Has to be!A 10 mbit shared between a hundred ppl would be slower than an individual's unshared 56k.

u think there are 100s of computers connected to the internet in a excise and taxation office? :P
 
This thread has only made one pertinent point as far as i can see, in the North using Airtle is not as good as it is in the south of India. I used to avg 30GB/month every month since last June when i started with them, it's dropped since, avg maybe 15-20GB now. It's me thats dropped, not airtel slowing, there isnt that much of a hurry to get stuff as there used to be.About the modem, they dont have any obligation to provide one that can port forward. If you want such a thing go get your own.
 
I was abt to buy a D-Link 502T for my new airtel connection but then i discovered that they don't charge any modem rental for the unlimited packages. I was under the impression that i would be saving 99 bucks every month. So i started pestering them to give me a Dlink instead of beetel and at the time of booking the sales guy told me that it was indeed possible but surprise surprise later he conveniently told me that it was not in stock. So i ended up with a 220BX just like everybody else but atleast i managed to open ports for the p2p apps and it's working fine with my Netgear wifi router too. So am not complaining as of now (been just 4 hrs since my conn was setup :P ).
 
Yeah .. I Agree 200 % with the topic starter...

Their got damn modems dont even have Port forwarding (atleast on the bloody 220bx)

Damn guyz , i download so much in a month , that these @$$3$ have cut down on the speed's that im being provided on a frikkin 256k connection...

the thread i opened earlier over here

i do not get more than bloody 8-10 KBps both while downnloadin n uploading in browsers/FTP Clients (believe me i tried dozens of those apps) maybe its possible that they have blocked my speeds in HTTP/FTP..

i get normal speeds in torrents,ircs,p2ps etc .. this cud be bcoz the idiot's possibly do not know how to block speeds on these platforms... lol !!

Well , the bottomline is that AIRTEL SUCKS !
 
First of all the 220BX does have port forwarding settings. Maybe urs has an older firmware or somethin. Ask them for a replacement.Secondly if ur getting 8-10kBps on a 256K line then u can lodge a complaint since they guarantee min 128k (16kBps) for a 256k connection.
