Hmm, no it will be faster than dial up and slower than 256 mtnl plan. Around 100kbps connection.

Yes, AIRTEL has launched the same 256kbps, 1gb tr. rate rs. 500 plan, but it will be avialble only for the area where dataone is launched
There plan starts from rs. 350.

Airtel has it's service where it has their fixed telephone connections. 6 circles only.
