All the new plans and upgrades that BSNL has done are at this :
http://www.bsnl.co.in/newsdetailed.php?news_id=352

Theyve gone really mad, for Rs.3300 per month, they are giving 2mbps with a download cap of 20GB only. we can download more using the unlimited plan.

P.S. - The plans here don't mention the unlimited plans. Have they been scrapped or are they still active.

Please read the last two lines in the above news item. The unlimited users are the most affected lot.

UL plans r still active but without any upgradation in speed. That sucks big time.

tanmoy_rajguru2005 · 30-12-2006, 02:05 PM

who will go for UL plan if it stays in only 256? we can download lot more in the free hours in the Home 500 plan. If this really happens I am gonna change my plan to Home 500

And you can spend a lot more sleepless nights like I did b4 I switched to UL

Chirag · 30-12-2006, 02:22 PM

Yea even I m gonna stick with ul plan even if it is at 256 kbps.

hard_rock · 30-12-2006, 02:28 PM

Guyz.. My exams are going on... So I dont browse so often now. But my COMPUTER does it duty very honestly between night 2-8AM. Now after 2 days when I checked the status of my torrent downloads...Voila... All completed 100%.. I was shocked... So opened DUF and here is the screenshot. But now on checking at speedtest.net it is showing 150kbps download and 80kbps upload.. Are they testing the speed or already given 1mbps????

Same here.

planetcall · 30-12-2006, 03:39 PM

thats really amazing. I wonder when other ISPs are gonna announce their competitive plans.

When I was at home I clocked max 15.5 GB on my 256Kbps H500 plan

I will test the taste of 2MBPs when i get back to home again

Vyasram · 30-12-2006, 04:15 PM

i thought of changin to ul900 last month, but luckily i didn't , h500 plan rocks

Yeah man.. You did right!! I think downloading faster at night 6 hours is better than downloading all time with slower speed...All my torrent ratios have increased due to higher speed. I'm satisfied with this speed!!

NucleusKore · 30-12-2006, 07:43 PM

I think they have already increased. My friends who were getting 30 kpbs download speeds are now claiming 100 kpbs

planetcall · 30-12-2006, 08:31 PM

I am using YOU Telecoms . I wonder what they are deciding and how long will it take for them.

subhajitmaji · 30-12-2006, 08:44 PM

The portal is not accessible at http://10.240.112.195/ for the last 2 days. Dont know what they r doing!!

s18000rpm · 30-12-2006, 09:34 PM

^^isnt this the portal addrs. http://10.240.48.195/

planetcall · 30-12-2006, 09:45 PM

I just checked bandwidth of my system at home. I cant believe over my eyes....It is 41632Kbps. I am flat dead. Missing home more than ever. i wonder what I could do with all this power.

tanmoy_rajguru2005 · 30-12-2006, 09:48 PM

if its 2Mbps then its 8 times faster than UL 250Kbps. That means even if u download only 2 hours lets say from 6 to 8 am its same as 8 hours download in unlimited plan. LOL.
and also they have increased D/U limit from 1 GB to 2.5GB. thats enough for normal net surfing without download.

webgenius · 30-12-2006, 09:52 PM

d/l speed: 893.6 kbps
u/l speed: 200kbps

Home 500 plan. Bangalore.

But that is only between 2a.m. and 8 a.m....there goes your sleep unless you have found some ftp which has everything you need or you have a RS premium account

planetcall · 31-12-2006, 12:16 PM

^^ Royal there is something called automation. You can automate your tasks

I have reached to maximum consumption limit of about 15.5 GB with the pity 256kbps line on H500 plan. It was all automated downloading at full throttle for the 6 happy hours

Since most of my downloads are from RS, can you teach me how to automate with Rapidshare free account ?

That could be your new year gift to me .
