ISP without FUP

Excitel has unlimited data but I have read they call users when you download unusually high data like 5-10TB per month.
High data usage is considered commerical use so they can disconnect your internet.

Afaik, all consumer broadband have a limit 3000/3300/3333 GB. What's your use case?


  • For Unlimited Data plans, speed will reduce to 3 Mbps after 3300 GB data consumption.
Mentioned in T&C: https://www.tataplayfiber.co.in/broadband-plans/mumbai

I use pretty much all I can.

Yes thats correct forgot to mention but who even uses 3tb per month?

For the past two years I've averaged about 5.5TB a month. If I had more speed I'd use more.

I've been using a 40mbps plan from Airtel, so far they had not been implementing FUP, now they are. I had not changed the plan to 1 gbps because I didn't want the FUP. I need unlimited data more than I need maximum speed. Ideally both.

I sometimes I think what do people do with ultd FUPs?

Only solution: GET TWO CONNECTIONS.. from different companies... cause above 3300GB limit.. it becomes commercial usages... You know Business Enterprises.
Better yet, get multiple connection from the same provider on the same MAC-ID. And just change your PPPOE credentials once one hit the limits.

I use Alliance back home in Kolkata and I am on a no FUP plan. It is good as long as it works. Unfortunately their service has deteriorated so I may shift to something else.

How much downtime on average per month? What do you plan to shift to?

I was happy with Airtel until they started the FUP. Little downtime and generally constant speeds.

Couple of hours almost every other week. I do need to check the equipment once since there is some anecdotal evidence that the problem started after we changed the router and they installed the FTTH.
