The main reason that I keep on checking different ISP's is that till date I could not get proper 4K streaming (other than youtube) on any ISP irrespective of speed 30/50/ 100Mbps..... so I have decided to stick to the lowest plan 20/ 30Mbps from most reliable ISP..... as well as keep looking for better service.
its because all these new local isps are focusing on quantity over quality. now that bandwidth prices have crashed its very easy to offer cheap 50/100 Mbps plans without fup.
they should focus on improving their quality of service which i doubt they will ever do coz who gives a fu*k when you are already making a profit as it is. moreover the layman janta is satisfied with their youtube and
google which works perfectly on these isps because of peering. outside this their network is slower than a snail.
prime example - excitel.
good for torrents, downloading in general, youtube, basic yada yada stuff. outside this their network is soo shit that i cant even stream a video in 720p let alone 1080p without buffering. a fu*king so called 100 Mbps connection incapable of streaming a 1080p video, forget 4k . what a joke.
their speed to international servers su*k balls. anything that is not peered is horse sh*t on excitel + the added packet loss , no static ip, speeds getting halfed on weekends etc.
these issues are just the tip of the iceberg because this is what i face. i am pretty sure there are lot more issues with this isp that i am not aware of.
airtel is probably the best isp in terms on quality. although they are costly af, i cant think of any isp that can match their stability.
i can guess that airtels 20 Mbps will be more than enough to stream 4k videos outside youtube.
