Well, the review is basically regarding how I perceive it for my use. So it will not necessarily reflect your experiences and may not be applicable if your needs aren’t similar to mine. For whatever it is worth, here it is.
Did some connection testing of internet connection at my home. All tests I ran from various sites gave the results between 200 - 270
kbps. Pick your favourite. Looks good enough for me. My typical use is
surfing, emails, and occasional downloads. Emails are the biggest as I
connect to office servers. And of course, all those auto updates that
keep downloading every alternate day.
Have been using Airtel for
last 1.5 years and I haven’t faced much problems with their service. It
is a bit expensive for the speed they provide but reliability is
better. In last 7 years of using non-dialup connections, this is so far
the most reliable. And dial-ups earlier to that were not reliable and
pretty expensive. I hope it remains as good.
Will upgrade to
higher speed only if they give in same price. Can’t pay anymore than
what I’m paying them now, which is Rs 999+ taxes(US$25+ taxes) per
month. Yes, downloads are unlimited.
It is good enough and is so much so that I don’t bother about it as it is always working fine. The fact that I take internet connectivity for granted says a lot about my experiences.
