Chaitanya. I guess it wont be constant speed. It is burst for few seconds. Technically on 4096 downstream rate it is not possible.

Shashank. If downstream rate set to higher than 4096. Pure 4 mbps can be achievable.

For a data rate higher than 4096,we gotta wait until reliance launches some >4 mbps plan Just upgrade to the >4 mbps plan and downgrade 2 days later to Thunder 1099 AFAIK,they don't downgrade the data rate back to 4096 after it is set for >4 mbps connection.

right now only 999/month 12 mbps plan left but that for only metro customers

I read it here only that someone complained about not getting proper 4 mbps speed and his download datastream set higher than 4096.

I spoke with the local technician and he told me that he'll bring up this issue with his seniors.

Meanwhile, I downgraded to the 'Thunder 699' tariff plan just to test it. I'm getting full 2 Mbps speed on this tariff plan (as the downstream line rate is set to 4096 Kbps). So, it's clear: it's a line rate issue and to be able to achieve full 4 Mbps speed on the 'Thunder 1099' tariff plan, the downstream line rate needs to be set some somewhere above 5+ Mbps.

This 2 Mbps tariff plan is OK for downloading and browsing, however I'm unable to stream YouTube 720p videos. That's a deal breaker. So, I'll again go back to the 4 Mbps tariff plan in a couple of days.

Also, RCOM is offering upload speed = download speed on MEN. So, why aren't they offering it to ADSL subscribers as well? Why do we have to suffer? What's the max upload speed possible on ADSL2+?

TO everyone who's reading this post: Who all are using this 'Thunder 1099' tariff plan on ADSL? Are you getting full 4 Mbps download speed? Please speak up.

In practice, adsl2+ can achieve around 900kbps upstream. The theoritical max is a tad bit higher

Chaitanya. I havent seen 350+ on my 4 mbps plan. They are still checking dlc and might upgrade the bandwidth.Regarding upload. What x720 said is true. And my line max attainable upload rate showing is 1400 kbps. So max to max 1 mbps is possible on adsl.
