I was on a 8mbps plan for more than a year. Since i moved to a new location the line men the prabhadevi dept. none were able to solve my issue of Slow Speed, i was only getting 2mbps for the price of 8mbps and they made me pay the whole bill as rebate would take more than 3 weeks and by then i would be up for another bill

I finally was able to get a new and better connection locally called Classic Net (High Speed Broadband Unlimited Internet in Jogeshwari | Andheri In Mumbai they are using a fiber connection and so i am getting speeds of 25mbps upload and download (yes upload too!) and am very happy that i moved on to a faster more new generation connection.

here is a Screenshot of what speed my line is able to give me right now.

MTNL even after having FTTH are not ready to sell it to their customers right now i am paying rs1350 for a 60gb of 25mbps and later 1mbps which is even lower than what i was paying to MTNL for 8mbps

That is really great to hear, though I doubt they would be serving in borivali. Another issue I may face I believe going for a fibre connection would be that my entire house wiring has been done with CAT6 cable and I am not sure about the speeds you achieve when you join the two of them. Any alternative solutions are welcome to. And thank you for the information.

^ cat6 is more than enough to carry gigabit speeds

Thanks. Can you also suggest some other internet providers in borivali with high speed internet plans ? Except for mtnl. Considering my line stats above can you also please suggest some modem with high speed wireless.

I switched from 2 mbps unlimited to 8 mbps with FUP of 45GB... I'm still unable to get 8 mbps speed. It's been 5 days now. Tried calling 1504 but no luck :speechless:

Here is a screenshot of my attenuation, SNR and downstream rate:

Line is pretty bad. Switch to 2-4 mbps. What speed are you getting?

This is what I got a while back:
Speedtest.net by Ookla - My Results


But it keeps fluctuating. Should I wait for a few days before switching to 2-4 mbps?
