Try BSNL'S new 256kbps broadband service.At Rs 500/- p.m. and a 1GB transfer limit it is one of the cheapest solutions.

Cheap Internet over GPRS

You can surf the net over GPRS by connecting your PC and mobile. Airtel charges 600/month for unlimited downloading without any download limit. If you have an EDGE enabled handset then you will get downloading speeds of about 15 to 20 KBps

but surfing without edge using gprs is tiresome.. gives only dial up speed!

My cablewallah at Cuttack recently upgarded my connection from 64kB to 256kB! Steady download speeds of 30-35kB. At 500 bucks pm, its a steal. Who cares for dial-up?

@bharatbala: The upgrade was largely due to DataOne being introduced! So even though I dont have DataOne, I am a big fan of it. :)
