Cool fooling bsnl

Hello everyone,

I am going to opt for BSNL UL700 plan tomorow, maybe i will get it in a week fully installed........................this is after i saw a cafe using 6 pc's on the UL700 plan of 256 kbps, and all pc are getting same 256 kbps speed or even more

NOW my question is..... I dont have 6 pc's or say i want to use all the 6 pc's speed on my single laptop, can this be done using a splitter and joiner or anything like this?


is there any hardware available to achieve this? can any hardware fool bsnl that we r using 6 pc's and giv the speed of 6 pc's to a single computer?

this way i can access 2mbps on a single pc

i think there must be a hardware which acts like a splliter and then connects all the 6 lans into 1 and gives full speed to that 1

please let me know if you know any name of such software

please let me know what to put in google search for this

I don't think that it will be possible because if we chose 750UL then your bandwidth will be fixed at 256kbps from BSNL server in your account then you can connect many pcs then your total bandwidth will be divide

With a single ISP 's connection, not possible.
With two or more different ISP's connection
to a single computer, speed will not add up.


Load balancing router Google search term.
Quote:
D-Link has recently come out with a load-balancing router for mid-sized businesses that need a secure router for their WANs, be it for connecting to the Internet or branch offices. The D-Link DRO-210i has two WAN ports, two LAN ports, one DMZ and one console port on its rear. And if you don't need a DMZ, the same port can also be configured as a LAN port. Its key features include load balancing and auto backup (Fail over Link). Its load-balancing feature lets you connect two ISP connections on its two WAN ports for load sharing. You can then configure one connection for your mailand the other for Web browsing. Not only this, it can also aggregate the dual Internet connections, so that the total available bandwidth doubles. Its auto-back facility lets you set failover on dual Internet links. So that, if one Internet connection goes down, the other one automatically takes control to ensure continuous connectivity. It also supports NAT (Network Address Translation) for all the combinations of NAT models such as many-to-many, manyto- one and one-toone. It also supports Virtual Server (or Port Forwarding), thereby, enabling remote access to the Company's Servers(HTTP/FTP, etc) from the WAN.

If you have a VoIP setup, you can use this device to run both Internet and VoIP ................

Vicky it is not possible to connect a 256kbps to 2 computers and get 256kbps speed for each

How do you know that all 6 computers get 256kbps each ?

Try downloading a file in all 6 computers simultaneously .... you ll realize that all 6 computers share the 256kbps ....

when you r browsing in all 6 computers the load is not too much , so all 6 computers will be fast and may give you the feeling that they r 256kbps each ...


Its not technically feasible to do such a thing .... if you want 256kbps speed for each you ll have to apply for BB for each computer seperately or share a 2mbps connection

I do not think that BSNL ever fools people - it is people who choose to believe something and then they are disappointed.

For example, let us take the Home 500 plans. The speed specified is 256kbps to 2 mbps. People believe that they will get 2 mbps and expect 2 mbps. But the web site clearly states that 256 kbps is the minimum guaranteed speed and anything from 256 kbps to 2 mbps will be provided. Naturally when people get less that 2 mbps, they start shouting that BSNL is fooling them.

The second assumption people make is that the promised speed is the real intenet speed. But BSNL clearly states that the speed is within BSNL network.

And, it is not just BSNL that is doing this - all ISP's have mentioned the same fine print in their terms and conditions.

Going back to the main topic.

No. Try whatever, you cannot get double speeds by connecting two computers, triple by three computers, and so on. The internet is a gateway, a pipe, a door with a limited breadth/diameter. Imagine that there is a door connecting two rooms, that allows only 4 people to pass thru in one second. Then it will take 4 people one second to cross the rooms. If there are eight people, it will take 2 seconds, and so on.

Bottomline: Bandwidth will be shared by all concurrent connections.

@just4kix

No literally bsnl does not fool people. wat i mean here is that say for example you download from 1 am to 3am , normally the data usage upto 2 am only should be subtracted from free usage but it does'nt work that way with bsnl.

So we are being taken for a ride if we are none the wiser to disconnect at 2 am.

so i was only charged for the extra mins

luck you ! saves a lot of trouble. For me the billing problem happens both ways.

Like today i did not disconnect the internet after the 8 am and now i find data downloaded untill 8:20 was considered as free usage...

just4kix @ if u didnt have any problems with bsnl broadband ,that doesnt mean that others r not having problem

there r lot of people who had rough times with bsnl including me
and also most of us were wrongly billed for the free usage as we forgot to connect after 2am or forgot to disconnect before 8 am

if 500 plan users r getting around 2mb speed during night ul,then everyone shud get the same speed,but sadly 50% people getting 1.7m to 2mb speed and rest 50 % people r not even getting above 1 mb speeds

whats the use of night ul,if bsnl cant provide decent speeds during that time,? i mean whole day they provide me with 2 mb speed and just during night ul the speed goes lower than 1 mb

we are all paying the same amt of money,why different speeds for different customers

and dont forget the contention ratio,50:1

they r just abusing the dsl technology

that is less servers more new connection

i am using bsnl broadband for more than 2 1/2 years , i think this year was pathetic ,from service to customer care
