PTA conducts QoS broadband surveys for Q3 2026
ISLAMABAD, Nov 11 (APP):The Pakistan Telecommunication Authority (PTA) has conducted Quality of Service (QoS) surveys for fixed-line broadband services during the third quarter of 2026, covering network-end and user-end performance across major cities in Pakistan, including Gilgit-Baltistan (GB).
The surveys aimed to assess the performance of Broadband Service Providers (BSPs) against the prescribed QoS benchmarks and evaluate the quality of internet services being provided to consumers.
The network-end surveys assessed key performance indicators, including network availability, jitter, network latency, bandwidth utilization, and data throughput. The user-end surveys assessed broadband performance experienced by consumers, providing an additional view of service quality at the subscriber end.
The survey findings provide an assessment of BSPs’ compliance with the prescribed QoS benchmarks and help identify areas requiring improvement. Where performance deficiencies were identified, the concerned operators are being directed to take appropriate corrective measures to address the issues and improve service quality.
PTA remains committed to improving the quality of fixed-line broadband services and ensuring a better internet experience for consumers across the country. The detailed results of the Q3 2026 QoS surveys are available on PTA’s official website for information of the general public.
