Hi,

Are there any unlimited schemes in BSNL like we have in Sify? That is
the only reason I am still in Sify narrowband..

Rgds,
Karthick S.

Hello,
For the same reason I shifted from sify to bsnl broadband. Sify
Narrowband(32-64 kbps if u call broadband) is most unreliable & the
wiring they have done is haphazard runs over 440-230volts line in most
places & over trees.. So far i have changed three ethernet cards due to
sify.

Bsnl Broadnabd though has minor problem some times, is giving
consistently between 256kbps to 300kbps. For a change a govenment
complany is doing well.
