Sounds like great service.

Even I was once user of BSNL but happily left it for the same old cable issue.

Railwire uses fibre technology (FTTH) and uses an Optical fiber based modem. My local cable operator handles the operations. Talking to him solves most issues.

Railwire is also proving wifi at railway station in alliance with google - we can get it on pretty much most of the major stations - the speed is good enough and at-least better than jio 4g which is degrading in quality day by day.

For Kerala as well, better FUP limits and post FUP speed to 512 Kbps is happening. Almost same as TN.

I am on 20 mbps plan, 100 GB BW per month. 1 Mbps after FUP.

Here is the latest rate i see on the web site

It is same as before, i can't see any change.

FUP speed to 512 Kbps is happening

As think FUP speed was 1 mbps when i started using railwire like 1 year ago. 512 Kbps ? Are they going to reduce FUP speed ?

For 949 they were offering 75 Mbps with 300 GB. Looks like something is going on with their website.

Something happened in between. I even confirmed about the changes with the LCO. Only think I can think of is an ongoing website update.

In TN, post FUP speed is 1 Mbps now in BSNL.

When you have 300 GB for less than ₹ 1,000 , you wouldn't care about post FUP speed :)

Not sure about after fup speed. LCO said it was currently less than 1mbps. But will improve from April onwards.

From what was posted on the Railwire website previously, all FUP plans have post FUP speed of 512 Kbps. The plans are being allotted even though they are not listed anymore on the website

I didn't go with the 75 Mbps plan. Though router and adapter was capable of supporting it. Wifi link speed on mobile was at 65 Mbps. I guess that's the limit there.

Is it an ulterior plan by the government to restrict piracy or something? Otherwise how to explain the ridiculous 512 Kbps speed?
