@mastercool8695,i know its late but want to clear the situation in your case.in case of cable isp's in peers tab you see the same ip address you use to login because all the traffic is being routed through your cable isp's main router but that does not mean your isp is downloading & distributing any torrent from their server.your isp is simply the medium through which distribution takes place not a source.there is no isp in the world(except India) which download & then distribute torrents using their servers & never will be.

No, some local ISPs have their own servers, like alliancebroadband in kolkata, they seed popular torrents, they have a 30TB NAS, keeps a lot of files cached. Saves bandwidth a lot.

And yes its illegal.

they have a 30TB NAS, keeps a lot of files cached

what can i say?it happens only in India

 

[mastercool8695]

660 , 20 gb fup , 768 kbps after reaching fup

i mean do they charge for usage above FUP ??

@tkin: i dont think its illegal until you are cache-ing legal torrents, is it ??

yup.
30 tb is great..

That's precisely what they cache, ran test, no cache with any popular free linux distro, only for movies/games, they have a pirate site which lists these files as well, only accessible to alliance users.

Its not bad, its just illegal.

isp gets a license to provide net services not to run download servers which i am sure is not included in their license terms & conditions & this is why no isp anywhere in world can legally provide such download service.even linux distribution servers are of organizations/universities & not isp's.

Well, linux distros can be distributed by anyone freely without any license I think. As for pirated stuff, this is India, I can go to a roadside shop and buy anything from the latest movies and games at 50/- per disc, so the net piracy is not that big an issue atm.

To give an example, a roadside cd vendor here once said that he makes a profit of 60k per month, and there are pirate distri chains here that make huge profits.

^^i know linux is free to distribute but isp is not legally allowed to distribute any 3rd party data(aka not created/owned by isp) from their servers as per their license of providing internet services.this is the reason why all linux servers are run by non-profit/business organizations or educational institutions but never by isp.

If permitted they can, cause I remember Sourceforge's codes were hosted by ISP sometime back.

which isp?as far as i know bsnl/mtnl,biggest indian isp,has never offered any software to download except their own modem software.even for adobe reader bsnl sites simply say that to read pdf documents(manual etc) user need to download & install adobe reader & redirect them to adobe's site to download.i seriously doubt that it is legal if isp like bsnl can't provide download to at least some popular softwares/freewares.

On that count, this is alliance boradband kolkata site: Download Softwares

 

[whitestar_999]

i am almost sure that this is illegal even assuming that alliance got permission from these software makers to distribute them(which i seriously doubt).isp is supposed to provide only internet services not distribution servers(email servers don't come under this & the reason why isp's like bsnl provide their own email service even if nobody uses it).

No one cares here.

3g Unlimited.......

View attachment 8758

What's the FUP limit? There has to be one, there are no true 3g unlimited plans, after FUP you'll get reduced speeds.

 

[whitestar_999]

@tkin,there is a way to use unlimited 3g by using proxy/vpn tricks.it works in many circles & with many operators.my brother use this trick on vodafone delhi & download with 2mbps unlimited though connection stability is not guaranteed but still he can use unlimited 2mbps for at least 10-12 hours on any day(limited by proxy he use & not the trick's limit,if you have a premium vpn subscription you can easily achieve 8-10mbps on vodafone delhi).
