I have COMBO 2799 i.e. 8MBPS broadband. Their servers can't even manage that. I have to go through problems very often. I wonder how they'll manage 24MBPS.

Those illiterate technicians at BSNL don't know a single thing. They took almost a month to upgrade my speeds from 2MBPS to 8MBPS when I upgraded my plan from HOME 500 to COMBO 2799.

9999..??
Hahaaa...

 

[azaad_shri75]

who cares for that, am happy with 500 plan and would be very happy if they upgrade the existing 256kbps to 512kbps and 2.5gb limit to 3-5gb,without raising any prices, that would be more than enough.

BSNL's efforts are much appreciated..and thanks for the news soumya.
My friends who have spent some time in the west make fun of internet speeds we get in India. atleast BSNL is trying to take all of us there. Prices will come down as technology gets cheaper.

My as.s. Not even in the next 5 years will a 24Mbps connection be "somewhat" affordable in India. You can expect 8Mbps to be a bit more common though. If I'm not being overly cynical, then 2011 should shee widespread usage (note the emphasis) of 2Mbps lines across all ISPs in India.

really in India internet connection are very costly.I am paying £15 for 10Mbps connection.But at least no ban for torrent.enjoy downloading.

I always wonder why we cant get net connection without limits (or at least descent data limits at lower prices ) and higher speed.

I am now in Germany and this is what i am getting
