Hello,

I wanted to get BSNL Broadband connection (the only option!) but the nearest landline pole is nearly 400m far from my home. I've to ask them regarding this but at this time, can someone from you tell me if there is any hope to get connection here?

And if they say that they can't than is there anything I can do?

Hoping for a quick reply, thank you! 🙂

A decent smart phone / tablet ~ Rs. 5,000

A decent PC ~ Rs. 9,000

A decent broadband ~ Rs. 600 pm

Most Indian homes have only one earning member and mostly around Rs. 10,000 per month. He cannot avoid skipping a smart phone. How many homes had 2 TVs till date ?

I still know people who are richer than me and still use just 3g dongles even though they have latest tabs and cellphones. The mind set up between Faridabad and Gurgaon is still very different in some cases. A man earning x will have a better Lifestyle than the same man earning x living in Faridabad but the positive is that he will save more in Faridabad.

You are right but its still not all about money but also about the areas mindset in which we live.

Any house with more than 2-3 devices would prefer to get a wired broadband. People who rely on wireless internet completely are usually the ones who travel a lot and do not spend much time at home. This is assuming they have good options for wired broadband at their place.

I assume that you are talking about Gurgaon only.

I am talking about common sense. If I have access to good wired connectivity, and I have multiple devices at my home that are used on a daily basis... Why would I get wireless internet that costs more and quality of service is inferior?

Maybe I just expect too much from the people of this country. No wonder 4G is being hailed as the replacement for wired broadband. Jai Digital India.

Sorry for responding here after long time. 😛

I don't think I can convince anyone. I asked a local WiMAX Broadband service provider and they said that my area have so many trees for there device to catch signals. :banghead:
And they will come in some time to check whether it is possible to give reliable connection here.

So, can someone tell me how WiMax connection is provided? Means, there will be one device on the top of the house and a wire will be connection to the computer? Please try to explain me about it! 🙁

I got my first broadband connection in April 2005, I was at the end of the 5 Km range and the drop wire connection was unstable, my SDO promptly installed a multi cable [ 16 wires in one cable ] that stabilized my connection , and it has stayed till date.

Now that the bb range has extended to 20+ Km from the exchange, i don't think 400+ mtr distance from pole is any issue, just meet the local SDO [ Lines ] and your problem will be promptly sorted out.
