[latino_ansari]

[Chirag]

[openSUSE]

[kanishka]

Bsnl Is doing it atleast...Hope the prices come down soon and limit be removed...My friend in uk has connection in home of 16mbps for 10 pound a month...This is what we expect..

I have COMBO 2799 i.e. 8MBPS broadband. Their servers can't even manage that. I have to go through problems very often. I wonder how they'll manage 24MBPS.

Those illiterate technicians at BSNL don't know a single thing. They took almost a month to upgrade my speeds from 2MBPS to 8MBPS when I upgraded my plan from HOME 500 to COMBO 2799.

[hoodiboy]

9999..??
Hahaaa...

[azaad_shri75]

who cares for that, am happy with 500 plan and would be very happy if they upgrade the existing 256kbps to 512kbps and 2.5gb limit to 3-5gb,without raising any prices, that would be more than enough.

BSNL's efforts are much appreciated..and thanks for the news soumya.
My friends who have spent some time in the west make fun of internet speeds we get in India. atleast BSNL is trying to take all of us there. Prices will come down as technology gets cheaper.

My as.s. Not even in the next 5 years will a 24Mbps connection be "somewhat" affordable in India. You can expect 8Mbps to be a bit more common though. If I'm not being overly cynical, then 2011 should shee widespread usage (note the emphasis) of 2Mbps lines across all ISPs in India.

[NIGHTMARE]

really in India internet connection are very costly.I am paying £15 for 10Mbps connection.But at least no ban for torrent.enjoy downloading.

[kjuvale]

I always wonder why we cant get net connection without limits (or at least descent data limits at lower prices ) and higher speed.

I am now in Germany and this is what i am getting



Its University network, same i get in home without limits and as a student getting it free.

So do you download highdef movies or just buffer them online

Hmmm you could be an ISP service provider here with this connection.

[lywyre]

Madness.. I applied for a change of plan from BB3000 2Mbps to promotional BB2800 8Mbps on Dec 30 and as yet I have not got it. Calling them three of four times every week, only empty words but no action.

[celldweller1591]

yet again just a plan. they will never give dedicated speeds which we pay them for . and it is really expensive !

[iinfi]

thank God .. atleast they did put the download cap at 5 or 10 Gigs
u cant expect anything more from Indian ISPs

I've asked you to refrain from going Rambo on posts before. Next time there is no warning, I'll just start handing out infractions and increase its length exponentially for each word you use.

Being frustrated doesn't allow you to bypass the rules.

[vaithy]

Young man I am very sad for you, more importantly to your father,he who fail to raise a Good and better cultured son!

[NIGHTMARE]

^^ why u r taking serious man,wat he explain his frustration.I have story with BSNL the people who working their there such bogus man and they know how to talk.

[Jripper]

SIghs...everyone abroad getting such insane bandwidth at such low prices.
Damn I hate the ISP providers in India and how expensive technology is in India. :\

[celldweller1591]

Technology??? They use primitive techniques. Here in a 1 km cable , you will find more than 50 links which are going nowhere.They cant even afford a single long cable for distant transmissions .They never see if their communication line is going nearby a Power line that causes Harmonic Losses in both lines FTW ! My modem loses its call while working on net or downloading stuff. It comes back after 2-3 min . Sad connection and maintenance. Customer support doesnt know anything beyond windows XP . WOW ~ and India is considered as fastest developing nation.. well i what respect, i dont understand !

[NIGHTMARE]

here 10Mbps connection cost me £20 unlimited but as compare to India all the computer parts are expensive.
