So Many Problems with MTNL

[sthaks]

I am having so many problems with MTNL and need someone's advice on what to do> 1. Frequent Disconnections: Constantly have to keep switching my meodem on and off2. Recently i checked my online billing and it was 590MB downloaded for 7 days.: This is impossible as I've been using IOL as well since MTNL is so unrelaible and ahve barely even used MTNL in the last 5 days3. Have written several complaint letters to MTNL about disconnections no response. Pl help with point 2 and point 1 in that order. Thanks ST

Call the local lineman and get the line fixed..Disconnections occur due to Line problems.check the splitter too.As far as my experience with MTNL goes they don't show any discrepancy in counting MB's.

Yes, MTNL is pretty consistent with bandwidth usage. Check if any spyware/trojan is constantly sending data from your computer. See how fast the ADSL light flickers when your internet connection is (supposedly) idle according to you. If it flickers a lot, then probably some software you are unaware of is sending data. Software and sites such as Google Talk's voice feature, Youtube (its derivatives ) etc hog bandwidth too. Try to recall what did you use internet for.

After taking the above into consideration there is also https://broadband.forum/mtnl-broadband/35404-mtnl-broadband-huge-discrepancy-actual-usage-usage-shown-mtnl-site/2/ where customers in Mumbai have noticed excess billing of MB's for the month of Oct which might get hopefully rectified soon
