Aircel is truly UL here... that's what I found out. Downloaded about 600MB in Rs.14/3days plan. But the bandwidth I receive is low to about 15KBps.. during night 10pm-12am, browsing is torturous. Rest of the time also, it is slower and unpredictable compared to my vodafone GPRS connection.

All you mention is about theory and technicality..if you truly received >256kbps then that is better than broadband .. As far as I am concerned you are first person I have seen/heard who has this speed in gprs. Now what data do u dl on your phone that it reaches almost 6gb??

Read my post carefully, I mentioned that practically I received 256Kbps too. I download & seed torrents (of movies and sometimes linux distros) using my vodafone GPRS connection in my PC(sometimes in my phone using symtorrent).

----------

The average speed of torrents in vodafone was 25KBps and http,ftp downloads was 28-30KBps.

Well, i have seen people who download more than 2GB in a month.......... Huawei umg1831 : EDGE class 12 (237 kbps dl)... Uninor https://i.imgur.com/nkoGN.jpg vodafone https://i.imgur.com/k05rm.jpg Okay browsing, just for checking mails........

Be careful of IDM. It inflates speed. Just look at difference between the speed the connection manager shows and the speed IDM shows. In that picture:
IDM: 32KBps (256Kbps)
connection manager: 219Kbps(27KBps)

I had a similar experience with my 256Kbps BSNL broadband connection too. IDM was showing 35KBps(=280Kbps!) consistently, while task manager was showing 32KBps flat.
