The highest download speed you ever reached Posted: 29 Sep 2013 11:47 AM PDT Once at a friend's place (hostel) there was an unsecured wifi network, and I downloaded at almost 1MBps. I would often go to his place to download. But, after 1-2 months the network became secured and so it was the end of delight. So, anyways what is the highest download speed you have ever got? |
Posted: 29 Sep 2013 11:45 AM PDT Was checking Bsnl plans and found they have a true unlimited 1Mbps Prepaid plan for rs.1600 valid for a 20 day duration. Kinda expensive but an option nonetheless. |

Funny Videos, Images and Jokes Posted: 29 Sep 2013 11:15 AM PDT MS staff There was a pilot flying a small single engine charter plane, with a couple of very important executives on board. He was coming into Seattle airport through thick fog with less than 10m visibility when his instruments went out. So he began circling around looking for landmark. After an hour or so, he starts running pretty low on fuel and the passengers are getting very nervous. Finally, a small opening in the fog appears and he sees a tall building with one guy working alone on the fifth floor. The pilot banks the plane around, rolls down the window and shouts to the guy "Hey! Where am I?" To this, the solitary office worker replies "You're in a plane." The pilot rolls up the window, executes a 275 degree turn and proceeds to execute a perfect blind landing on the runway of the airport 5 miles away. Just as the plane stops, so does the engine as the fuel has run out. The passengers are amazed and one asks how he did it. "Simple" replies the pilot, "I asked the guy in that building a simple question. The answer he gave me was 100 percent correct but absolutely useless, therefore that must be Microsoft's support office and from there the airport is just a while away." __________________________________________________________ Is Windows a virus?

Frequent Disconnection / ADSL blinking Issue on MTNL Broadband Posted: 29 Sep 2013 10:57 AM PDT Hi, I am a user of 849NU plan of MTNL Triband service since August based out of Navi Mumbai. All of August, i was very happy to have a lovely connection and good speeds, with a pretty good tariff. But now since the past 15 days I am suffering from very intermittent net connection. Although I am connected to the internet, sometimes the webpages take ages to open, and never open, while at other times it opens instantly. Also downloading has the same pattern, sometimes I get very good speeds of upto 200 Kbps, while other times there is no download. Although all download sites show good Triband Speed, but it is the intermittent connection that is the problem. This problem has crept up in the last 15 odd days, and I have tried everything but no change has been noticed. Has anyone else faced a similar problem, and if yes, whats the work around. The people at MTNL classify this as a slow connection problem, but that is exactly not the issue, as I do get good speeds intermittently. Somebody please help me. |
Minimum internet plan required, only for video calls and some browsing. Posted: 29 Sep 2013 10:56 AM PDT Hello friends, One of my neighbors is looking for an internet plan. They are an elderly couple, recently their son from abroad sent them a tab that has only wifi connection, so that they can have video calls with them when needed. They dont have any pc or laptop. My guess is its the first time they would be using internet. Since I use spectranet and its quite good at my place i suggested them the same, where as their friends and relatives gave them other suggestions. They are yet to make a decision. So my question is, in terms of speed what is the minimun speed plan required to make video calls over skype and how much data one would consume over calls with little browsing in a month? I need to know so that I can suggest them a limited plan that is economical as well. Thanks! |

Unable to extend validity or recharge on portal.bsnl.in Posted: 29 Sep 2013 10:27 AM PDT I have been trying to extend the validity of my bsnl sim, but when it goes to the select plan dropdown and when i select a plan it just hangs.

The general cricket discussion thread Posted: 29 Sep 2013 09:50 AM PDT Why this thread? So often, we have some random thought or point to make/discuss , and I personally sometimes skip it as I feel it is not worthy of a new thread & feel its unfair to hijack an existing thread... Would recommend creating new thread for any big news & as usual we have threads for specific series/tournaments.. This is for something general random posts related to cricket...Kind of the Cricket Offtopic thread... Will start with one post ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Misbah & Taibu seem to competing with each other for the prize of who can bat more defensively.... ---------- After beating NZ in the 3rd ODI with a draing chase...

Posted: 29 Sep 2013 09:42 AM PDT i heard from one of the Lco is that hathway network charges more compared to others..they have their own rules..everone needs to follow that..For example;if ur paying 250rs monthly as cable charges,100rs needs to be given to hathway as service tax and that is the reason some LCO shifting to other network |
Posted: 29 Sep 2013 09:23 AM PDT Airtel called me today and said since I'd taken Smartbytes for 12gb last month, they wanted to offer 125 fup plan(80gb now) at the same speed(8mbps) for 50rs extra.
I also heard they are giving 3g at 2g rates in my area these days. |

Pathetic technical Support from Bharti - Airtel Posted: 29 Sep 2013 07:50 AM PDT I'm finally writing to explain how frustrated I'm with the technical support provided by India's leading DSL provider Bharti - Airtel. I originally started having problems with my DSL on 14th September 2013 (Saturday) that the DSL light started blinking (It usually stays on) and I could not browse the internet, Called the customer service and got an interaction ID 38556828, I was so happy to get a callback from the technician with next 3 hours. I was not at home that time but let him in to work on the problem. He called me back in 15 - 20 minutes to inform that the link seems to be down and he would get it checked from the backend and let me know. He did not answer the same day and the next day. On Monday the 16th Sep when I called the customer service I was surprised to hear that the ticket was closed without the resolution on which I suggested to get it re-opened which no one could since they were well in SLA. I got a new request raised (38605272) to get the connection cancelled. Someone from retention called me back in just 2 hours and mentioned that they would raise a priority ticket (38615858) to get the connection fixed the same day which I agreed to and he closed (Cancellation ticket 38605272 ). SLA which I received on SMS was to get the issue resolved on 17/09 (14:00 Hrs). No one called me back till 17th evening and I had to call the customer service again for getting this cancelled. 38657068 was raised on 17th for the cancellation request, I again got a callback within 2 hours from the retention department in Gurgaon mentioning that he would personally take care of my problem today itself and opened another ticket 38615858 with the SLA of 18/09 - 11:00 Hrs. As always the Engineer did not care about the ticket, no one called and the issue stayed Unresolved with me down for 5 days. It was a high time on 19th when I finally decided not to stay with the Service provider who cannot provide SERVICE so I called and was informed that he is not senior enough to raise a disconnection request and that he would get the request escalated which I denied mentioning not to escalate since I do not want to use AIRTEL anymore. Multiple tickets 38777910 / 38817618 / 38848744 / 38980044 have been raised since then with NO LUCK at all. A Service manager called me from his personal cellphone on 26th September (Which I liked) that he is personally taking care of my problem and would follow it up and get it resolved the same day. Which did not happen even while I'm writing it on 27th September about 16:00 Hrs

Suggestion for Printer Server cum Router Posted: 29 Sep 2013 06:29 AM PDT I have a SCX 4300 Samsung printer at my place which does not support WiFi printing. I also have a 450TC1 ADSL2+ router on my airtel broadband but the WiFi range is very poor on it.
I am thinking to purchase an equipment which can solve both purposes whereby 1) it becomes a print server for my printer and I should be able to print documents from any machine wirelessly and 2) it doubles up as a WiFi router to extend range of WiFi and let me transfer files on the WiFi itself instead of using my internet GBs. |
Can Wireless transfers be done using 450TC1? Posted: 29 Sep 2013 06:03 AM PDT I have an Airtel broadband connection. As I understand Beetel 450TC1 is a modem cum wireless router. I was wondering is there any easy way to set up wireless transfers between two computers in the same household one having win XP and other Win 7.
I don't really want to use internet for such purposes for 1) it is a slow process when huge files are involved and 2) it will unnecessarily waste my internet GBs. |

Posted: 29 Sep 2013 05:34 AM PDT I ordered Biotique soaps from HK last week amongst other items. Each soap is Rs 70 and I expect them to send me normal stuff which I get in store. Instead they have shipped me 15 month old stock with the wrappers a mess and the soap damaged and powdery. Looks like they buy scrap and resell at MRP. I bought Brut soaps too, but those were fine. It was the Biotique ones that were a waste. Suggest you guys be aware before ordering here. |

Hathway in Kolkata - Help with STB Posted: 29 Sep 2013 05:00 AM PDT Recently Hathway launched in Kolkata. Our LCO changed to Hathway and installed a Skyworth C9000 STB in my house. But there seems to be some issues with the STB.
The EPG is only updated for 10 hrs. In some channels I can only see the channel number but no channel name. But one can see the video and audio. In one case the same channel is present in two different channel numbers.
Do I need to re-tune the STB?
There is no menu option in the STB to re-tune.
Can somebody help with any HOT-KEY option? |
Need Suggestion for a backup broadband in Gurgaon Posted: 29 Sep 2013 04:53 AM PDT I have a small office setup at my home in Gurgaon and completely rely on Airtel broadband. Of late I am seeing deterioration of Airtel services in my area where it goes down every 10-15 days for 5-8 hours at times. I am planning to get a backup internet service.
What do you think would be the best and affordable back up internet service for my case where at least 2-3 users should be able to connect to the internet wirelessly. |
Posted: 29 Sep 2013 04:05 AM PDT Hi can someone please post the AIRTEL escalation matrix. ? Give the Airtel nodal officer's email-ID. Requite it urgently.

MTNL Broadband VDSL2 User Experiences Posted: 28 Sep 2013 01:17 PM PDT I wanted to start a new experience thread simply to discuss MTNL VDSL.
SNR margins (SNRM)
Higher you sync rate, lower the SNRM will be. Lower the SNRM, lower the connection reliability. Lower reliability means frequent disconnections. Hence ISP's have a setting in DSLAM to artificially increase SNRM value for a particular phone line. Hence you sync at lower rate and line automagically becomes stable.
Attenuation may not be that important after all. It reduces sync speeds over a distance but is not an indicator of connection reliability. (You can roughly calculate your line length from it. Do it here) Apply for VDSL connection only if you are within half km. Otherwise you will get ADSL like sync rates. I will update this entry with some of our findings. Since VDSL is somewhat new to India, this thread can help some early adopters.
Currently the speeds are decent for fast servers. But single streams are slow due to a bottleneck somewhere.

Posted: 28 Sep 2013 01:01 PM PDT Hello Everybody My mom have Tata Docomo CDMA (Tata Indicom) in Bangalore/Karnataka. We don't have any problems with coverage or tariff so far. We have IDEA, Tata Docomo GSM and Airtel apart from Tata Docomo CDMA. We have visited many places such Tirupati, Chennai etc in which besides Airtel, Tata Docomo CDMA was only operator which was having coverage. I would become surprised by seeing Tata Docomo CDMA's coverage as GSM is widespread and there is option of Tower Sharing in CDMA. I have also not seen any other operator even coming close to call quality when comparing with Tata Docomo CDMA. May be it could be because of the handset too which is Samsung Metro TV bought several years ago. The call would very clear and loud. Now i am looking to convert the number to a GSM operator to buy her a good phone. Can a GSM operator offer the superior call quality and coverage CDMA Technology offers ? Even though the topic i am discussing here might be focused, the answer to my question would have broad meaning. So, please share your thoughts on this. |

Airtel Fraud- 200 Rs Deducted from Airtel prepaid Posted: 28 Sep 2013 11:48 AM PDT I received a SMS few minutes ago saying that 3G bill plan has been activated on my mobile phone. But I didn't request any 3G Bill Plan. When I checked my prepaid balance, its showing 4 Rs only when it should be more than 200 Rs. Never go for Airtel, they are a fraud company who likes to cheat customers, and make money. God knows how many people they are cheating like this. Should I go to consumer court? |

SC gives voters an option of ' right to reject' Posted: 28 Sep 2013 10:13 AM PDT SC gave this landmark verdict, by giving an option to voters to reject a candidate. SC said its a democratic right of an individual to opt for 'none of the above', if they think that, none of the candidates are worth voting.
I think if more than half the voters opt for 'none of the above', there should be re-election. What are your thoughts on this verdict of SC?

Phone line good but internet is very slow Posted: 28 Sep 2013 10:08 AM PDT Hello, I have new bsnl broadband connection and i opted for 1425 plan (4MBPs) , but i get only 0.45 MBPS and download is even worse at 25-30 kbps.The bsnl guys connected a brand new wire for my line and my phone line is also very clear.I thought i had a problem in my modem and gone to bsnl exchange to check it, there they connected my modem with my line at their at end and speed was like charm , it showed almost 4 MBPs.They told me to check my latop for virus and lan card. I backed up my data and formatted my system and installed kaspersky in it.But still the problem exists.I am pulling my hair out thinking that what could have happed wrong,i even bought my friends laptop and checked it with my connection,but it also shows same.

Posted: 28 Sep 2013 08:08 AM PDT I live in Bangalore, central/north location. I was using BSNL for a few years as I never tried to find out any alternative, Airtel was not available in my location. Then I heard about ACT from my sister, so I decided to find out about it. Some people complained that ACT is not too consistent and one can face any downtime anytime, but some said it worked flawlessly. So I contacted them that I am interested in ACT Broadband. They got to my home in a matter of 2 days and installed the connection in 3-4 days time once I had filled the form and submitted the payment for one month. I asked the guy directly, that if there are any sudden downturns in the internet because I cannot tolerate. I was using BSNL, slow and expensive but atleast it barely had any downturns. But the guy said, some areas do have that inconsistency problem but he promised me that my area is perfect and there wont be any problem.
Till now, been using for 2 months, barely it may have stopped for a few minutes once or twice and never had any problem. Consistently getting high speeds, I bought 25mbps ACT Indulge plan and I've been getting around 40-50mbps actually. Downloads are running at 4.5-5MB/second. Consistently working without any problems and I am happy I left BSNL internet (4mbps net upto 20gb for 1350). For same price, Im now getting 40-50mbps and 60gb downloads. That is way way more than what BSNL was offering.
Make sure you people change your DNS to the fastest google DNS - 1) 8.8.8.8 (2) 8.8.4.4
Don't use automatic DNS provided by ISPs. Speeds will improve heavily once you use Google DNS.
I think Bangalore users should give it a try but surely find out in the area if the speed is consistent. There is nothing worse than an inconsistent internet, very annoying for users like me who work online.

101:Fire emergency number. Is this how is should behave? Posted: 28 Sep 2013 02:21 AM PDT I live in noida and on my way to office saw a tree catching fire in the sector premises itself. To make things worse there was an electric pole adjacent and flames were touching the wire. So I called up 101 from my mobile to inform about the fire. Guess what was the reply. "aapki call Delhi fire service mein aayi hai. Noida ke liye local number se call karo". Fire is an emergency should it be handled this way? |

Get 2mbps Download Speed on MTNL Broadband Freedom 800 Plan Posted: 28 Sep 2013 01:31 AM PDT I Just resetted my modem at 08:30pm on 28/04/2012 and see the result |
Posted: 28 Sep 2013 01:04 AM PDT Until now I had separate plans for landline and broadband on the same number. But in recent months the calls made via landline have become negligible. I was thinking of shifting to a combo plan. What is the procedure for it? Will opting for the combo plan disable the landline plan or will I have to request for that separately? |
