Hi,


Suggest ISP except BSNL, Airtel & Reliance.


Can you guys suggest me a reliable ISP for stable high speed broadband connection.

I have asked BSNL, Airtel & reliance for it, but they have yet setup their stuffs in my area.

BSNL people, in the month of February, said it'll take them 6 months for laying underground cables, since my area is a new layout/colony.

same reason from Airtel.

Reliance personnel advised me not to take their connec. as he himself was unsure whether there'll be good signal reception.

Had taken demo card of BSNL EVDO, that thing showed only one "bar" in its signal strength.

Finally got Tata Docomo 3g data demo card, worked like a charm since it has a tower just 100ft away from my house :p


I'm using Docomo since then, but its just too expensive rs. 1250 for 10gb @ max 3Mbps.

& the Valve tards keep releasing 100MB updates for TF2 twice a week, every week :|:-x:banghead:

I can't d/l TopGear latest episode either :|



I have no faith in BSNL, so guys suggest me an ISP

How is Sify broadband?

Is it stable, trouble free?

I would have applied for a BSNL conn and waited for it. Wireless is always more expensive.

Sify doesnt sound good.

Try going for an unlimited 3G plan, you can either use a USB dongle or USB tethering if you have a compatible smartphone.
