BSNL to offer broadband connectivity at 2 mbps

[Charley]

I get 219-220KBps .

You mean on downloads and uploads ?

 

[Ricky]

I am also on UL 900
Its seems that now we are not even getting 256kbps ..
Speedtest.net is accurate site as per my experience only problem I feel is that singapore server test server is not capped somwhow by bsnl .

 

[planetcall]

your speed also depends on the remote servers and the distances and the hops. So you need to have an average of a few speed tests. I believe speedtest.net is quite good as it provides many servers to test yr speed. Do 5 tests and take an average. That would be good enough

 

[subhajitmaji]

i reside in kolkata & hence use to test the speed from calcuttatelephones site
*www.calcuttatelephones.com/bandwidthmeter/initialmeter.php

I know that but test from singapore server is giving around 1000kbps whereas other servers are giving below expected ie. around 150kbps ! and downloads are also arnd same ie. slower.
It means something with singapore server !

Site is alright , only problem is that bcz of firefox and opera's caching algo, it gives misleading results after first test.

Try this on IE 6 and you will get almost accurate result bcz IE 6 is dumb in caching but useful here

So, what'd you expect! BSNL specifically mentions on their website that the unlimited plans will not be upgraded.

What *smilies.sofrayt.com/%5E/_950/upset.gif.

i know, that speed for UL plans were not upgraded. i was just trying to tell that the speed test @ thatsite is not perfect.

 

[Vyasram]

all those speed test sites are crap, none of them is good including speedtest.net (they show 300kbps while i'm gettin 250KBps dload)

 

[tarey_g]

Ok here is my experiance after 30 dec.
I mostly play online games on BB. i m using 900 plan, Bsnl from last 6 months On 30 dec. i got slow surfing and downloading speed but my ping was ok as it was before. The problem got worsed on 3 jan, 4 jan, 5 jan (i nearly got 65 Kbps) but still ping seems ok. Now from 5 jan i m getting more than 150 Kbps but WTF ping goes over 1000. I never saw ping over 1000 +. But still im not getting anywhere near to 256Kbps. As usual i complaint them but no effect. Between i dont see any plus point of increasing speed to 2Mbps for other plans.

Can u guys plss put ping result from this I.P. 62.189.19.246

Cuz i wanted to make sure it isnt only mine problem.

THX
**** BSNL

i am getting 333 ping on that ip.

btw , this may fix your problem.

First upgrade your modem firmware to the latest. I have MT880 modem , i upgraded the firmware and did the following settings which provided a better ping rate. If you already have the latest firmware then apply these settings too.

Open your modem seetings by typing this ip 192.168.1.1 in the web browser.(usrnm pass : admin,admin)
click on advanced>>ADSL settings
You can see the following ADSL modulation setting options here
*img151.imageshack.us/img151/6506/liudd0.jpg

I tried out every option and got th following ping results

The pings (for my Dataone gateway) i got for each ADSL modulation settings are as follows :

On ADSL2+ and ADSL2 44-52 ms
On T1.413 and G.DMT 48-64 ms
On Glite 25-35 ms
Multimode is G.DMT

Result suggests that Glite provides the least ping.
