1) Do they change the plan easily , or they will give me more hassle?
2) What is the upload speed I will get on 4mbps plan?
I basically want this plan for online gaming, my friend has the same plan where he gets 700-1000 kbps upload speed, am I gonna get the same upload speed on the 4mbps 1399 plan?
I am using the same Rs 1399 4mbps plan with 25GB FUP and I have never seen upload speed more than 350 kbps on this connection when uploading to servers in the USA. Average upload speed during the working day (10:00 AM to 5:30 PM) is never more than 240 kbps.
If someone is getting 1000 kbps upload speed on this plan, then I am interested in seeing the speedtest results from a server the USA because I am told by Airtel staff that they can not provide upload speed of more than 512 kbps on any of their plans because of the kind of network they have built. I am using Airtel's services since 2004 and have 3 connections right now and I have NEVER seen upload speed of more than 400 kbps on any Airtel connection in almost 8 years.
Once they added 8 mbps down/1 mbps up plans on their site and those plans were also withdrawn later on because they found out their network is too crappy to support those plans.
So yes, Airtel's network is designed for 1999 era and not 2011.
