Nice to have this info in one thread:

ISP: BSNL
Internet Type: Broadband
Cost Per Month: Rs.827 (incl taxes)
Speed: 512Kbps
Actual Download Speed: 60kBps
Connectivity: Unlimited
Total Data Usage(Approx.): Hard to say as I have never tried to measure it but approx 50GB+

As I have started using torrents nowadays I maintain dl/ul ratio of 1, that's why 50+, otherwise I download no more than around 25-30GB data.

Warning to everyone.

Speed advertised: 2mbps = 2048kbps
Actual download speed: 2048/8 kBps = 256 kBps. [Write what your computer says and use kBps not kbps...if you're a smartass, then multiply what your computer says by 8 and write it as kbps. 110*8 = 880 kbps. B is for byte and b is for bit.]

I'll be handing out bans. yup, for such a small thing. joking

Yesterday i checked in MTNL mumbai 3G data card tariff only available max 3G2500 @25GB/month

& BSNL 3G datacard is excellent with a unlimited plan but is it available in mumbai (BSNL office?)???

BSNL has discontinued their unlimited plan.

BSNL can be used in MTNL signal on roaming.
