I live in Aarey colony near royal palms mumbai. The only broadband providers are Tikona and pacenet..

Installed tikona last week.. Not working at all. download speed of 3 to 4 kbps for unlimited 600kbps plan.. planning to terminate

other option local cable provider. He says the ISP is pacenet.. Should i go for it ?

Please suggest if i can go for anyother alternative..

Thanks in advance

Try WiMax from BSNL if available...
Or purchase a 3G data card from BSNL again..

I am sorry I had no idea that BSNL does not operate at places where MTNL exists (in Delhi and Mumbai only I guess) but there should surely be BSNL mobile service in there?

You can purchase these 3G data cards from Chennai and use it in Mumbai :)
It won't charge extra. But please make sure first that you have a BSNL 3G tower nearby.

Good idea.. Let me explore this option. Thanks for your help :)

Any idea about pacenet though?
