kshah 452 Report post Posted December 27, 2006 I am been using BSNL broadband since more than a year and has not faced problems except for couple of hours twice or thrice. They respond to complaint faster and speed is excellent, with my business 1200 plan I get download speed of 30-34 KBPS. Almost 100- 105% of defined speed. Lowest I get is 24 KBPS, which is again almost 80% which is acceptable norm worldwide. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

VD17 0 Report post Posted December 27, 2006 Confirmed: All plans except UL 900 get 2 Mbps speed (subject to technical feasibility in that area) from 2007. Rumour: Home UL 900 to get 512Kbps. (some guy in the dataone orkut community posted it) So BSNL's the choice... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
spdf 0 Report post Posted December 28, 2006 With all the plans upgrading to 2Mbps, the UL plan should be upgraded to at least 1Mbps. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
HetalDP 947 Report post Posted December 28, 2006 (edited) Umlimited will not get more than 512 Edited December 28, 2006 by hpnasik Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
spdf 0 Report post Posted December 28, 2006 512kbps is enough to start with and then they can double the speeds depending upon how well their servers perform with increasing traffic. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
