Yup, The BSNL doubled the bandwidth of all UL users.

BSNL need to be privatised and it's top management tier needs to be fired without pension and benefits. What's the use of a promotional scheme when virtually all the subscribers are absolutely unaware of it..forget about non-subscribers.. The first thing I did after noticing the extra BW was to check the BSNL site.

No advertisements were published in local hindi/english newspapers!! and the SDO tech doesn't know what wi-max is or when it will be available in ranchi and kept suggesting me to get a 3G connection which doesn't even work in town, forget about rural area where I stay. Yes, also, the stupid exchange switches off everytime there's a powercut in our village.

Well its a Govt sector. Things will remain messy out there. The paper work in india makes things impossible. Btw, BSNL in ambala too didnt gave any info on the scheme , no banners , no nothing . They should learn to use media for advertisement to get a good hold over market. They need to improve a lot. They should first learn howto manage dsl connections properly and then move to 3g. Dsl to chalte ni, 3g chalane nikle

Yep,BSNL can even handle 256kbps BB properly ATM..........

Is it confirmed that the speed bump will last only till April 26th? (any source or link that you can possibly share)

I too was pleasantly surprised to see the spiked speed (512kbps) on my 256kbps UL 750 Plus bband plan.

BSNL is probably worst in Jharkhand than in rest of India. Believe me, I live here.

With a slowdown

NEW DELHI: The disruption in the SEA-ME-WE 4 undersea submarine cable system, which links South East Asia and Europe, is likely to affect the high-speed Internet services in the country.

The South East Asia-Middle East-West Europe 4 (SEA-ME-WE 4) project links the two regions via the Indian sub-continent and the Middle East. The project is run by a consortium of 16 international telecom companies, including Indian majors Bharti Airtel and Tata Communications.

According to sources, the disruption in the undersea cable network near Italy is likely to hit the broadband connections in India.

Maintenance of the undersea cables will be carried out for the next four days, which may cause some disruption in services.

However, the companies have taken various steps to minimise the impact, sources said.

Going by the project's official website, the undersea cable system has terminal stations in Singapore, Malaysia, Thailand, Bangladesh, India, Sri Lanka, Pakistan, the United Arab Emirates, Saudi Arabia, Egypt, Italy, Tunisia, Algeria and France.

"The project aims to take these regions to the forefront of global communication by significantly increasing the bandwidth and global connectivity of users along its route between Singapore and France," the website said.

You guys are now wondering what the BSNL upto... the orders for increasing speed for the three Unlimited plans(Home) now being confirmed.(if the websites of bsnl units are not updated I'll post the copy here)

Both Home Unlimited 750 and Home combo UL750 has upgraded to 512 kbps speed . BB Home combo Unlimited 1350 plan has now increased the speed 2 mbps upto 15GB (DL/UL)then reduced speed beyond 15 GB at 512 kbps and changed the plan name as BB HOME COMBO ULF 1350
No name change forBB HOME 750 Unlimited as there is no fair usuage..

with regards,
vaithy

look its written in the banner at this site .
*www.motive.bsnl.co.in/

usually speeds double at night...

its permanent .

---------- Post added at 10:56 AM ---------- Previous post was at 10:48 AM ----------

From now onwards HOME 750 UL will have 512kbps speed and HOME 1350 will have 2mbps speed till 15GB and 512kbps after that .

BSNL is clever. 1mbps UL without FUP would have been better. You can download more throughout the month. One can easily finish off that 15GB in a day. MTNL gives me 1mbps upload and download UL for only Rs.999.

India will never get a Broadband revolution.

And Airtel should rot in hell for introducing this FUP crap. All other telecom companies have followed.

i have seen all BSNL plans.. they make fool of you in one way or the other, MTNL is way too better than BSNL though both are PSU but cities are different. If i take plan with greater usage limit, i get 1100rs/m and 15gb usage total

. It will last 4-5 days atmost. Rs750 UL pan @ 256 kbps has got no speeds in this area. Downloads are impossible. So i am stuck with this 500c+ plan with 2.5 gb usage which get exhausted around every 25th of the month even if i work like a bigtime kanjuus crying for usage all the time

+1000.....
I totally agree with you.....

I have done(pissed off) with 3 fcking ISPs till now.
They are :

1.Reliance[stop wired BB for more profit and now pushing me take expensive worthless wirelss BB]

2.BSNL[never get BB connection but I got bill of 5K]

3.Alliance[CC told that 10% packets loss is way too good cos u can download.But no upload or web page will open after reloading 100 times.Its because of one person our fcking cable operator Mr. Gautam Roy Choudhury(TeleDyne,Surya Nagar,South Kolkata),they never fixed my line]

Now I'm using Airtel GPRS.....

chalo 512kbps for 750 is not bad..coz v are in AP..and we dont have MTNL here..it would be gr8 if we had mtnl..

nywys..u wait for a day or two to for 512 speed..servers are getting updated..wait...
