Angry 2 Mbps dream only. not real!!

Hello,
i am BSNL DataOne Home 1000 User, (354 Kbps) in Nasik, Maharashtra. They say i have been upgraded to 2 mbps but my speed has deteriorated even further. I used to get a decent speed of 40-50 kbps any time during the day/night. Now i get only 4-15 kbps anytime, its only after 1 am in night does the speed increases to 20-40 levels.

i have complained with bsnl guys which they say that UL900 plans are suffering bad due to increase usage of other plans but the other plans(like mine) have been upgraded and there should be no problem. though there is lot of problem, if these guys are not able to give me 2mbps speed i at least get the minimum 354 kbps speed promised by them. its a shame that after a blockbuster year of 2006 with great speed (atleast till we didn't taste 2mbps) of 40-50 kbps i have to use net at a pathetic 5-15 kbps

Do any of you guys have same problem? any one from similar area? Do you think bsnl will get more broadband speed that they used to get for this particular area?

God help me!

I'm from Kolkata and having the same problem of slow download rate. I'm using home 500 plan. Previously I used to get 28-30 KB/Sec constant speed but now it's a dream, I generally get 8-15Kb/Sec and sometimes 100-200KB/Sec. but the maximum time the speed is low. Why is this happening I have no idea. I've complained to the BSNL but it didn't help me.

Well, do you think this is the reason for it? Check out the link. Though i did not find "India" among the list of the affected countries.

I agree with you.
Bsnl doesnt have any shortage of bandwidth.

30-40 kBps. And it is always stable.
Btw nightwolf2k5, it seems you were right. I'm getting good download speed from today morning again (150kBps+). Let's see this time it becomes stable or not.
