Thread: H1350 vs H500

Guys,

Right now i 'm on H500 Plan, and we have to wake up 2am to download n all. During Free time we can download aroung 4.5-5gb per day. Also the monthly download limit is 2.5gb, so i rarely use for surfing during the daytime.

I am thinking about 1350UL Plan, Yah Speed will be 512kbps, if i use for 20 hrs per day, i can download around 4-5gb per day.

Whats your opinion ?

First. You do not have to wake up at 2 AM every night to start your downloads. You can do the task scheduling and other automation as many of us do. I have written a guide on this - you can check it out and see for your self how easy it is.

Since you are not using much of your 2.5 GB limit, I guess that your major requirement is download only. You can switch to UL 1350 + plan and you will be able to download the whole day long but the cost will be much high:

- you will spend Rs. 1350 plus tax instead of Rs. 600 plus tax
- your computer will consume power for 20+ hours rather than 6+ hours. This is not a consideration if your computer remains ON through out the day anyway.

But on the other side, you will have a complete peace of mind and never have to worry about excess billing. So if you can afford it, go for it.

Actually my friend apply some settings mannually to my modem so that i can surf internet wireless, like LAN connection. Can i still apply your Guide ?

Yes bro...Rs 600 Extra Tax is toooo much. I ll stick with H500 only, Hope bsnl launch new 1mbps UL Plan in 2009:taz:.

you should stick with 500 plan only.

In my opinion if you have money then go for H1350+ plan its a complete peace of mind

My guide (posted in "Broadband How to" section) is a generic guide and can be used with any modem. Only one thing is assumed ... your modem must be configured in PPPoE mode.

It is possible to schduled dialer tasks also but then steps will be a bit different.
