Getting excitel installed soon, please tell good and bad things about it.

Day 13: LCO helped apply for the new connection, but the problem is that the new connection isn't available for 300mbps, it's only available in the promo wifi router plan... Both of us are dumbstruck... LCO promised to speak to the backend and resolve the issue and get back to me for fresh payment ... He also said that for the NON-promotional plan, I will have to pay 1000 rupees for the 1G ONU, I agreed ... and am now waiting for further instructions from my LCO....
 
You know just getting any other connection would be a much better option at this point?
While the ONU procurement is one thing, I am not sure you'd be ready for the real disappointment once the connection is up and running.
 
@Lolita_Magnum you make a very valid point, if this is the stuff in the beginning itself, only God knows whats in store later...

But the reason for me to get this connection was actually to do a trial run, to see how horrible it can get... I already have airtel xstream and another local connection as back up, I was getting this excitel because they are apparently the cheapest & fastest, so I wanted to to see if it's really worth it... So far it doesn't look like that..

I wanted to get the shortest duration plan and test drive it.. If it impresses me I will gladly make it my leech line, otherwise I will just terminate it and cut my losses...

I have already given it a few weeks, I am thinking I will give it just one more and see...
 


Basically a VPN where it pretends to not hide its IP, excitel usually has goof quality peering to Cloudflare due to strict IX and Cloudflare peering policies.
 
@Sushubh got warp plus and using with excitel, didnt help, pings are terrible, speed is deadly low, pages loading slow.
 
can't i just change the DNS on my router to 1.1.1.1 and get faster resolving ?
