hmm... u know there r many post here telling the same answer that u wont b charge although BSNL monitoring the (Free Night hours) data trancefar....

but ur timing suggest that u r logd in just 1min 45sec b 4 2AM & didnt disconected.... so then the question is does BSNL has any thing to count second by second data trancefar?? if not... then might that whole 730MB will b charge....

Ohh.. today I did till 8:45 am (as I had many extra mb)..
No man, you wont be charged for it. Perhaps they have some other meter other than what we see in the dataone.in.
No, that IP dont mater much, you will be charged from 2am to 8am only , even thou you have connected before or after that time.
