Yeah it would be a business service.. As mg said he is going to offer the broadband in the three to four packages.. I would go with a corporate package(Not sure in which I may end up)..

But my main point is instead we going to some cloud providers like amazon or google why can't we make them available in India itself when such high bandwidths are available like 1Gibt/s to 45 Gibt/s(Seen somewhere in mg post).

Exactly, and why should the state involve itself in the private affairs of ppl. This is blindingly obvious isn't it.

If they chose not to speak that langauge a customer is free to choose another provider, there is no obligation on the business guy other than profit to do so.

Option 1:

Better check with BSNL Broadband section ( JTO) ( Nearest Exchange)
if on rent can be replaced.
if purchased outright within one year free replacement.
Do not try any Firmware upgrade.

Option 2:

You have to RESET the modem to FACTORY settings
to access 192.168.1.1 admin admin.
(RESET access either in rear of unit or bottom right side small round hole)
Option 3:
In Network tcp/Ip properties
enter
192.168.1.10

most of it does boil down to congestion or network inadequacy, I do know that for sure, as I live in a college hostel, where >100 photon+ users are covered by a single tower.
During vacations or exams(when noone is using the internet) I get speeds of 1-2(rarely 2.5) Mbps at a signal strength of 70-80%
During peak time(around midnight when the college net is blocked) it is almost impossible to even connect(1130 PM-1230 AM) and even if you do connect you will get 0.02-0.2Mbps speeds..(if their DNS is not down)
