YOU Telecom: 1Mb for servers in India, 256Kb for the rest of the world's servers?

[USAUSAUSA]

So whenever I want to download from US servers (Youtube, etc), or run a dslreports.com speed test from a US server, I get crap speeds of around 256k. When I test off a server located in India (which I can do off speedtest.net) I do indeed get 1Mbps. SO it seems the problem is with YOU Telecom's connection to the outside world.I swear MTNL's 512Kb was faster at connecting to outside servers.Is there anything I can do? Like a proxy to a fat pipe somewhere here in India that has a better connection to the world than YOU Telecom?
