Here many of the folks are on MTNL triband connection, whether it be Mumbai or Delhi. Most of you may be on the NU plans or the 256 kbps UL plans or whatever. But as most of you are aware, MTNL has many a times given speeds of 2 Mbps to us irrespective of the plan. So how long did you get / have been getting the speeds of 2 Mbps on your plan (considering your plan is not the 2Mbps one) ?? :ohyeah: :ohyeah:
 
tats only if u are on a 2mbps plan and u change to some other plan which is not having 2mbps speed, like T199 plan to 256UL

i.e for initial period , ( I Got 20 days) 2mbps speed on 256kbps UL plan change.
 
i pay for 256 plan and i get 2mbps speeds too

i guess this the problem with their server or something...

but if my net goes down ... i have to wait for someone to come and fix it

cuz if i complain they might pull the speeds back to 256kbps

who'll take the risk :P

and yes i ve been gettin this speed since 4-5 mnths
 
Same thing i have noticed that people dont complain much if the net goes down..hehe..lest the babus find the speed goofup :)
 
never had it except the 20 odd days mtnl had made all plans 2mbps...
mine had become too...then got back to normal really quick...

but at that time everyone got a 2mbps for those few days afaik...
 
Me too.

Switched from 849NU to 512UL.Ended up getting 2MbpsUL at 1.8k.Only regret is that I should have tried out 256UL,might have saved 800 bucks a month but at this price I'm nowhere close to complaining :-)
 
I am planning to shift from 590NU.
I get about 25-28KBps downloads. :P
Don't download much but tried downloading a game from steam and it sucks.
Manage only some MBs a night i think, and it's already time to switch off. :rofl:
want to play TF2 too.

Should i opt for 849NU or 256UL?
That's the max i can afford for now, after accounting for the rentals and taxes. :ashamed:
 
^^256 is what works if you dont intend to dl heavily but wanna use the net unfettered whenever you want to.

The 1.25gig limit on the NU plan is pants imo

I had the same thing. :D

OT - Typo in your signature area. XD

226bw - 22" :P
 
sorry for reviving this thread....

but my 2 mbps unlimited went on for 6 months.

it just got back to 256kbps day before yesterday. i wish it would remain that fast forever!

but its ok. it was good while it lasted.
 
Mine lasted only for a month. After a stupid cable cut in our area my speed reduced to 256Kbps. What an amazing one month of unlimited 2Mbps line speed. I think that is a standard speed that India's broadband needs to start from & it should be affordable as well. :)
 
plz help me guys..i too experienced this speed boost but for only a few days time some time ago..n now i m on the 400MB data limit plan (i use airtel unlimited connection)and i m planning to migrate to the 256 unlimited plan expecting the speed boost for as long as it lasts....is dere ne particular time of the month i shud request the migration like last day,2nd last day or way before it to get the speed boost for a long time...or is it all " ALLA BHAROSE " ?

plz help
 
no pumped speeds but i enjoyed unlimited 2mbps more than a year. much b4 any unlimited plans for triband was released.

sigh! those days! i wish they could come back :(
