Exactly..... Thought so.

Only 128kbps users can get double speed at night.....not 256kbps....

Wrong... :bleh: :bleh: even AIRTEL 256 UL users get double speed during night.... I am an AIRTEL customer & speed's do double during night hrs... Though they don't exactly reach 512kbps but remain close to it with my torrent downloads....;)

On the topic.... I have not seen any speed bust or any speed down on my connection since last two days... its giving me same speed as it was a month ago... :mad: may be its just metroes they are checking & rest of India is on low priority... By the way I am in MP....:hap2:

well today i had this big convo on the help line coz my speed went down to 64 KPbs on a 256 kbps line . they were like that there are testing going on due to which am facing these low speeds and the same earthqauke reason again was given. though after yelling at them for a while they improved my speed then and there from their end to 170 - 180 kbps. so am downloading @ 17 - 18 now. God when will it be better .

^^ Home 999 users in Delhi also get double speeds at night including me. In day the speed hovers around 25-30 and at night between 50-60 KB. However off late the network is throttling aroung 20 KB during the day and around 45 KB during the night.... after the quake.
