I would like to get connected with Internet in my computer.

I'm a office going guy and will use internet for approx 2 hrs on daily and 10 hrs on week days and holidays.

please suggest me which is a best Internet Service Provider (IPS) for my usage. I'm not sure the usage (i.e. 1 GB, 2GB etc)

I have 3 GB RAM, 500 GB HDD, i3 second generation.

Please suggest:

1) best IPS- (i.e. AIRTEL, BSNL, MTS, YOU, SIFY, RELIANCE, TATA, OTHERS)

2.) Unlimited usage with in a budget of up to Rs.1000/- p.m.

thanks in advance

I think you should choose MTS Mblaze which Im using its easy to use and handle.The downloading and surfing speed is great and its unlimited plan is at 800pm.You may also choose Reliance net connect for greater speed

First of all introspect about the speeds they get in your area before getting any wireless plan,like at my place i dont get speed in MTS and photon. So i rely on plans from MTNL,its consistent with speed and cheap too. So it depends on your locality and your needs.

hey

u can choose between airtel and bsnl

and rest jus ignore them

they arent of much use

u can get a 750 plan unlimited usage from bsnl and 899 plan unlimited from airtel

both give good speeds

airtel speed is beter than bsnl and service is also good

but bsnl is also not too bad

m currently using bsnl 750 plan and its good

cheers

Dont go for TATA Photon, Reliance Net Connect and other wireless internet connections.

BSNL offer internet with good speed but the problem is if there is any problem with connection, it may take week or even month to rectify it. (I personally experienced it)

Now i am using Airtel and service is great. Service person will be in your home within 1 hour.

go for BSNL or MTNL these are the best, am using 900 unlimited plan for home which is giving me 4MBPS for first 8 GB which is good amount for browsing, yes the service person do take time to come, but when book ur complaint at call centers of BSNL they are quick,

Don't go for BSNL & MTNL. Their service is pethatic. Although their plans are great but when talk about service, once u face any problem u will come to know. They don't resolve the problem for 1-2 months and definitely they ask for the rent for that period.

I think airtel is a good option. Their service is great, speed is gud and they have gud plans.

Bsnl products are the best in terms of value for money but their service is poor. Nevertheless, it is rare that you would require them to fix an issue as it is quite reliable with very little downtime.. My modem is quite a few years old and still working fine.. Also you can switch between plans quite easily with just a phone call.. But yea, I agree when something goes wrong, although rare, you need to depend on prayers for a quick resolution! :) I've heard Airtel is good too.

Airtel is the best in any product I have used.

They are high priced than BSNL. But the service is fantastic.

I would pay for their quality.

BSNL is cheap. Has problems now and then. And it has turned into a sick unit. It needs 17500 crores funds to be working really well. So the future of BSNL is uncertain and grim [I'm pessimistic].

I would choose airtel.

Sir,

Ist of all check where u want to use the internet connection @ office or home if it network connectivty is good than go for wireless otherwise go for land line boradband.

if u r in the live in delhi than buy a 3G USB device of Micromax from Market, and and MTNL SIM from Sanchar HAT. the benefit of micromax modem is that if u r not satisfied with the one company u can change the sim and switch over to the other company whose network better in your area i.e. house or office. I m using MTNL 3G plans and i am satisfied with the speed and it costing

MTNL has different data plans u can check it on the website www.mtnldelhi.in.

if u want more details please be in touch @ 9810447090
