Whats "25kpobs" ? Never heard this before. If you are bangalore come to my place and i will show you a speed of 256K (coffee included) and a down load of 32 KB. My address details are at my web site.

@Bharathbala2003
As you know it the unlimited connect is till June only(To encourage more people to take Dataone)@ 256kbps for Rs 500 . The Rs 2000 deposit is for the modem, i think. I dont think there is any unlimited connection from Dataone yet.

Dude, let me clarify that it 256kpbs which means per sec 256 kb is transf, isnt it...... But then why even between 20-25 what i get a file of 1 mb takes abt 3-4 mins to downlaod..... shouldnt it donwload within 4 secs.....

Lemme know

Ahh, there is your mistake. 256kbps doesnt meant you get a download speed of 256kbps. Download speed on a 256kbps connection is about 25-32kbps.

learn the basics


256 kbps = 32 KBps


the ISP talks in terms of kilo bits per second for their connection speed while users talk in terms of Kilo Bytes per second for the download speed.

Thats 256/8..... That means every sec 32 kb is transf ...... Thats pretty slow then because if u have downlaod large files like 50mb & above it'll take lot of time.....

Is there any software to speed up the connectn.....


Tks........

256 kbps not KBps.
its kilobits not kilobytes

so, its giving 32 KBPS download speed which is the theoritical max u can get from 256 kbps line.

I get a constant 30-31kBps and when i put download express, it shoots upto 37-39Kbps!!!

And when i checked the speed with bandwidth tester extension with FF, then it showed 324 kbps, once! But it usually connects at 230-240 kbps.

Dataone rulez....

It's a plugin which works with IE or IE based browsers like Maxthon.
