One of the links is choking during peak usage.

Upgrade is already underway, hopefully it will be ready next week.

For Bangalore or whole india?

 

[TarunSingh]

I think even at - 32.2dBm my ONT was able to give me full speeds. Still, it's very low (almost at the point of dropping out) and you should complain to LCO about it. I think low download speed issue is separate.

Excitel changed the fibre wire and the speeds are back to normal. Power is now -25.4 dBm.

Saw this on the app. 6 month and 9 month plan seem to cost the same.

 

[igloo]

Becoz 6+3 month promo is on.

 

[varkey]

Yep, do these promos stay for long? Or is it only for a short period?

 

[Sushubh]

god i hate not having fiber plans in my area.

 

[Aakash Malhotra]

i hate my lco. dude is just not bringing fiber in our area. internet goes down when it rains, when there is a power cut, aghhh . hate it!!

 

[igloo]

Yep, do these promos stay for long? Or is it only for a short period?

Someone here only told its valid till 31st march.
Not sure but i renewed on my old promo plan only. 2k for 4months @ 100mbps.
Above plan were not showing when i renewed.

you can queue plans though so if you do not want to miss out on it... you can just order it. @varkey
