I am in gurgaon, so maybe airtels plans here are different than in Delhi.

I have subscribed to their 256MB plan. Its been some time now, but at that time, they did not have a 512plan for home users.
Has that changed now?
Also also, the 256 that they gave me is actually 1:4 whcih means I shall get anything between 64kbps and 256kbps, depending on how the other users are using the connection at a given time. Has that changed as well?

256kbps unlimited 999/month
Thats airtel for you.
I am on BSNL 512kbps 1800/mo, but not unlimited
Its unlimited between 2am and 8am.
I get 60-70KBps
since you are at 3-5kBps, the 25-30KBps(256kbps) on airtel will be good enough for ya.

yes , its a new scheme started by airtel...512kbps at 1000pm including one landline connection.
unlimited download and download speeds approx 50KB/s.
u could visit airtel broadband website for contact details for your respective regions.

I think Airtel is not available in Mumbai. Try iGATE if it is available in your area.

hey heavy foot and rishi

how many comps have you got at home.i have two and one laptop.and my existing isp guy told me that sify doesnt allow you to connect more than one comp per connection.so im not sure if ill be able to use that as i need all my comps connected.

hey observer can you please provide the contact details for i gate and if some one has the airtell details. it would be helpful.

hey revtech i have internet on only one computer at home...i think there is a thread somewhere about sharing the same connection on diffrent computers.

revtech · 16th October 2005, 00:52

with my present internet connection im already sharing it but some one told me with SIFY this is not possible for some reason so i wanted to confrim that.
