Yeah guys, the speeds are really slow.. today in 5 hours, I could transfer 350 mb down and 100mb up only..
Even the browsing speeds are slow now.. Google is taking 30-40 secs to open!!

I am thinking of switching over to Airtel, 1gb is not going to be enough for me, now my brother also using the connection..

Hey Grudge i didnt find any slow speeds today i guess some problem in some line in your area this happens quite frequently

 

[iChaitanya]

Its feeling like hell here!

very slow speeds!

i dunno wats wrong!

 

[mr_356]

Yes i also wanted 2 know tht but the problem is tht shuting down the pc is not the ulimate goal.wen the pc shuts down lan does get disconnected but u r still connected to ur isp as the router is still working and thus u r still online i have checked this.thus even if ur pc shuts down n if ur router is on even after 8 am ur nite MB get counted in ur day usage so can plz anyone tell me a soln to this problem such as can my router(9V) draw power from my cpu via a USB port (using some kind of attachment) or via a serial port or some other way but it has 2 be from the cpu itself so wen the pc shuts down router is also switched off

Are you sure?
So it means i have to wake up(if i m in sleep!!!)to turn of the modem.
I dont understand the mix hours.
are they count mix hours in unlimited or in regular download.(i hav Home 500 plan).

 

[yrana2002]

No, i dont think so.
I checked my usage in Shaplus, which including mixed usage was 1.8 GB & excluding it was 600MB and i was charged just the 500 bucks for my 500Home plan.

 

[praka123]

Yep.here also same 500 only for mixed hour usage also...

 

[drgrudge]

Lol.. today in 5 hrs 50 mins, I could download only 275mb!!! As it is, we have only 6hrs a day and now the connection is as good as it used to be, I am frustrated, it's matter of time till I switch to Airtel.

It provides u a differentiation facility of viewing ur usage without the free & mixed usage periods, which of course is counted as ur real usage.
Well, it is absolutely safe to use it. You may config your firewall to ensure that it doesn't pass on the information to somewhere else.
I think the non-password section is of no use as it means going on to the bsnl site & logging in & stuff like that.

Well, I am usinf ZoneAlarm as a firewall. Now if I want to use ShaPlus, how do I configure my firewall so that the password cannot be passed to anywhere else except to login to the Dataone website.

Well, i dont know about Zone alarm, here's how to do it using Windows Firewall:

1. Open Security Center and choose Firewall options ( you may go there by right clicking your connectoin & choosing Change Firewall settings:
2. In the Exceptions tab, click Add program & add dataone bandwidth from shaplus.
3. Now, click on that entry, choose edit...
4. Click "Change scope".
5. Select Custom List and add the dataone url:
10.240.89.199
Note: For this to work, ensure that you have Exceptions as enabled. You can enable it in the General Tab.
