I am still wondering wt* is going on with bsnl for 2 days...getting constant 2-4mbps after fup on ul950....sounds like theres some news coming in..
I remember reading somewhere in the forum that to increase ping rates in Chennai and Bangalore, BSNL is re-routing the connections for other consumers. It went something like to connect to a server in Singapore, rather than routing through the sea link from Chennai, it goes all the way to Los Angeles via Japan and then comes back to Singapore.
Even I have started getting the spike up to 4Mbps since yesterday evening. Am sorry to disappoint you once again, but this is a common occurrence with BSNL. Don't keep your hopes too high.
Yes, even I do be happy if some news is really coming up from BSNL's side.
Another thing that I've noticed is that am usually connected to 117.x.x.x based IPs( NIB 2 ?), but when I get these spikes, am connected to 59.x.x.x (NIB 1?). Any reason behind that?

Ya man i have never got such spikes atleast in last one year post fup... its not spike, i get constant speed...
downloaded 12gbs of 1080p movies yesterday itself lol...watever hope it stays..
btw I get ip in 117.x range and 59.x is never assigned .

BSNL is very unreliable since a few months. I get lots of disconnection. Recently bsnl checked the line and it worked fine for a few days. Today morning I switched off the modem to reset the connection so as to get the maximum FUP speed, but after turning on the modem the connection is not establishing even after hours.
always check your snr & attn values in modem info page.snr values should be 15 or above & attn values must be less than 50.

Contacted bsnl exchange and after a few hours the problem is solved. Problem was some kind of blown fuse at exchange end.
snr and attenuation seems to be within the limits
SNR Margin : 39.1 6.1 db
Line Attenuation : 11.3 8.3 db

is it true that unlimited 2 mbps plan will be there by bsnl because of some TRAi reforms??

@baiju,your snr value of 6.1 is very bad.it must be above 15 based on your good attn values.poor snr values results in frequent disconnections.
^^your modem is not using the standard scale to show values but using 0.1dB scale so divide these values by 10 to get standard values:
snr:7.4 16.3
attn: 23.5 13.3
your downstream snr of 7.4 is poor.it should be at least 15 considering your downstream attn is 23.5.
snr:7.4 16.3

It is heavy rain here since two months and I think this must be the reason for such low values. Interesting thing is that the exchange is hardly 300 meter away. My connection is 512kbps UL, the normal download speed is around 55kBps. During FUP period it is only 90kBps.
Reading just now:
Is this good?
Modem is TP-Link
Reading just now:
