When ROAMING FREE will start in airtel ???????????/ :O

 

[baccilus]

what companies will do is this..
They will still retain the same FUP crap and instead of call it "Broadband" they will call it "High Speed Internet" .. this is what will happen..

This is true. At least Airtel will surely do this.

Companies will increase speed as well as price too. Poor people who were satisfied my 256 Kbps will now have to pay more. other than speed and roaming, I find nothing interesting in these set of policies. We already had enough rules for consumer protection. But nothing works.

For example, DND. Does it works. I have applied for DND in Aircel, Vodafone, Reliance. But still get ad calls.

great news... but whats the use of more speed if there is no broadband line coverage.. my colony lies inside city circle but still i cant get broadband access...

 

[bubusam13]

Me too. Have to depend on Data card. I have BSNL EVDO 2.4 Mbps on paper but normal speed is average 140 Kbps.

 

[sarthak]

2 Mbps minimum and atleast 100 Mbps by 2015.................... looks lame after reading on engadget that verizon's doubled its speeds. Now they have minimum 15 Mbps and max 300 Mbps download speed. By 2015 if we get to 100 Mbps they will have speeds in Gbps.

^The 1 gbps is already common, the next big thing is 2gbps

 

[tkin]

I yearn for the day one will have 1MBps no FUP broadband @ 500/- and 2MBps no FUP @ 1k.

Airtel started 4G LTE in kolkata, don't know the details but I bet prices will be astronomically high.

it was proposed in december , but was not approved by the cabinet
there are 5 differences between ntp 2011 and ntp 2012
now that it has been approved with the due changes, DoT will start implementing it in the next few months

As long as such crappy FUP exist in india, no policy can be a success..
