Please tell the transfer rate which I would be getting (in kbps) during uploading.
Also tell me plans available with pricing. Thanks !
However I could not locate you in mine area, but still hope for best.

Please use a bandwidth calculator to work out how many kbyte/s you will get while uploading at 50mbit/s - or simply divide 50,000 by 8. We are not yet in Delhi, or even Mumbai for that matter. Delhi is a complicated one simply because the region is spread over 3 states/circles, but otherwise the launch is being delayed by me only.

Ok. I am from Ahmedabad only. It's one of eight metropolitan cities in India and is at par or above Pune.

Now, I need this much speed to upload youtube videos. Reason is that I can't wait 40 minutes to see 100 mb video being uploaded. I need speed that would do this job in 10 minutes I guess.

Bharat Sanchar Nigam Ltd. can anyone confirm that the plan listed provide same upload and download speed.

The only problem with Ahmedabad is that it's not in Maharashtra. This is the main reason we would go to Pune first, however, Ahmedabad is scheduled to be early on the list after the initial launch because of the favourable cost to deploy the service and general lack of competition in the area.

FTR, 100mbytes in 10 minutes is only about 1.5mbit/s. In theory you should be able to to it in ~16 seconds, but in my experience, it won't go that fast (Youtube problem, not ours - I even tried it at our NOC - though this was in January when there were some issues with India-US routing, so...)

Sorry I live from away from BSNL Exchange, so I guess I would not be able to get FFTH connection. So will try to upgrade to UL 1400 or 1700 I guess now.

Consumer FTTH equipment generally has a range of 10 or 20km. Compare this to ADSL's 5km range and ADSL2+ 1.5km range. Fiber is better in every way compared to copper: speed, range, price-performance: you name it.

Its worth Rs. 3000 so if it is not, then BSNL will be hammered LOL

Rs3k is more than enough for 300Gbytes of data, especially at the rates BSNL must get. Even if they pay as much as 50% what we do, at the equivalent of Rs5/GB, theres still Rs1,500 left over for cabling, maintenance, equipment and a profit margin.
 
Spidigo is HQ'd in Mumbai but he's talking about BSNL so he's not in Mumbai... Are you (as I imagine based on your other posts in my threads) in Ahmedabad?

Completely off topic, but Spidigo management are in Mumbai, but operations are only in Ahmedabad. Heard they have done really well there.
 
Hi,I am in Kolkata.I am currently on Airtel 2 mbps "so-called" unlimited plan. Fair Usage Policy is 100GB.I pay around rs 2222 per month.My download speed in 2 mbps ( i.e 220-240 Kbps when downloading) upto 100 GB and then down to 1 mbps.But my upload speed is pathetic to say the least: 300kbps max.Please suggest me a broadband plan which will provide me download speed >= 2mbps (for complete month, no down-gradation) and upload speed >=1mbps with atleast a 200 GB downloading cap per month (the higher the downloading cap or no cap the better)?? What are their charges? anything below 5k per month?Is there any such plan available in India? Pleas reply..i am all at sea..have been doing my R&D for over a month now but stil no go :(Please help
 
on a 2mbps connection, airtel should provide upload speeds of 1mbps!
No their field engineer says they do not guarantee any upload speed..it can be anything between 0 to 1mbps. :(.. what kind of reply was that?
 
well officially they do not specify any upload speed rating with their packages. but upload speeds are generally always similar to download speeds at least till 1mbps.

True..in the case of Airtel,.. upload speed is constant 256kbps for all the connections till 1 mbps..and around 350kbps for a 2mbps line..that is what i have found out ..
Is there any plan offered by anyone which suffices my criteria ??
I only see Tata Indicom's Infinity 2.5 Mbps PLUS come somewhat near to what i am looking for.
 
The 2mbps reliance wireline plan should fulfill those criteria. The Indian consumer continues to be taken for granted. To even say such a stupid line such as "do not guarantee any upload speed" shows the attitude companies here have towards their customers.
 
you are missing a very important bit here. internationally, upload speeds are usually awfully low compared to download speeds. i would mgc to give some data on that. he usually has a lot on everything :D
