Pakistan’s Mobilink Infinity WiMAX Launches!

Mobilink Infinity Logo

Great news, i just received the above scanned picture of a customer letter from one of Mobilink Infinity’s Sales Executive today!

Mobilink Infinity Customer Letter!

I am glad to tell you guys that Mobilink Infinity is in the race now, although Mobilink Infinity is a new comer in the WiMAX environment – Rumor has it that Mobilink Infinity’s WiMAX service already got 3,000 consumers in just 3 days!

Hard to believe, but since knowing many people were waiting for Mobilink Infinity’s arrival in the WiMAX industry it is quite surely a possibility.

I am posting another Scanned Picture below that i got from Mobilink’s Sales Executive along with the above  posted – This one shows Mobilink Infinity Tariff Packages PLUS Bonus Special Offers!

Mobilink Infinity Tariff Plans - Bonus Packages

I have also confirmed that Mobilink and LinkDotNet are not the same but different.

Mobilink Infinity’s back-end will be used by Alcatel Lucent and CPE’s will be provided by Zyxel.

Mobilink is offering 30 days 100% Refund.
Mobilink is also offering Dynamic IP address’s and not offering static IP address’s right now.

Well i just hope they really are offering “Real IP addresses” to each user unlike Wateen WiMAX who is assigning each user with Local IP address that is of No use and simply a RIP-OFF! [update] Seems like they changed and so Wateen is also providing dynamic ip addresses to its users now.

So far i am very happy with their Customer Service and as always Mobilink has given Customer Service a top priority – If you compare Wateen’s CSR with Mobilink’s CSR you will see alot of difference. Wateen’s CSR dont even know what they’re talking about! and just wants to get rid of the customer!

Mobilink’s Customer service is what we can call Quality Customer Service.

I haven’t decided to make a switch to Mobilink Infinity yet as i am also waiting for LinkDotNet. I will decide which to choose after that Mobilink Infinity or LinkDotNet! – Wateen is not even on my list! i will never-ever consider choosing Wateen or Warid for anything! – I hope 😀

So far, as of yet i have not heard much bad stories of people signing up for Mobilink Infinity and having problems but who-ever joined from Wateen to Mobilink has only said one thing – “Mobilink Infinity WiMAX is better than Wateen WiMAX“.

Mobilink Infinity hasn’t launched completely yet either yet – so people outside of Karachi will have to wait till Mobilink Infinity is there – Currently Mobilink Infinity is only providing its services in Karachi City.

People who have switched from Wateen to Mobilink please do share your experience with us!

    Mobilink Infinity services will soon be available in Lahore,
    Currently Mobilink wants to write a succes story in Karachi first.
    Although the setup is ready, Lahore and Islamabad will be the next to be launched.
    Soon it would be available.

    Der all,

    I had a connection of wimax and the system was installed on 15 september 2008 at 5 PM. On the same day the system gone out of order in the night . the help line was contacted they said an emergency upgradation is in process and by 3:00 or 4:00 AM on 16th september you will get the service. I went to my office on 16th September after office hrs i loged on the system on the same day at 3:00 PM worked a little and gone for a little nap. In the evening at about 6:00PM i tried to contact it but it fails and till today. I tried to contact the help Line but fails in three days, Most of the time it was busy if it isnt then the phone was not been picked up. Very poor help line i have never seen in life. I tired to contact the person who has taken the order The guy is nice and he tried to help me but the suport people did called me but no solutions. Still waiting for their rep to come and give life to their dead equipment. I have no connection to their office except the sales guy and the help line. I am unable to connect the help line since last three days. I humbly request the concers If you dont have the capacity why are you playing with people Isnt enought things are in pakistan to torcher the innocent public. You have become one more.

    Hi,

    @Ghayoor:
    WoW that is really terrible, are you in karachi?

    I’ve heard many positive comments about Mobilink Infinity from my friends, have you tried visiting there Franchise to resolve your problems?

    Do tell us the outcome of your problem.

  7. Usama says

    I dont know, they havent configured it properly, some programs don’t work properly like the online gaming client called Garena, I’m having issues running it properly, otherwise the bandwidth and download/upload speed is awesome, also you can’t host games online even if you do portforwarding, if someone can contact me to resolve this issue….

  8. Zubair says

    Woa!

    @Usama: Glad to hear your expereince with Mobilink Infinitys service, I’m not sure why you aren’t able to host your own servers because it should be possible it is with Wateen Telecom, are you sure you are doing the port forwarding correctly – i haven’t done this myself (because i think its waste of time and effort, especially if you are thinking running a counter strike server) – but some friends of mine of were able to accomplish this using Wateen.

    Gareena should be working fine too, maybe its because Port Forwarding not done right?

  9. Usama says

    @Zubair, turns out theres something wrong with the CPE firmware, even if you turn the hardware firewall off and set port forwarding rules, it still keeps on blocking inboud packets, as a last resort I just put the local IP assigned by the router’s DHCP in the DMZ, and now Im able to host all sorts of servers on it, hope it helps others

  11. Zubair says

    @Usama: Glad its working for you now and thanks for the heads up – some one with the same problem might find it useful here.

    @Papu: You should probably look for a mobilink franchise nearby and ask them – heres a phone number which was on the Mobilink Letter i received : 111-300-369

  12. Enlanger says

    Their packages are not attractive at all,capped connection is of no use seriously.In which world are they living?They are no better than Wateen. BOTH suck in package deparment

  13. Danishgi says

    Hey everybody. Hope you guys are enjoying Infinity.
    If anyone from your circle needs connection just let them kow my Gsm # 0300-8256273.

  14. Azar Bahi says

    Dear Danish-GI.

    Is mobilink infinity capped or is mobilink infinity unlimited package, I want to switch from Wateen to Infinity. But i need un-capped package or atleast something around 20 GB bandwidth.

    Thanks!

  15. 3xO says

    yar infinity ka koe cs server hai kyaaa .?????????

    1. Zubair says

      @3xO:
      I’m sorry i can’t find any Infinity servers

      Try out the pakistani counter strike servers by Clicking Here, New servers added.

  16. 1443 says

    Huh, You people think that mobilink will provide u true broadband…. Remmember they also have fixed quota on every package.. Why people hate wateen, coz it has traffic limit on each package and mobilink is also offering packages with traffic limit…… :(. Wat u will do. 15 GB isn’t enough…………….

    My usage of PTCL dsl per month is more than 20 GB…

  17. don says

    yar infiniti ki koi games or songs download karne ki website hn

  18. Solid___Snake says

    how can i fix my garena….it lags with mobilink infinity
    plz help me out i bought wimax for garena gaming only

  19. Djay says

    Hey people!
    I live in lahore.. Its been more than 8 months of infinity launched in karachi? Has it any programe cuming to lahore any s0oner or i buy wateen CPE?

    1. Zubair says

      @Djay:

      Thats really odd, i thought mobilink would have already started their services in lahore by now…

      Is there any mobilink franchise / office nearby ? did you try asking them?

      If you can’t wait any more – you can join wateen but thats upto you really. Wateen has improved alot since the old days but it still needs work.

      If you’re looking for good online gaming you should stay away from WiMAX services either mobilink nor wateen will satisfy these needs.

  20. KAMRAN says

    HI………
    I have learnt from a source that mobilink is providing a wireless internet through a device Wimax.I have purchased and i m using it but it is not good for the home users because terms and conditions only helpfull for the corporate costumers its very expencive for the students and i sugest you all not to take any risk for yourself and yours family……

  21. Riztek says

    i have just taken this connection of mobilink infinity at home, and it is not even 60% of performance that wateen provide, wateen is definitly faster and have decent uploading speed too, whereas mobilink infinity uploading is hell slow even worse than dial up.. (2.4kb/sec).. if u do video chat, u will be badly disappointed by this so called broadband connection.

    the downloading speed of mobilink infinity is ok but still not as fast as wateen. i use wateen at office, and mistakenly taken mobilink infinity at home….

    1. Zubair says

      Hey Riztek,

      so sorry to hear about your experience man, really.

      yeah, i’ve mostly only heard good comments about mobilink’s services.

      Have you tried going for a refund, than maybe you could switch to wateen then? or some other services which you prefer.

  22. 3xO! says

    Yar plz add some local cs server for infinty users……….!!plz………

    1. Zubair says

      @3xO!:
      sorry mate, i haven’t found any for them yet, but i’ll post them if i ever do..

  23. 3xO says

    yar zubair …tumhe pata hai port forwading kaise karte hain? port forward se mai online cs server bana sakta hun ………………..Plz replay fast

    1. Zubair says

      @Nauman Khan:
      Thanks for sharing with us your experience – but one thing you gotta note is that just because you are not having any problems with Mobilink Infinity doesn’t mean nobody is – i believe it varies from City to City people in different cities and sometimes even in different Towns get different experience.

      But the same can be applied to those are having troubles, because just because you are having trouble with a certain ISP doesn’t necessarily mean that everyone is 🙂

      Thanks for posting your experience, i am noticing that many ISP’s in Pakistan notably in Karachi are improving their services (but, maybe thats just me?).

      Cheers 🙂

  26. NAUMANKHAN says

    THANKS ZUBAIR BRO.
    I M VERY SAD ABTONE THING INFINTY DOES’nt HAVE ITS OWN PORTAL FOR GAMING , MOVIES etc

    1. Zubair says

      @Adnan:
      I am not sure what your router model is so i can’t precisely tell you how to do it.

      BUT, visit PortForward.com you have to find your router model there and it will show you step by step instructions on how you can setup port forwarding for your Mobilink Router.

    PLZ TELL ME……

  37. Syed Zeshan Ahmed says

    Don’t buy Mobilink Infinity…I bought the 2mb unlimited with wifi last week..through some sales person when i called their official no…got the device 1 day after and paid Rs 3900…they said it will activate in 6 hrs which was strange, bcoz previously i owned a witribe and wateen, and both got activated then and there.. I waited for 6 hrs, and after trying again and again, the login and password provided to me, it kept giving login errors…i tried calling at mobility and after many calls to the customer care some guy picked up and after giving my info i was told that my database doesn’t exists…i was shocked and horrified what had happened..

    The next day i called the sales person, she said to call the customer service again.. i tried and tried but no one picked up..she said she tried too and no one is picking up..i told her if my internet doesn’t get activated by tomorrow i will return the device and i want my money back … 3rd day it didn’t get activated , i tried logging in.. she told me to email to the customer care and they will call back, so i did and no one called..

    I decided the next day to return, i went to the Johar Mobilink Franchise, they said it wasn’t bought from here so it wont be returned here, i told them when u are selling something you come to us like angels and we come to u to return and get our money back which is our Right, you treat us like shit…i finally found a mobilink customer care in Gulshan near expo center..i returned the device and they gave me a receipt and said that they dont have any money right now and i can come in 3 days to collect… its been 7 days and i have tried again and again, but they keep telling me that my refund hasn’t arrived.

    I seriously don’t think they will return my money..i don’t know what to do. I never thought Mobilink, a company so big will do such a thing. Wateen and Wi-Tribes are way way way better..don’t waste ur time and ur money on infinity..thanks
    Syed Zeshan

    1. Zubair says

      @Syed Zeshan Ahmed,

      I am sorry to hear about your experience, though it really isn’t a great idea to buy these type of stuffs from Unknown Sales People.

      Although it is happening i strongly discourage people from doing this, not just for Mobilink but Wateen, PTCL or any other providers.

      Its much better to purchase your service from an Authentic Franchise rather than contacting an unknown sales-man. They only care until you pay them, once they have your money they are gone and of no further use. You can’t get a hold of them. If you have their cell-number they would ignore you if you start to annoy them too much.

      On the other hand franchises are better, you get the feeling of doing the right thing at the right place. You know if something goes wrong you can come back here and give them a piece of your mind.

      All in all, i am truly sorry about your experience and hope you can at-least manage to get your funds back.

      Good Luck!
