High Speeds on Airtel's home 699 plan!!
Im getting a constant 60 KBps (that's 512 kbps instead of the normal 128 kbps that i should get!) since afternoon today.. Anyone else experiencing the same? Has Airtel upgraded the speeds? And mind you, im on an unlimited plan!

Wow, speed boosts are occurring earlier than expected. It seems you have been upgraded to 512kbps unlimited plan at Rs.699 p.m. Congratulations. Yesterday I talked to airtel customer service in my city and they told that it would be another 2 weeks before they announce new plans. Seems the new plans have arrived.  The bad part is that due to BSNL blocking the space for underground cables, Airtel cannot provide me broadband in my home.

Re: High Speeds on Airtel's home 699 plan!!
^^ Try rebooting your router.. And i dont think its temporary since 2-3 more people have reported the same.. (from different areas).

Re: High Speeds on Airtel's home 699 plan!!
it used to happen to my airtel connection.... on occasional sundays, i'd get 50-60kbps d/ls.... that used to be fun... but now that they know how badly i abuse this connection, i guess they've blacklisted me or sumthn...

Re: High Speeds on Airtel's home 699 plan!!
i am in chandigarh on airtel 699 plan (128kbps ultd)
since the start, i havent been getting double the speed at night (as i have read abt it at some places)
since abt last week of december, i have been getting lower net speeds than usual.
however on 11, 12 jan i got almost double the speed (i.e.on torrents d/ld+ u/ld =30-34kbps) from morning till evening or so (when i had restarted my modem, the speed was back to its usual slow self)
however, no such luck today....
is airtel planning to come out with newer plans also? (fingers crossed...
