In case you missed it, Ogero has been testing out the maximum capability of the current internet infrastructure. Imad Kreideh, the new director general of Ogero, held a live Q&A on Facebook where he announced the company’s plans to improve the internet in Lebanon.

was that they will be testing the maximum available internet speeds – uncapped. Over 130,000 people in Beirut alone were able to test out these speeds during a 3-day period. On Thursday, April 27th, Ogero will be “unleashing the speed” in 6 locations:
- Tripoli Tell
- Tripoli Mina
- Bab El Tebbeneh
- Zgharta
- Batroun
- Jounieh
It’s TOMORROW! Tag your friends in Day 4 of #UnleashTheSpeed and send us your testing feedback on: https://t.co/VALkO8obsM pic.twitter.com/xN6shIXCMO

If you live in any of the above locations, you are encouraged to leave them feedback during or after the testing. You can do so
. Almost all the feedback from Beirut’s testing was positive.
