I have to tell you that BSNL will be the one to bring in the lowest price and then all service providers will try to beat that which they haven't been successful in doing so far. Waiting for the new year surprise from BSNL if there is one

With 16K, we can take 32 Home500 lines and enjoy double unlimited!! WTF? These guys have no idea about pricing, regardless of whether the price is going to go down or not, this kind of pricing is simply downright idiotic. I guess the case isn't any different from MTNL who are already providing 2Mbps unlimited for some 27k or something.. I'm not sure

After looking at this do u guys still think BSNL will roll out 2Mbps unlimited for home users at cheap price.I doubt that.Maybe a 512 Kbps unlimited or 640kbps or maybe even 384kbps but certainly not 2Mbps.

BSNL have no 2 Mbps unlimited plan.
The highest unlimited plan is UL 512 kbp-->> Rs. 6000/- per month.
Airtel is offering same @ Rs. 1499/- only.

And Airtel BB have 10 times better support and service than BSNL.
Now who is better.

I dont think it for us..mainly for net cafe owners...web hosting person..
Not for home users..

Yöü have to wait another two years to see price like..

2 mbps unlimited 500 Rs

1 mbps unlimited 250 Rs

Anyway this is only a guess..it may take even longer

Anyway waiting for Bsnl to announce any new scheme as they did prev year..

Let them first launch 512 Kbps UL at Rs. 1500/- per month...Than think of UL 2 Mbps.

At present 512 UL from BSNL is Rs. 6k per month.

The 512Kbps unlimited from BSNL is for business, that's why it's 6000. The same way a home256K unlimited costs only 900, a business256K unlimited costs 3300 which is 3.66times the home cost. So I don't think the airtel plan can be used for comparison here.

This airtel 512 Kbps plan will also have 1:1 bandwidth as commercial plans have.

So, you are nothing going to loose under this plan.

They say just crap @ravi, they are never going to give you 1:1 for a 512K line for Rs1500 a month. If you think I'm lying, then please ask someone who has this connection and ask them if they are getting dedicated 512Kbps all the time or not.

I don't need to ask any1.

I am myself to answer.
I am on Airtel 256 Kbps 1:2 plan.

And it get speed more than 256 Kbps most of time.
My current speed is
265 kbps download
156 Kbps upload speed.

Now see..I am getting more than 256 speed.

Infact in night I get download speed of 42 KBPS. ( 336 Kbps)

@ravi, I understand the point you're trying to make but that doesnt mean it's going be 1:1. I'll give you an example:

I am on 2Mbps cable broadband with a 1:4 ratio. I get 2Mbps all the time and at night i get 3-4Mbps. But that doesnt make it 1:1, does it. When I meant check, i meant to say to check if someone has got that line saying it's a dedicated 1:1 line. Why do you think they are charging 16K for the 2Mbps line? because that justifies the 1:1 ratio. No service provider is going to give you a dedicated line for 1500Rs. simple as that.

Besides, I dont' think airtel provides 1:2 ratio for the 256k lines. They were in the news last year for faking this. They actually had a 1:8 ratio when they told customers that they have 1:2 ratio. Understand, these are expensive, no one will give it to the consumer for free.

Dear...what else U want from your ISP.
They are giving you more than your plan..and U want to fight for 1: 1

Quote:
When I meant check, i meant to say to check if someone has got that line saying it's a dedicated 1:1 line.
Yaar...when they are giving 1:1 in 256 plan..than why can't they give in 512 kbps plan.There can be little fluctuation..but it will be very less.

Sometime speed can be more than 512 Kbps also, and sometimes it can be little less also. These are common problem with all ISP.

And if they are not giving, than make complain.Airtel has best customer support.

Quote:

According to you 2 Mbps plan has dedicated line and 512 plan won't have dedicated line???

I am a using Airtel 256 UL plan for last 2 year..and never seen 1:8 ratio with my speed.

U'll see the difference once the no. of users connecting to the same DSLAM increases.

See ravi, ratio is something that you can never see nor can you tell what ratio the ISP is using. The ISP's have something called pipes running into DSLAM at the exchange. Every pipe has limited bandwidth which will be 2Mbps or etc..etc. Now when you share that pipe with other users you won't notice the difference till the pipes get congested. As of now, Airtel has enough free pipes and DSLAMs to cover up the the very low no. of users it has. But when mroe users come in, I have to tell you that they are not going to increase the no. of pipes, but they will put the new customers into existing pipes to fill up their prescribed ratio and that's when you will see the real effects of contention. You can trust me on this and you know why

@Cyrus_the_virus - If they tell you they are giving you 512 kpbs, and you get that download speed, why are you worried about the ratio? As long as your speed does not drop?
