Thread: What do you Recommend??

I need to use a broadband/net for december & january(2 months) in Bangalore(Peenya)..
1)I want to have an unlimited data usage plan(no FUP's)...I also don't mind any night unlimited data usage plans....
2)connection speed should be minimum 512kbps...
So what broadband/net connection should I take??
pls recommend..also tell me the rates for installation,etc..

You can try BSNL

Promotional scheme allowing 15 days Unlimited Free Download and waiver of Installation charges to the new customers registering their Broadband Connection during the period 15.09.2010 to 15.11.2010 in all Circles

Official link : Promotional Offer

Opt for UL 750. It is a 512 Kbps unlimited plan with monthly rent Rs. 750 and no FUP.

Here is the list of plans and tariff from BSNL

Bharat Sanchar Nigam Ltd.

For that I need a BSNL landline connection...right??
Won't it take time to get it??

Also what about BSNL 3G card??

I think initial cost is high for a 3G data card. If you have a 3G mobile, you can use it as modem and connect to internet. That will be a better option if you need it only for 2 months.

What will be the initial cost of getting a BSNL Broadband connection(No landline available)??

this connection is free, if u choose the right plan. pay special attention to the "+" or "C" after each plan name, with BSNL.

i think u need only pay a little deposit, like one month's rent.
The unlimited plans start from 499 onwards.

however, u need to know that this process is a bit time consuming. It took 4 months since i applied for them to give me a connection. It was on a new landline.
I subscribe to the 750ULC plan. so landline rental is free. calls to BSNL phones are also free (not listed as a feature, but shows up as a discount on my bill).

thanx for the warning..taking a landline connection and then disconnecting within 2 months is also not such a good option..

by the way I have decided to go for BSNL 3G Datacard..won't mind using it for another 4 months(total 6 months)..
6 months unlimited - Rs.4200
Data card - Rs.2000
the festival offer sounds excellent...

by the way what are the speeds I can expect???

Also is there any FUP's for the unlimited net??
