Thread: How can i know if i am accessing net through -a limited or unlimited plan ? without..

How can i know if i am accessing net through -- a limited or unlimited plan ? without knowing the bsnl id/password

I access net using my wi-fi laptop through connection owned by cousin.
how can i know if he has Limited (or) night unlimited (or) 750+ unlimited plan ?
--without knowing his BSNL password ?

(1) Can i know the plan by the speed ?
(a) using a speed test I got it as "download 233 kbps & upload 146 kbps"
(b) using speedTest.net without any tourent (..with Chennai as server)
Download : 0.27 mb/s
Upload : 0.24 mb/s
Ping : 96 ms
***NOTE these test conducted with laptop wireless connection. I feel LAN connected PC will show more speed.
(c) the DSL Router home page shows: downstream 2045/ upstream 808 Kbps
--- does this thing shows the actual speed of LAN connected net.

(2) Can I also get an ID from BSNL to know the account usage/type of account, etc.. ?
--- my brother might already have an ID/ password (which he does not reveal)

(3) Can I know the type of account by any other way ?
--- i know the wi-fi router id/pass (...admin/admin, user/user)

~ my brother keeps warning me "don't use net for long time, don't download anything we have limited connection" (..I feel it's not true)
~ I am sure it's not night unlimited plan because he does not use the net b/w 2-8

Sorry. I cannot encourage /help in your query

Better find out when the telephone
bill is received with usage details for November 2009. !
You may even loose the present facility!!
This month you monitor your usage in
your own laptop
with shaplus 1.3 bandwidth meter.

Would you please describe the use of this site ?

Also, it's not working in FF !

I'm from Hyderabad and I think that the site is available only for Hyderabad subscribers as of now. I am not sure about that and so please confirm it and correct me if I am wrong.
The site works only in IE for me. Tried Mozilla and Chrome but it didn't work in either. The existing user ID and password that we use for 'www.data.bsnl.in' doesn't work and we have to register for the site. We need customer ID from telephone bill for registration.
After you register, you will get a call from customer service saying registration is complete and account is active.
Then you can login the site and I found it very different from the earlier 'www.data.bsnl.in' site. In fact it is much better and very helpful. We can check bills, register complaints, view usages etc. Here are a few screenshots of the new site.
