BSNL FTTH flyers sent by email to Bangalore Broadband Users

@madhusudhan7

As of now, there are only 7 ftth users in gurgaon. Out of that 5 of them are in my society. The remaining 2 conections belong to bsnl. I did ask the ftth guy about independent houses, he told me that, they would lay fiber to independent houses only if there was a strong demand for ftth in the neighbourhood.

What...only 7 ftth users :eek:!!! Gurgaon is a quite a big place as per as my knowhow. If this is the 'halat' in the metros what will happen to other parts of the country.
How the hell will they profit.....!!!

Looks like BSNL is also on a wait and watch for National BB Plan........NBP when are you are coming:Boy Surrender:
 
hello i m using home 500combo.I m getting noise in the background i m telling area sde to do it he told me there is cable fault.They are actually searching for fault it seems.Is it that difficult to locate cable fault??? they was some road work for 2 months BBMP have cut the cable N number of times.or if i SCREW lineman properly will he do some stupid things to my account?? Because i m using a limited plan..i mean exceeding my bill blah blah.......:1huh (2):no probem in broadband getting 224KB download speed .BUT speedtest shows 2.5Mbps lol:biggrin:
 
Not sure what you mean by quite. But, they certainly won't be able to profit with their absurd plans, 725 for 256 k ultd and 1999 for 1 mbps. Couple that with bsnl's reputation. I doubt there will be large scale adoption of ftth(residential) anytime soon, if at all.As for the other guy, create a seperate thread for that.Edit - it seems bsnl is shifting everyone from copper to fiber in my colony ( 1500 + apartments) of which 60-70 % are on bsnl.

oh i forgot to write 'a big', edited that post.

Their absurd FTTH plans definitely need to be changed, the present plans are simply senseless.

BTW are BSNL people shifting them on a free of cost basis or are they charging some nominal amount?
Shifting everyone to ftth on a pan India basis might be a good option but the costs associated are too mammoth. It will make sense only when the cost of DSL will equal FTTH.
 
@ devx101 What is national broadband plan ? Who is framing it ? Please give more details. Thanks.
 
Nice. Thanks for the link.

I also read that government has plans to provide 3G at subsided rates in limited no.s per rural exchange. Just like rural plans. But this will be done by private operators who are willing to make use of government subsidy. Hope they will do it soon.
 
@devx101As of now, they have installed fiber in every apartment, they have yet to start services on fiber for others. I doubt they will charge a nominal fee because the ont itself costs around 3k, and I doubt that everyone would pay that much just to shift from copper to fiber.
