Wow I just spoke to the city internet guy. They have 25mbs plans with 50gn fup, but their tariffs are insanely high. They are charging 2500 for this plan and 2500 for device installation which is non refundable :(
Anyways, I will give this a try and see how it is.
 
I have used the connection from these guys (G-Broadband) before.
I remembered, when you gave Mani's number.
They are a pain in the ass to deal with. My internet would be down for days and no one would pick my call.
Do, let me know how is G-Broadband serving you so far?
I was using Tikona, and I feel you should give that a try.
They have a 1499/- plan with 4mbps speed and NO FUP.
I was happy with it, the only reason why I got it disconnected was, due to a new building being constructed in my neighborhood, the signal strength got reduced and I faced frequest internet outages.
I am currently using BSNL, the speeds are consistent. But it's VERY laggy.
I have given up online gaming completely. :(
Tikona, used to give quite good pings on Asian and European servers.
 
Renegade now that you've been using G-Broadband for quite a while now just wanted to get your feedback and review on the same.
Also, how often and long do you face the outages?

Thanks
 
I have been using G broadband now for a little over a month. The maximum download speed I get for my 10Mbps connection is around 700kbps. It has never gone over this speed. In terms of uptimes, I have not yet had an issue with the connection per say. However, they have this switch and a media converter on the roof top that require power and this is an issue. First of all they use a very cheap quality plug to provide power the above mentioned devices. The quality is so poor that in a span of 2 weeks that plug snapped into 2 pieces.
I had a downtime of 2 days when this happened. I obviously called Mr Mani, who claimed that he would come and fix it in less than 30 mins. Neither him nor his techs came to fix it. I again called over and over again about 6 times and finally he sent a person to fix the plug.
The tech who came to fix it took an easy way out and he just plugged the 2 wires of the electricity cable to the power outlet, used an insulation tape to hold them in place and left.
Ofcourse after this the connection was back up and running but the poor quality of execution was major issue. The switch and the media convertor are lying on the terrace floor and I am sure if it rains heavily, the two devices are going to blow and maybe the maybe take the entire buildings power along with them.
Overall, this is a crappy ISP to have. They have no morals or ethics. They do have customer handling skills. No quality of service. I cant stay without an internet connection and hence have to put up with this garbage equivalent of a ISP.
 
Hi Guys, I have been following this thread for a while since I have to change ISP since Airtel doesn't have feasibility in JP Nagar 7th phase. From my research only wired bb is bsnl and WiFi max are Ticona and City in which I found City's plans better than Ticona and Bsnl. It has 10mbps for 999 and fun is 50gb and after fup it will be dropped to 4mbps.

Can you guys suggest about city broadband?
