Default Railwire User Feedback?

Railwire is now giving connections in my apartment complex. I am planning their 2Mbps unlimited (1220 per months). Can anyone give feedback on their services. Do we get good speeds? Do they have some kinda of bandwidth throttling or p2p blocking? (And finally any fair usage policy which is not mentioned?)

thanks Pri & Admin: yes i know the price is very good. I am currently on Airtel Turbo1299, and a comparative Airtel ones costs 2999 (2mbps unlimited).

Pri: some additional questions
any impact on torrents/throttling?
do you get a static or a dynamic IP?
any disruptions in connection?

it doesnt limit the transmission i havent faced any problem with torrent.
we get dynamic Ip for static IP u need to pay extra and need to put a request thats what the customer care guy told me.

oh missed one well if you are in CV Raman nagar the local service provider has some issues that has nothing to do with railwire support station. But mostly they are sorted out in 10-20 minutes or even less time.

I will suggest that take the Railwire connection. Keep the Airtel connection also. Test both for a couple of months before giving up on either. It may work slightly expensive but at least you would test the goods first.
