How is Airtel Blocking Even https:// Sites?

[Karan]

That is very helpful to curb my anger and frustration everytime I read that shit! I much rather not end up breaking my monitor. In any case I can always look in the adblock to verify if it is indeed the block page or if the webpage is blank.

Also on that page airtel has ads for their Wynk service as well, that is doubly frustrating! Here is a block for you, while you are at it enjoy some more useless shit from our side that you couldn't otherwise care less about.

Quoting the last post is pointless, your reply is directly beneath it, it is implied that you are replying to the last post, if not, you quote the other post or direct the message at the poster.

i do not like when a thread has every post quoting the previous post. it adds useless clutter to the page (this forum already is pretty cluttered thanks to me ). i understand that sometimes you want to selectively quote from the latest (or first as the code change also removes it from the first post in the thread) post in the thread but that is a small sacrifice i decided to make to keep the threads free of unnecessary quotes.

Good that you have, that is how it should be! Down with the unnecessary quoting.

They only show that on mobile devices and you can selectively block the Wynk ads without blocking the whole iframe.

As for the usage check, you can see it on airtel or http://122.160.230.125:8080/gbod/

It just shows "Connecting" on both of the URLs for me :/

Hmmm... ok, these sites can at times simply not work. In my case the whole of last week it wasn't showing me anything either. The other places where you can check is the My Airtel app and on self care portal on airtel.in

@Karan Yes I can check the quota on the self help applications but I guess the direct URLs would've been much more helpful and easy had they been working.

It will start working automatically any day now.

If you are on android you can use this app to check as well, it pulls the data from one of the two links I had posted earlier. Home Broadband Usage - Android Apps on Google Play
