I dont have to wake at 12am
why should I? I wake at I:50 am put the dnld at Q so that estimated time is 6hrs on non resumable dnlds & go to sleep keeping monitor or lid close to reduce power consumption.
I have been on that plan for more than 2 years now. So I know pretty much everything there is to it. I had to wake up at 12:00AM to enqueue the downloads. It's MTNL for me & not BSNL here. Ergo, our timing for NU download is from 12:00AM to 8:00AM,
capiche?
With Airtel, I don't have to do this. Heck I don't even need to wake up at any point of time to do anything. I just need to queue the downloads as per my convenience and
voila, I'm good to go whenever I want.
PS: Even I shut off my monitor, just like every other sane person does, so you mentioning that isn't really helping your argument.
u must clear things in mind.rebooting or just "disconnect n connect" does the same thing in any dynamic ip connection, it changes the ip address.why should I reboot man wtf
First of all, I don't like that tone. Secondly, read my replies properly, I haven't been remotely sarcastic in any of them. So don't push it.
Anyway, just to clear a little air from your tiny mind, rebooting merely isn't changing your Dynamic IP address. It logs you off from that entire session & creates a new one. So let's assume you wake up at 12:00AM sharp (or 1:50AM in your case), switch the router on at that very point & enqueue all your downloads & continue downloading without rebooting your router after 2:00AM or 2:10AM, your session for download is not counted for the unlimited download slot. Read this up at your ISP's website, I'm sure they must have mentioned it. Always reboot (turn off & on) router to begin a new session.
Shutdown of comp is automatic, I think every one knows how to shutdown the comp automatically execpt n
bs.there r tuts available in td itself in tuts section.
I know end number of my friends who have suffered massive bills because of this. They claimed to setup scripts to even shutdown the PC in the morning to avoid waking up early. What they didn't realize was that shutting down the PC doesn't terminate the router's packet transmission to it's server. So you manually have to switch it off. The slightest of mistake would mean doomsday for you. Also you would know how great BSNL & MTNL customer crap support is, don't you? Arguing the bill to get some result would be like waiting for a dead skunk to fart.
And guess what I don't have to do this in Airtel.
Hurrah keep ur bikes burning all the time u have unlimited fuel.
ROTFL! I can't believe you quoted that line. That doesn't serve much as a comeback, seriously.
Also just a slight reminder, I have been here for longer than you can imagine. So rest assured, I'm not a newbie. Next time, think before ranting off.
L DOWN MAN
Stupid housemates watching porn on youtube. Might shift to turbo 1299 plan. One thing is, we have no idea how we crossed 15gb. I mean we are at college from 9 to 5 and we use internet from like 6 till 12am. It says we used 25gb. Can we argue with them and get the bill reduced? Its huge. Also how long does it take to change the plan?
