Thread: Internet connection too slow!

as said, internet conection is very slow; wat about u all folks is it fine; with ur browsing speed (typically downloading ) mine too slow even for downloading a 2MB file i need around half a hour) :yawn: is the problem with the BSNL or the otherway around.

I am on a tataindicom wimax connection and browsing was very very slow this evening but right now its back to normal.. I suppose it might have been an issue with som international link.

Any one else experiencing speed problems today?

It was/is not a dns issue as I tried a few differen ones. With my connection all the sites hosted within India were working fine but any international sites would take ages to load.

average experience with bsnl today. slow browsing from evening onwards. gets better after 2.00am. mine is a typical dns problem. cant use open dns, doesnt work for me (dont know why).

undersea cables got cut in Mediterranean sea

it may take 10 days to restore fully,right now the traffice is routed thru usa

Asian countries got effected including india

yes, the speed is terribly slow....

cant use open dns, doesnt work for me (dont know why).

if not, are u using the one provided by bsnl?

I am using Sify .... the speed was slow for a while [half of what i normally get]

But now i am getting 95% speed . But that may be because many people dont use Net at this hour and so there is not much load from india .

the reason could be this

Three Undersea Cables Cut in Mediterranean
Three major submarine fiber optic cables were cut in short succession: "Sea Me We 4" at 7:28am, "Sea Me We3" at 7:33am and FLAG at 8:06am CET. France Telecom said the causes of the cut, which is located in the Mediterranean between Sicily and Tunisia, on sections linking Sicily to Egypt, remain unclear.

France Teleco said most of business-to-business traffic between Europe and Asia has been rerouted through the USA.

Traffic from Europe to Algeria and Tunisia is not affected, but traffic from Europe to the Near East and Asia is interrupted to a greater or lesser extent . France Telecom estimated the following impact on the voice traffic (in percentage of out of service capacity):

Saudi Arabia: 55% out of service
Djibouti: 71% out of service
Egypt: 52% out of service
United Arab Emirates: 68% out of service
India: 82% out of service
Lebanon: 16% out of service
Malaysia: 42% out of service
Maldives: 100% out of service
Pakistan: 51% out of service
Qatar: 73% out of service
Syria: 36% out of service
Taiwan: 39% out of service
Yemen: 38% out of service
Zambia: 62% out of service

France Telecom has issued mobilization orders to two cable repair ships. Priority will be given to the recovery of the Sea Me We4 cable, then on the Sea Me We3. By December 25th, Sea Me We4 could be operating. By December 31st, the situation should be back to normal.

*BSNL BROADBAND SPEED TESTER*



Your IP Address: 117.195.2.29

Your Current Bandwidth Reading: 45.70kbps
(Download Rate at 5.71 KB/sec)

28.8 kbps dial-up
33.6 kbps dial-up
*45.7 kbps* *YOUR SPEED*
53.3 kbps dial-up
56 kbps ISDN
128 kbps ISDN
256 kbps BROADBAND
384 kbps DSL
768 kbps DSL
1000 kbps DSL
1500 kbps DSL/T1/Cable Modem

I think BSNL speed problem is increasing day by day specially in night unlimited times in October i hardly get 80-120kbps(Home 500 plan)in night that time i contact lot of BSNL employ they also agree that speed problem is increasing during night they says user are increasing gradually that the main reason for the slow speed in night.I think BSNL have to upgrade their server immediately otherwise this problem will increase more and more

why the cut of undesea cutting of cables occur every now and then? Is also a form of economic terrorism?

My Broadband speed is really slow. So I checked at DataOne.in and it says 237 KBps and Speedtest.net says 6 KBps.

Hiii

If you had read other posts, u would have learnt that some of the undersea cables carrying net communcations have been truncated.

There's every possiblity that your connection may become alright in abt a 2 weeks, coz we all are also having the same problem. I suggest that you wait patiently coz this's BSNL were dealing with anyway.

In my experience the emails have never been answered....

r u kidding me !!!!!
here people dont even bother to look at u even if u go to them with ur troubles, and u are insisting on using email. Email will never work buddy.
just wait like Newprouser said and if things dont get better eventually, then go to the local office urself.
