Excitel is pretty fucked up at my end right now. Have tried everything. Restarted routers several times. Pings are bad. And connectivity is awful. Cannot even run a speedtest.

looks like my sector is now covered by the excitel weekend curse. or shall i say evening curse. internet was unusable yesterday. it is unusable right now.
 
den boomband guy left a brochure at my place earlier today. let me check the plans and see. i do not have patience to deal with this fucktards.

Would be applying in the morning. As complaining to Excitel would be a pointless exercise.
 

speed on my end is shit as well. on 75 mbps plan but getting like 35 mbps down. also had a talk with lco . dont think he will provide via fiber anytime soon. man i hope this reduced speed will get fixed in a day or two
 
Speed got fine at 9:30pm.

called the local guy. he said that the wiring might have developed issue and he would replace it tomorrow morning. he promised that he would fix this issue tomorrow. did not indicate that it was due to overloaded network. let's see.

tomorrow is sunday so the problem should repeat again tomorrow evening.
 
There is a pattern to every disruptive service. I remember, I was one of the very few privileged who got the Jio preview when no one heard about it, speeds were incredible. On Band 40 I was getting a minimum 12-13MB/s symmetric when the tower was no where near my residence. Eventually, speeds got shit and now it's less than turtle. There was a great article in ET titled, India riding on 4G lanes at 3G speeds.
The same cycle seems to be repeating now in case of Excitel.
 
excitel has the advantage of being a wired player. they do not have to pay for expensive spectrum. hell, i doubt they are even paying for laying down their cables over electricity poles and trees. the whole thing is in their hands. and i seriously hope they had a strategy in place when they boosted their plans to 50/75/100mbps.
 
i personally do not care if i get 50mbps all the time. i don't even care about the 80% trai regulation. the internet needs to be usable. when airtel 4mbps is more usable than your 50mbps plan 😀 it kind of becomes unacceptable 😀
 
I am not going to touch ACT if it comes to my area 😀 They really have gone downhill in the past couple of years 😀

But then Hathway has a lot of complaints in recent days here on the forum itself. And I have not seen much feedback about DEN 🙁
