well lads, i fell for the meme and finally got the glorious FTTH connection. 😀

Price - 2828 (incl. GST) for 3 Months. No additional charges for installation.

Landline will not not be provided. you need to buy you own and use the port on router.

I changed my DNS to 1.1.1.1 (DNS queries will be routed/resolved through Mumbai CF node)
also changed few settings in firefox 🙂

You are from hyderabad?
2828 for 3 months with unlimited quota?
 
LOL Excitel claims as pure unlimited player but still has 100GB per day FUP & suspends the connection as commercial. Have a look
 
I guess that was a mistake from Excitel side. Cause a lot of times i have crossed 100 even 200gb/day and have not yet faced any issue.
 


Yeah, as many problems Excitel may have, I have constantly downloaded 3-8TB of data each month when I was on their connection without encountering any problems.

@heisenberg333 , Sorry, I don't have a router atm. will update when i have one. I don't see any option named or resembling "bridge" in router settings.

Updates:

router page: 192.168.1.1

It's now changed automatically to

username: password


Observations:

Bad News:

* us.archive.ubuntu.com is horrendously slow, i get max speed of 100kbps. Note that this is the default mirror set for ubuntu and all of it's derivatives unless changed.
I suggest changing your mirror to something in Singapore (i use 0x.sg). IIT KGP(indian mirror) is a hit or miss and reputably unreliable.

---

Good News:

Upon changing DNS to 1.1.1.1 all of your sanskaari (TPB etc..) websites open without a hitch.
 
Bro, can you post a guide for setting up the 1.1.1.1 dns ? Its set in individual pc or in router dhcp settings ? or in another place ? I tried setting in dhcp but the result is same cannot open link-removed
