Hi, what is the installation charges and how bsnl provide this to individual

[rajujayaraman]

Hi, I have applied for the air fibre basic plan, in the website and got reference id . I was told that they will contact me. This is the only information aside from information on plan tariff page of the bsnl.
I opted for plan 499, which is enough , as a back up internet access in case my telephone bb connection gets disconnected .
I want to know, the installation charges for me from the bsnl
I was given to understand that Rs.500 per initial deposit.
what are all the other charges.
Do I need a separate modem, for this.
what are all the other charages.
As it is air connection through the satellite , shall I need any other instrument?
As I am new to this type of connection, please provide the details as any one could understand. Thanks

Additional information I gathered from contacting customer care is that the connection is given thro the antenna, which will be provided by the bsnl and roughly it costs about 2500 rs and there will be no need for any modem or router.
Is the information correct? Please confirm

Yes all the info you have is correct so far.

Please also note the further information.
I have applied for air fibre, but it is a fact, that the vendors are only interested in ffth connection, rather than the air fibre. This has to be seen by the government, who introduced this plan to improve net connection in rural areas.
If a village man, has all the instruments at hand in a separate building and getting the signal thro air fibre, than the village members get the internet for the whole of the village, by distributing the signal on a regular basis.
But for individual, no vendor is interested in this scheme, as his commission and time of getting the same after investment, makes him to think, if he wanted to invest, in air fibre.
The golden opportunity would be wasted if these issues are not resolved for success of the scheme.
Individual connections by state player would be much more fruitful in this scheme rather than leave it to vendors.
the vendors are interested in optic fibre cable connection, which gives user the extra speed required for download and upload.

In my area (Jaipur) BSNL fiber charge ₹500 for installation and ₹2000 security deposit for ONT. I used my own router so haven’t gave any security deposit.
