New plans from Hathway Broadband

[chocos]

these plans were on a colored leaflet distributed door to dor. If your hathway exec doesn't confirm the plans let me know. i'll put the jpegs here

Please post the jpegs if you can. It'll be nice to have a reference copy online. I havent seen any leaflets yet, or I would have done it myself.

Okay I can confirm these plans exist (Subscribed today), and NO you don't have to pay for 3 months in advance. Plans are available in prepaid and postpaid options. The final amount including taxes for the Speedway 5 Mbps comes up to Rs. 1140 which is 50 bucks more than the previous plan I was on (13GB FUP, 256 kbps after)
With this plan at least I'll have 1 Mbps after the 25 GB FUP, not the best but hey beggars can't be choosers :numbness:

Hi, Alvord12,
Can you please confirm the UPLOAD speed that you get with this plan? And in general how is this plan? Do you really get 5mbps all the time? or it keeps on fluctuating between 512kbps - 5mbps as usual?
I called up hathway billing, they said 256kbps, then someone from mulund office told me it is 512kbps and then again someone from mulund office told me its is 600kbps. Nobody at hathway knows the actual UPLOAD speed.
So, if you could please confirm the same.
Thanks

Now its been 2 days since the activation of the above plan. But I m not getting 2.5 mbps speed during 12am-9am. Its constant on 512 kbps. I have called up to customer care executive and told him to fix this. Lets see what happens.
And that browser login of hathway is frustrating..It disconnects the internet after certain period of time may be if the PC is idle for certain hours. I dont know the exact timing.

Dahanukar colony, Kothrud.
It is worth the money if they provide the speed they promised ie. 2.5 mbps, else its useless. Lets see..I have registered a complaint regarding the issue.

1. Dude, I am from Mumbai and I have subscribed for the same plan in hathway as yours. I am getting speed of 2.5 mbps during 12am-9am. No problem with that. Maybe, you check the speed during that time at : https://www.speedtest.net/
2. You need to login to hathway every 12 hours. It's ridiculous! This may help you to avoid frequent logins (not developed by me): http://anilsoni85.blogspot.in/2012/03/auto-hathway-authentication.html

No, I m testing the speed after midnight only. Now its been 4 days, still no change. I have filed a complaint and they said our engg will get back to you. They are working on the problem. God knows when they are gonna succeed. I have taken this plan for the night speed that I m getting as I have not much usage during the day time. Thanks for that software though.
Do you have wifi at your place with hathway? I need to know which router I need to buy and what are the settings.
