Would BSNL launch new plans to counter Reliance Jio Fiber Truly Unlimited Plans?

[Adithya]

Is there anyone we can spam to get new plans?

Don't shift the blame to LCO's, if they really can't handle higher speeds BSNL can atleast raise FUP. I don't like FUP anxiety.

Fup should be increased.It is better to take a plan with 30 mbps 3300gb rather than 100mbps 500gb.So isp should focus on fup rather than speed.

For me it's the other way around... I want higher speeds and don't care much about FUP increase. In my household monthly usage hardly crossing 200 gb

If fups are increased people will use higher speeds for longer times thereby straining on the lco devices , so even if bsnl increased fup without increasing speeds it can affect lco devices putting strain on them.

Man I thought switching to 500gb fiber from 150gb adsl would have fixed my anxiety. Didn't know 10mbps to 50mbps would've meant everyone's youtube streams auto selecting 1080p-4k in my household. Higher speeds will exhaust your FUP faster.

But how is it attained with higher speeds u can download more data per time which also increases data usages right, even a speeds test takes 200 mb on a 100mbps plans

That is flawed logic. There exists a point where everyone is under fup (at the start of the month for example). That goes fine without OLT's catching fire when everyone's using for the first 15-20 days.

I hope BSNL starts expanding its FTTH reach directly without LCO involvement. At least in areas where it already provides ADSL directly. The BSNL lineman of my area told me last year that FTTH sucks and you should stick to ADSL, people are coming back to ADSL from FTTH. I was like wtf, fiber will be better in every way and got it. Used it for an year till I got Jio earlier this month, the speeds were good but the reliability was just not there. Downtimes were very common. I don't remember our BSNL ADSL going down ever.

Bsnl is going to raise money through bond issues . Final approval has been given by govt. In this was we can hope they will raise money for direct fiber deployments. But still rural areas it will be lco basis I think, even airtel is looking for lco model for rural areas
