Thnx 4 not faliing in d trap of 2Mbps trap of MTNL!
Trust me with 400kbps connection which I m using rightnow is at least twice faster than MTNL broadband.
This is due to least ping times which I m getting with my fivenet's fibre optic network.
2 Reasons for this-
1. MTNL's
DNS servers are overloaded, one may say switching to opendns is a better option;
OpenDNS - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
But friend, opendns is similar to
Google Chrome's policy which they had to remove because of controversies. Its like getting AIDS inspite of using all d necessary protection. Because someone's always watching u!
2. MTNL's copper wires are not capable of giving fast latency times; U will notice it when u play games on international servers. 20 Yrs old technology, still running in 2009, My goodness!
If u want practical example then b ready-
I may like you to meet you to my friend who's using Cablenet since last 3 yrs.
He's d one whos mom is working in Prabhadevi Telephone Exchange; but still she has refrained his son from using Triband.
Think if this is d case with an employee, then what a common man can do with MTNL??
I m telling this through personal experience; check my posts in yr 2008, i was foolishly writing great about MTNL triband, used to help users in troubleshooting; Actually I was doing duties of a MTNL babu who never got paid for d work he did!
Any clarifications regarding the issue? Critics are always welcome!
