MTNL Slow Speed

[kapilg604]

Dead Friends,I have got a new connection from MTNL, it is damn slow as compared to previously used Airtel. Its Data Light and PC/USB light keeps on flickering. Any suugestions/thoughts are appreciated.Thanks

Flickering occurs because of the data transfer and is pretty much normal.....which plan you are on??? Also post your speed test results....we can take it on from there...

 

[superprash2003]

could be because of the slow dns servers.. try changing to open dns servers 208.67.222.22 and 208.67.220.220 .. That could increase your internet speed.. cause mtnl/bsnl dns servers are slow!!

HI,

I AM FACING AN EXTREME SLOW INTERNET CONNECTION SPEED. I HAVE BROADBAND SERVICES & THE SPEED IS WORST THAN DIAL UP SERVICES. I AM PAYING BILLS ON TIME. BUT WHY NOT INTERNET SPEED. I HAVE LODGED COMPLAINTS FOR IT MANY TIME, BUT NO NECESSARY ACTION HAS BEEN TAKEN PLACE.THEN I MAILED TO MTNL REGARDING THE SLOW SPEED ISSUE.

THEN I GOT A RESPONSE TO CONDUCT A SPEED TEST ON http://202.159.217.199:8080/mtnlPortal123/dsl/tester.jsp
WHICH I DID. THE TEST RESULTS OF 16TH SEPT ARE AS UNDER;
Internet connection speed results:
File Size: 1000KB
Time to Download: 75.46978000000001second(s)
Your Speed: 108.78Kbps

THEN TODAY I AGAIN CONDUCT THE SPEED TEST. & THE SPEED WHICH I AM GETTING IS AS UNDER;
Today is: Thu Sep 17 12:16:36 IST 2009
Internet connection speed results:
File Size: 1000KB
Time to Download: 133.12978second(so)
Your Speed: 61.66Kbps

THE SPEED FOR WHICH I AM PAYING IS 256KBPS. AND THE SPEED WHICH I AM GETTING
IS NOT THE HALF ALSO.

ALSO, WHEN I TODAY CALLED MTNL FOR THE SAME REASON, THEY TOLD ME TO FORCE DNS. THE DNS ADDRESS WHICH THE REPRESENTATIVE INFORMED ME ARE AS UNDER;
PRIMARY DNS: 202.159.219.229
SECONDARY DNS: 202.159.217.198

THE REPRESENTATIVE FROM MTNL TOLD ME THAT AFTER DOING THIS, THE SPEED WILL WORK FINE.
NOW AFTER FORCING DNS, I AGAIN CONDUCT SPEED TEST. AND THE SPEED WHICH I AM GETTING NOW IS AS UNDER;
Today is: Thu Sep 17 12:35:13 IST 2009
Internet connection speed results:
File Size: 1000KB
Time to Download: 168.63439second(s)
Your Speed: 48.68Kbps

WHEN I WAS CHECKING ON THIS FORUM, I CAME TO KNOW REGARDING THE FOLLOWING DNS SERVER ADDRESSES;

dns servers 208.67.222.22 and 208.67.220.220 ..

AFTER CHANGING THE DNS SERVER IP'S, I AGAIN CONDUCT THE SPEED TEST.
BUT STILL THE INTERNET SPEED IS SLOW
Time to Download: 120.07258000000001second(s)
Your Speed: 68.37Kbps

PLEASE TELL ME HOW TO IMPROVE THE INTERNET SPEED.

WAITING FOR YOUR POSITIVE RESPONSE.
