Try with a friend having Airtel connection !
I will not disconnect DATAONE even though Ihave Airtel BB connection Rs 250/ 400MB modem rent Rs 99/-
Reason 1. 2Mbps translates to maximum 250KB/sec ( ideal conditions) for Rs 250/PM 1 GB
2. modem rent Rs 60 /pm
3. Check usage online with minimum backlog

My experience is BSNL is the best BroadBand service.

Your flattering remarks have encouraged me to go for BSNL and have also taken off my grief of not being able to get Airtel due to its unavailability in my area The only worry that I had regarding BSNL, on the quality and response time of its customer service due to its govt tag, has now gone away. Btw, is Type II modem (WiFi) good enuf to get wireless connectivity on laptop within the house? Any problems with that? Or a wireless router of one's own will be a better option?
