Yes - these plans are there for quite some time. But these people have not updated their website for a long time and you have to call & ask them for more plans. Even when promoting when they started in my area they promoted 64 kbps unlimited or 256 kbps limited only.
 
Hathway has been pretty decent. Torrents are not always as fast as i would like them to be but you can surf without a lag and do torrents at the same time which is something my old isp sucked at. FTP transfers have been pretty awesome. Get around 25 to 27 KBps.Got a 256Kbps Unlimited and i average out to 1 GB of download a Day.
 
512Kbps Blast Xtra(night unlimited:11pm-9am) 3367 7GB 6 Prepaidi have jus taken this plan.......i had tried the night unlimitd too..even that is better..i paid 440 for that...and its free whole sunday...but i do nee net at odd times...than converted to 256kbps whole day pla...bu it made me stick to pc....which is bad habit..so now on this plan....frm past 7 days.......have checked today is 7th day while posting.......so todays download not counted yet...and wht i have jotted on paper i have done 6.3gb jotted downloads..which means 900 mb daily......(2 days i have jotted above 1.3gb downloads)....so far goin gr8..which means ill download above 25gb which is good becoz using net on 256kbps i hardly passed that 20gb limit........also day time usage ard 115mb.....so goin good..i would say gr8 plan considering its prepaid...if u download xtra..if by any chance they say topay xtra u can say we wont pay since its prepaid......also i get good 50kBps speed on good torrents.......and ard 40kBps avg.......i wont regret that i shd get ard 55+...since something less is still better...... since we allways download illegal stuffs...and for speed u ask for legal speeds.......i would say if airtel is in your area get that...since airtel ppl get same upload speed..........and also on public holidays and night time they double the speed.....which never happens in hathway..also upload is half the download speed that too is not simulatneous........in short its a trade off plan
 
was thinking of getting hathway for my office use... the sales dudes came by today, offered me a 2mbps dedicated fibre optic connection (20gb data limit) for a cool Rs 20k a month... damn it's expensive!

I have decided to go for the below plan. Mailed the Hathway people requesting for a plan change
512Kbps Blast Quarterly(night unlimited:11pm-9am) 1684 3GB 3 Prepaid
No more crawling at 64 kbps. 512 kbps here I Come[/b]

hey dude ne idea whether dis plan is available in mumbai.......... you know na these people dont disclose their plans ......... y i dont know the reason .......
512Kbps Blast Quarterly(night unlimited:11pm-9am) 1684 3GB 3 Prepaid plz lemme know. thnx
 
Not sure about Mumbai. However , if you specifically ask about a plan , they will tell you about it. Here too they never advertised it, it was only on me asking specifically about such plans to the customer service rep that I got to know of these plans.
 
these packages are there in Mumbai too.i had taken the 3gb for 3 mths pack, finished it in 2 mths, so now gone for 7gb in 6 mths plan.great package. only problem is upload is slow. can't upload more than 54 mb per hour (ie around 15-16 Kbps) which is a problem if u r a star releaser on torrents :)

i would say if airtel is in your area get that...since airtel ppl get same upload speed..........and also on public holidays and night time they double the speed.....which never happens in hathway..also upload is half the download speed that too is not simulatneous........in short its a trade off plan[/b]
I would echo this as well, from reading posts here about Hathway, i would not recommend them at all, unless you are stuck with them being the only provider in your area.
