05-04-09, 08:06 PM

Not a domestic plan. May be good for Business. Is it a commercial plan or just for domestic customers.

05-04-09, 08:07 PM

superprash2003 · 05-08-09, 12:05 PM

their limit is too low for a 16mbps plan.. i dont think even enterprises would take..

vinit · 05-14-09, 04:03 PM

only a filthy rich dumb guy will go for it

Mr.Tooth Fairy · 05-15-09, 12:14 PM

yes.. even i will tell same.. for such high speed.. 20gb or 50 gb will be nothing..

sharatq · 05-15-09, 12:54 PM

I thought about it, then a local ISP offered me a leased line for 10K a month, which is the equivalent of the Airtel package two times over, except I get comitted speed of 16Mbps and have seen it do 30. I get 150 gigs data transfer, plus I have a service level agreement, and direct phone numbers to the data centre and complaint escalation and compensation for downtime.

I got paranoid about data transfer so regularly record how much I am using, and so far have used about 60 gigs, and the end of the month is the 17th of May for me.

I am pleased I got it, and its one of the best buys I have made. Next year when the contract comes up, I am pretty sure it will be a lot faster and the transfer limit will increase.

There is no need of Airtel 16 mbps for me. I am already using CONNECT broadband way more cheaper than Airtel. I mean I am using 1111 Unlimited plan (speed 300 kbps upto 1000 kbps @ Rs 1111), but sadly it is only available in punjab. I am completely satisfied with it. It is similar to BSNL's 1350 UL (During daytime) and 500 (during night time after 9:00 pm till 10:00 nextday). I am not having problems with watching videos and downloading. It runs without disconnect (24/7)

sharatq · 05-15-09, 05:59 PM

I got close to 11 up and 7.5 down, and had a couple of torrents running in the background. Though I have to say, I do not have a lot of trust in speed tests

Admin has a ridiculous rule of not allowing links until the 15th post, which online is tantamount to being in jail has probably zero effect on spam which is the supposed reason and is as useful as ISP's imposing crappy download limits

If you want to see you have to copy and paste the link and add a w at the start.

I am a member of a number of forums, and I have to say, not interested in this one anymore.

I agree. The 15-post rule is ridiculously annoying.

I too agree that the rule is annoying. But we could find no way of reducing spammed links otherwise. Spams will continue as said. But our spam rate reduced by over 60% after the implementation of the rule.

Anyway, back to topic ...

You feel so because you are new to this place. Once you get used to it, you will notice more worthy features and will love this feature as it avoids spamming to a great extent.
