Expectations and Feedback for Hayai Broadband

[mgcarley]

aha.. i get it now..

... and btw what does it mean? do they peer with youtube or something else?


They have a cache. They must be sending/receiving at least 100mbit/s to/from Youtube.

Now i will support fup purely in this case.
i have been getting these speeds from last 3 months.....even after crossing the FUP limit. I downloaded some 700gbs last month.
the only downside of these new plans is the FUP limit, they have cut down the fup limit. But it doesnt matter, until they figure out how to limit the bandwidth after crossing FUP limit.

Wtf? 700Gb in a month? that too a residential user?

so vikkymath was you...

Their record for one user in one month is 548GB - turns out he was a massive pirate burning DVDs for sale, so as a result of this, it is entirely possible that our bandwidth consumption estimates are too high

This reminds me of my friend, who downloads 600 odd Gb's of pirated Games and Movies and Tv shows and distribute them for free.

One doubt tat is always in my mind, how downloading a hundred's Gb's matter when u buy the bandwidth in bulk.. they wont sell per Gb right? so ??

I thought hayai would only provide me an Fastest internet Connection, Unfortunately Beam Fiber Does that for me now!! But surely looking forward at "DATA PLANS" of Hayai in hyderabad.
Why unfortunately?

It's this kind of abuse that we'd be concerned about on most of our flat-rate plans - probably except the 100 and 200mbit/s ones.

They don't, but that's the easiest way for us to break it down. If we were to sell the kind of speeds we're looking at then the prices would be rather unreasonable, otherwise the marketing gets very difficult with all this "up to XXX" malarchy - we might only guarantee you 1mbit/s but sometimes it'll go up to 5 or whatever.

It might be possible that if you saturated BSNL's 100mbit/s connection (which costs 83k + tax) for most of the day that they'd still make a small profit at the prices they must be getting bandwidth. We wouldn't. Yet.

Hey there guys.. now that the launch is just round the corner, I'd suggest people who get connections post reviews in this thread. That'll ensure the reviews could be found at one place, instead of needing to go through all of the threads.
