so, d00by, whats the scene like with 999plan? what speeds,etc? any downsides?

My plan was changed to 999 this afternoon. I am getting 30k+ speeds which is like thrice the speed I was getting in unlimited 725. :)

I hope the speed goes to 50+ during night.

I think if one is a heavy downloader, unlimited 725 plan is absolutely useless. 999 plan is the best. the 1999 plan is too expensive.

I guess I will stick with this 999 plan. I am keeping my fingers crossed for 50+ speeds at night.

Since I love to download the latest American TV shows, I can't do without speeds less than 30k...

Wish me luck! :thumbsup:
 
yes d000by, i wish lots of luck to you :) do tell me how much total (all inclusive) you have to pay for 999plan... also please advice me as to which plan would suit me, i dont download much but i need atleast 3GB a month. is there any plan around 550Rs suitable for me?

I guess I will have to pay minimum of 1100 which is a little expensive, but I can't do without speeds less than 30K so I guess it is a necessary evil.

As for a plan for you, 550 is a good plan except that it has 500 MB limit which is not all that great.

If you do not download much why do you need 3 GB? Is it for video conferencing and internet telephony and stuff? :confused:

These are for delhi area.
super value 444 it has 25 hours free usage with 50 minutes free. I am not sure what the modem and CLI charge is.

Talk to customer care. Ask them if you can get night time unlimited download with any of the above packages.

havng said that, there ain't no such thing as a free lunch.

3 GB at around 550 a month is going to be tricky, IMHO. :ashamed::ashamed:

My advice to you is to go to nearest airtel broadband office and talk to them directly.
 
well, i mean i do heavy browsing...daily...so wont that amount to ~3GB a month? what do you suggest for a heavy browser?
 
Yeah, I have the 999 plan from months now n it just ROCKS...I get ~30kbps download speed in day and ~45 in night..
