Officially you should get 384 kbps or 48 KB/s. But some people have said that they get more that this. You may be lucky also.

Regarding payments, please ask Airtel sales. Somethings that I will advise are:

- do not pay any advance
- always pay by cheque; this way you have a record.
- if advance is a must, then insist on a receipt and a written commitment - say connection will be made in 7 days of realization of cheque
- insist on knowing all terms and consitions including tranfer charges (if you shift residence), min hire period, early disconnection charges (if any), etc.

Thanks For Info But the speed u r telling that is 48KB/s will i get speed of atleast 45-48KB/s most of the time or it will be very low sometimes.

And also i have heard some availability Problem of connection with Airtel that is they don't provide more than certain number of connection in a area(in my case a Whole Pocket).
I currently Using TATA Which Expires on OCT 20,2008.
But with the speed that Airtel is Laying it's Cable i think they will come by Mid-September itself.So since i will be having my Validity in MY TATA account so should i just Pay the Installation Money which they say is 500+300=800.And can i tell them i will be out of town for a Month or so so can i that way Hibernate my connection for some time.

And the cost of 384Kbps connection here is 999+Taxes=approx Rs 1122
which is what i am paying for my 256Kbps connection

Thanks

As you can see from my user details, I am from Pune and I have no idea about service quality, speed assurance, etc. from Airtel in Delhi. Hence I cannot answer your questions. All I can say that I heard that Airtel is good in Delhi. But I can tell you that Airtel sucks big time in Maharashtra (excl Mumbai) - for BB as well as Mobile.

My advice has been restricted to general idea about how to go about for payments, etc.

You raised another point regarding paying Rs. 1122/- to Airtel for a 384 kbps connection when you are paying the same for a 256 kbps connection. To me this sounds a great reason to switch.

Please if somebody could tell about the plan i am asking about it will be good rather than telling abt the Rs2222 plan.

smoothvibes

airtel is best ISP in delhi... most of the users want airtel in delhi but cannot get it as it is not available everywhere...

if airtel is available in your area then i suggest you go for it
