Min speed is 256 kbps under this plan and max you'll get is 2 mbps depending upon the exchange and line. May be 2 mbps or less than 2 mbps.

There are no such gurantees. A lot depends on your distance from BSNL exchange and of course the total bandwidth allocated to your area/city/circle.

For the record, I get about 1600 kb/seconds when I test with Dataone.in speedtest. Day or night. Other users get better speeds. It varies. Home 500 is still incredible value though, I have the same plan. :dance:

i have 500 c plan .. it is good value for money ...

I get only 1.4 Mbps speed. But no other broadband paln of any ISP in my area(Hyd) can match with this plan's Data capabilities Vs Cost. [ and in H500C plan Additionally we get 175 free calls without telephone rental]This is the best plan__________________Waiting for Railtel to spread its network to other cities

 

[superprash2003]

usually you get a constant 1.5-1.6mbps

 

[mramakrishnan]

upto means they don't gurantee a speed of 2mb/ps. But generally you can expect a speed of around 150 KB/ps to 200 KB/ps

Don't worry your download speed will be around 225KBps... Go for that plan.
