Why the hell BSNL takes two steps back with every step forward , we are getting 1 mbps ul for 1800 from airtel already . Reading this topic I thought now 10 mbit will be affordable (read 3-4k) but fracking 3k for 1 mbit , stupid asshats at BSNL .

If 1mbps using FTTH costs 3k and same same with normal DSL costs ~1.6k, who the hell is going to buy this FTTH?!
I thought they will be offering Minimum 10mbps ultd connection costing around Rs.2k!
Now this is as usual a big disappointment from BSNL .

FTTH uses light to transmit signals. The bandwidth is potentially very huge [Gbps].
DSL uses the conventional copper cables and electiricity to transmit signals.

Every now or then ISP's in India come up with new technologies & advertise it innovatively to customers. But their charges are high as hell.. the reason they cite is last mile connectivity...
Why the hell they don't concentrate on making existing technology & implementation affordable...

By the time the tech is installed everywhere they'll lower the prices. Especially since the tariff is higher when compared to it competitors.
Beam cable that I have uses fibre to apt. They call it BONT.Beam Telecom -- Make The Right Connection

ADSL can support speeds upto 24mbps downloads and 3.5Upstream with some changes. if present Line conditions are taken into consideration, our present Bsnl Broadband connections can get support speed of 6-8mbps downloads and 2mbps uploads.
still we are stuck a such low speeds. in short, we aren't fully utilizing the capacity of provided by current tech
the new fibre technology is more useful only for stuff like VOIP and IPTV. internet would very costly due to high bandwidth costs in india.
Anyways, its a start! Hopefully prices will come down in near future as they did with broadband:hap2:

Nah, read the PDF: it says plans were decided by "the competent authority" you see.
Actually bandwidth costs have dropped rock bottom. 1 MB IVPN connections are down to about 80 K.
Fiber that they seem to be talking about generally costs quite a bit. Unlike regular copper links if a fiber is cut (believe me it happens very often), it costs quite a bit of to get it spliced once again.
I also doubt that penetration is going to happen quickly. Laying fiber to ones door step would mean a lot of digging.
