Exactly, so a 256 wont be a 256. Besides the Cable wallah gives a shared connection so his 256 is worse off than the ASDL and the others.
To provide a cost effective service - all ADSL services are ‘contended’ (shared). These contention ratios are applied in the backbone and international part of the network. A commonly applied contention rate is 50 : 1. All customers are guaranteed the “plan” rate up to the local exchange or the ADSL equipment to which they are connected. On the shared part of the network a 50:1 contention ratio would mean that a 256k connection would be shared by 49 others. In reality this is very unlikely to happen and the customer would find the connection much faster than dial-up modems. ADSL relies on individual users not making unreasonable traffic demands on the network to provide fast access speeds for all. If you are not getting the speed you expect, it can be due to the contention ratio but also to many other factors including the congestion at the remote site you are accessing.

Somjit, this is exactly what my fear was, its the congesation which has slowed my connection it seems.Let me see what BSNL does for it.
