Rep Power: 1 | These spikes in speed happen sometimes. A while back, everyday for halp an hour, I used to get 2 mbps download speed. Once, for 10 minutes I got 2.5 MB/s upload (equivalent to ~16 Mbps) speed |

| Platinum Member | wow u r one lucky chap... i think the boost was there for quite some time and i hadn't discovered it; partly because there's nothing left for me to download hey i reset the router and the speed boost is there again!!!!! the LAN data light's glowing near constantly on the comp now lol... it went away just now, and restarted router again and again it came back Last edited by StarK; 02-06-09 at 12:48 PM.

Rep Power: 2 | It has to do something with technical details. It happens when companies make changes in their DSLM at their end. And they dont care if some bandwith is lost to customers as its very much cheap for them. But BSNL is government entity so has to answer to them if these things happen and they believe in giving nothing for free. Lol The boost ended that morning itself, but i am happy i downloaded around 8Gb. Hope it comes again fast |

| Amor vincit omnia | Many subscribers of BSNL has also reported the same when they are being migrated to the new NIB 2 network. I personally know two subscribers in Kolkata who enjoyed 8mbps for two months. |

Rep Power: 2 | But all will agree that Airtel is only the service provider where theses kinds of boost are common. and in last 1 year or so it had occured to me for 5-6 times |
