A Breakdown of the Proposed OGERO Internet Speeds and Prices

   After OGERO conducted tests in various areas of Beirut over three days and increased the internet speed of its subscribers, OGERO’s Director General Imad Kreidieh said the network is ready for greater internet capacity and speed. The Ministry of Communications’ internet price reduction plan is based on uncapped speed and is expected to be approved by the cabinet (view Table A).
