This is great news for BSNL. they will get lot more customers and certain doom for Reliance. 2/- per MB on reaching 10Gb. That is really pathetic. And moreover 1700/- per month for those outside city. Now, I feel speed reduction by Airtel is much much better way than the other's plan.

A cartel is a formal (explicit) agreement among firms. It is a formal organization of producers that agree to coordinate prices and production


these private ass h0les have surely formed cartel.. and since prev airtel and vodofone ( i think so ) jointly suggested price tags few months ( may yrs also ) and was caught of doubt being CARTELS and investigated for it .. , this time around these companies are making sure they dont get caught...



guys is there a way any non profiting org can take over this isp thing ??


actually wht does isp do ??


we create contents... and we view them and this middle man(ISP) is fcuking everybody fron and back!!!

should there be a ISP ??

is there a way or could some one create a way to interconnect all systems ???

ISP think as if they are the ones who provide us with content .. but in real it we people....

ALRIGHTY THEN. Today its RELIANCE.


BSNL will surely jump into the bandwagon....probably after 2 months so that they can get customers who shift from other ISP's.





btw, Reliance's scheme is worst of them all...Rs 2 per MB AFTER 10 GB !?! WHAT THE FCUK !! 10 GB limit ???

It's okay if unlimited use plan is not there on wireless broadband, but they shouldn't call it unlimited in that case. Hope it's not implemented on wired connections.

Exactly.. don provide UL plans but at least don say it's UL then! They must explain how it is technically UL?

Is this applicable for Night unlimited and day limited.

Im with BSNL, IF BSNL come up with this FUP, will the 2:AM to 8:AM unlimited be also with FUP?

^Shouldn't be. It's already a capped plan, why on earth would they want to cap an already capped plan? If they cap the NU plan as well, then I would loose all faith in this country's internet services.

^Itna khush kkyun hai tu?
BSNL would definitely join them as we all need internet so if all the alternative companies follow the same rules then we have to get used to this stupid loot. We dont have any hope.

^Not necessarily. Just because private companies are doing it, doesn't mean government owned ISP's would follow suit. NU plan is supposed to consist of a free time allocated in the existing capped download plan. It makes no sense to cap this plan.

Fair Usage my foot.
if they r all that concerned bout stopping piracy then why not block p2p/other such sites from where piracy spreads.
atleast that way we'll be able to find a work around.
