Just got MTNL Triband

[sanke1]

attainable speed depends on modulation type u selectedcrazysah seems like company's own representative while i m not :rofl:

@amish
Dude ,You gotta do what it takes to find out what u can get max.
I mean in ideal conditions with zero interference if u can peak out at a certain figure...........thats what u can hope for at best
or atleast fight with MTNL saying its THAT MUCH below 2048kbps

 

[amish]

i get 212 KB/s.. thats almost what others get as well. attainble rate is what i can get if exchange provides the speed. but then they have synced me to 2048, so i am not going to get more than that. what wud i achieve just by searching for what my modem can achieve?

 

[cyberwiz]

They can even restrict the speed using other means..i am synced at 2048 kbps but managing a max of 390 kbps even on MTNL's test site

 

[amish]

hmmm..mostly its problem at ur end. or ur server is too loaded with internet surfers.

 

[cyberwiz]

No its not that there are other ppl getting full speed from same exchange/gateway/BRAS

 

[boygr8]

Yes when I got connection 6 months ago(590NU), they synced me at 512 kbps. But they have a software limitation of speed as well so I was getting 32 KBps only.

@cyberwizif others are getting speed then why dont u?i dont think they will specifically target u and restrict ur speed.

 

[cyberwiz]

@amish i am smart enuff to know that problem is not at my end and as far as MTNL is concerned dont generalise...my speeds have been restricted in the past atleast 2 times every month..and i was sick and tired of complaining..why it doesnt happen in mumbai or other exchanges of delhi ..i dont know..

i dont think they will specifically target u and restrict ur speed.

I visited MTNL exchange for getting some work done last year and had to go to room that housed DSLAMS, I noticed on their screens that most of the settings "could be" done manually thru a web page.

E.g. If a subscriber was on DSL NU, Web App still allowed sync rates other then 256 kbps. Ideally this should be defined based ONLY on package/plan.

My guess is, their router settings might be "manual".

And it could simply mean a human error to enter a wrong value somewhere.
