started! when they had merged with a few smaller companies they added on a huge ammount of users causing the shared lines to crash and they had huge latency to servers outside of israel and after 6 months of working with their technicians the answer i got from an executive is that they are not fixing the problem since they never commited to great quality bandwidth to outside israel but only in israel!. then we switched and now use 012 where they have fiber optic wires outside of israel, they use less hops meaning lower latency and good quality web surfing including youtube and streaming video. If you want to get even better service you can contact Italkmore4less and get from them a business quality line with static IP for a private user price although u need an american CC or any CC that can be billed in $$$ if you would like any other info you can contact me at yuda@a1answer.com |
