I never even expected... When there are ISPs who limit your bandwidth how can it even figure in that list!

BSNL (and all) broadband in general is a joke.

Default Re: Internet speeds around the world

the "unlimited" plans of various isp are too low in speed and to0 expensive if u ask me...
i currently use bsnl 750 home plan..and now i'm going to change it to home 500..they put a cap on it but if u are into downloading, u can just hold yourself back to 2am ...


whats bsnl's rate for 2mbps unlimited...????
and oh yeah i almost forgot
when i first went to bsnl exchange to change my bb plan, they told me that u cant change it because u have to spend 6 months on your current bb plan and then we can change it..
i said that bsnl's website says that u only need to spend one month on it,they said that its wrong...when i went again after 2 months i.e in april, they said that this is election period and we cant change your broadband plan...lame fu*king excuses!!
