i don't think they are going to boost 256 kbps unlimited plan speeds...

 

[magnet]

anispace..its 2mBps=2mega bits per second...so 2048/8 u should get 256 kBps max speed.....med gettingard 192kBps so its near the mark...also tech i guess med is on unlimit plan

@kalpik : its "prozilla", it supports split downloads.

@anispace : Its actually 193 "KBps", not "kbps". Its the fault of the software developer for ignoring such a simple thing! Neways its the most trusted dld manager I have! I was surfing like 10 sites simlutaneoulsy when this was downloading! The maximum speed reached was around "223 KBps". Thats ver near to 2 Mbps. Neways we can never get 2Mbps straight. Becoz of headers of the packets, some bandwidth is wasted for the headers. So the "actual bandwidth = total bandwidth - bandwidth spend on headers" !


@tech_mastermind : Yesterday, I called my friend who was having FULL unlimited plan. Well, I told him about my Godly experiences and when he tested his speed, guess what........he was getting around 214 KBps. Huh, lucky a**, he didn't know it!
I just hope I get the same as he is getting!

i am too getting high speed now but it is not constant..sometimes it goes up 220KBps while sometimes it remains at 130KBps..

 

[mediator]

^^I told ya so , 130 KBps is still enough at peak traffic hours!

Are you guys using torrents or download managers?

Are you guys using torrents or download managers?

Download Manager(Flash Get)

On windows "getright", on linux "prozilla"! Most of the time data is fetched via limewire!

Here is my speed test result picture..

Hey guys are the limited plan users are in a loss with this MTNL's upgrade to 2Mbps plan ??? Im on a 256 Kbps plan and 700 MB as my d/load limit.

Sumtimes i get a d/load speed (as seen in Free d/load manager) of 193 kbps but never more than that. I recently d/loaded Adobe photoshop CS2 approx` 400 MB and the d/load started at a speed of say 180-193 kbps but slowly within 4-5 mins dropped to the 100kbps mark, Y is tat ?? Y its not constant ??


Please reply...


Cheers n e-peace....
