[Hitboxx]

Pathetic. I got an UL 1mb new connection just last month. Now, I have called in for disconnection. Time to look for some other.

ROFL. I guess it was only a few days back that you were bragging about it on IRC ?

BSNL H500 looks better now ?

I am still able to download a lot. These guys throttle speed per individual connection. So I work around by running several downloads at the same time. Works really well, as long as downloads are all resumable.

Is 150 GB insufficient for you? What's your HDD space, 1000 TB?

 

[Hitboxx]

Yeah, ffs. I am blasting all possible CC people I am able to get on phone. "Forget movies and music and what not, think it from a perspective of a Linux user. WTF man! Think about the distros you download for testing, the updates on the stable ones, the bug reports...and so, on and on, omfg, pure BS." that's what I told them.

And not to forget, the daily online gaming ritual. shize! This is cutting deep and it hurts bad.

But it is no use blasting the CC people...they keep disconnecting the line...

Can you Guys Post the SOURCE PLZ >>???

 

[Ethan_Hunt]

Holy Cow! I was just thinking of jumping on the Airtel bandwagon but this news just took me back. Am better off with MTNL NU for now.

 

[MetalheadGautham]

^^As of now, unless you want to game, nothing beats BSNL H500.

For gaming, local cable operators offer _the_ best pings ever.

It is confirmed dead sure in Bangalore, I called up CC and it's an affirmation.

^ There are many people who'll be ignorant enough to continue with us outrageously devised schemes, one which are made with the sole purpose of cheating consumers.

Comeon, why a sissy ? Did you threaten them with lawsuits ? Did you shout at them ?

 

[Faun]

^^and yeah they are doing this for "fair play" Everyone should get internet

 

[MetalheadGautham]

^^Then ask them to lower price from Rs. 2222 to Rs. 1500 for their so called "unlimited" 1MBPS.

 

[Faun]

^^get rich or fcuking die with 15GB limit ! *

* there is always a catch

 

[MetalheadGautham]

*update*:

everyone is welcome on IRC to see Hitboxx getting pwned by airtel CC women LIVE right NOW

 

[The_Devil_Himself]

I demand some |337 p0rn DVDs to be sent to me with my bill to compensate for this sh!.t.

 

[gopi_vbboy]

hehe aitel net suxx..nothing beats BSNL H500...my usage around 80GB @ 2Mbps (260KB/S Max including freetime) ..now airtel users already have slow speed...now again slowing is a bad idea

bsnl ul750 may be good alternative for the sufferers here

 

[MetalheadGautham]

H750 SUCKS.

Hathway is MUCH MUCH better if you want the slow 256kbps internet for gaming.

I know guys with dual internet plans, who keep a gaming (slow speed low ping) cable internet line along with a BSNL H500c plan (1.5GB limit, free phone, no rental, NU).


NOTE: H500 is 2.5GB limit while H500c is 1.5GB limit but with zero rental for phones. I personally prefer H500 because 1.5GB is too less for casual youtube during daytime.
