atleast it doesnot have any downtime as i had problems with sify which i used before.

I really agree with U. It is slow but non stop.

And the less said about Sify the better.

i have a 350 Rs Bundle plan ( 350/- Per month, 1 GB "Data Trasfer"). Please note the " Data Transfer", though their brouchure says "Download" !. What this means is unlike any Broadband Internet across the Industry, Reliance insists on Calculating the Data Transfer ( Upload+Download) as Data Volume. Whereas any other service provider only calculates "download" ( total amount bits flowed from ISP to your PC/System measured in Kbps ). I find this surprising, as its not a industry practice. When I checked with their Customer care they say its Upload+Download.

This is not a problem if you are using broadband only Internet browing, but of late Broadband is being use for accessing Corp Mails, Uploading Video , Live Video Chats etc, which consume quite amount data Volume per month.

Vj

The best thing to do is take an Unlimited account. They will charge U a flat rate for the month. But it will NOT be that fast.

Hi,

Rel Broadnet is not slow. I get d/l speeds of 1.7 Mbps on average and upload of 300 kbps.
This will be considerably slower for unlimited plans.

But like I earlier. God help you if you have a problem have to interact with "Customer Care". For that you have to develop +ve attitude like cruisecontrol said in his post.

Reliance is the worst ISP (of course next to sify)
Never works

I am wondering

If it does not works do you guys still pay the complete bill or you all ask for a waver

Thumbs down dont even think of taking a reliance broadband connection...

it sucks...and it sucks big tym....

me changed my bsnl broadband to reliance only to find that they are pathetically slower....

i took a 75 kbps unlimited scheme and the promises are given that the speed is good...

the connectivity speed is 100 mbs....so the transfer rate should be somewhere near 70 to-75 kbps...my download speed does not even cross 10 kbps....it takes 15 to 20 min to download a 5mb file....

on the other hand you cant surf the net properly if you are downloading some thing...cause both...the loading of webpage and of the download as well is very slow when done together....

other the connection resets every 6 hours....moreover no dedicated ip...

my verdict...bsnl is much much much better

Pandya. Let me bring some things to light for you. the 100 Mbps that you see when the network gets connected is just the Max bandwidth that your network card can offer you on the CAT5 cable that's connected to your network card. It has nothing to do with the ISP.
Secondly you said that you had signed up for a 75Kbps connection. Note that its the small letter "b" mentioned in the plan. That's Kilo bits Per second (all ISPs measure speed this way) however when windows shows your download speed it will actually be in KBps (Notice the capital "B") which means its Kilo Bytes Per Second (8 Bits=1Byte) so if you divide 75Kbps by 8 you will get 9.37 KBps. Now you mentioned that you are getting 10 so I believe that's fair. You are getting what you paid for and have no reason to complain.
