Don't think this would improve latency in any way.
Maybe 500Mbps for a better price? Who am I kidding it's Airtel.

5gbps 10gbps soon ?

 

[Lolita_Magnum]

Probably 2.5G instead.

possible

Next upgrade would be 10G equipment. So we can expect 500Mbps plans to be baseline, meant for majority with 1G for power users.

I only wish that they remove the 3.3TB data cap shit.

Do they implement it though? Doesn't seem so for me.

@Lolita_Magnum previously they charged 299 per 3tb... I think tht one still good.
