Reliance Jio should upgrade their Fiber plans next month on their anniversary

[Dave]

Why is this allowed?

Simple answer - who's going to stop them?

Does anybody have any idea why jio is the only one tier 1 isp to cap the uploads. I mean does they have any specific reason to do so..

I can think of two reasons
1) Greed
2) They do it coz can & they can get away with it.

But low upload speed even for enterprise users doesn't make any sense.

This routing issue on Jio Fiber everyone talks about, is there any way to correct it or make it better at the consumer's end? Like anything I can do to reduce it's effect?

Aren't there any consumer protection law against this? I understand that they can do this but they should be at least forced to mention about the 1/10 upload cap on their website. That's a very important part they are leaving out.

Even if there are laws, they have to be implemented. A case in point is TRAI currently. In the past there were occasions when we could believe that they worked to also keep the consumers interests in mind. Now I am not so sure.

At a glance the title of this thread reminded me of the one on MTNL section where we discussed every 15 Aug, 26 Jan & other festive occasions whether MTNL would introduce new plans Atleast with MTNL there was some hope then of new plans as they used these special days to announce new plans, with Jio its anyone's guess

Of course they should be forced to mention everything since otherwise it amounts to fraud, but even if there are any laws, when has that ever stopped rich, powerful and avaricious people with friends in high places from flouting them (especially here)?

Of course. But, I didn't only meant average peeps like us should do something but the rival competitors as well. I always see Airtel, Idea-Vodafone and Jio taking jabs at each other for their plans on news. This hidden cap thing just seems like a very logical thing for rival ISPs especially Airtel to put forward against Jio. Maybe then, Jio will finally do something about it.

i think you forget airtel's track record and mentality...knowing them it's far more likely that they will follow suit and start capping upload speeds as well (they always did on copper so why not fiber)
