A Possible +ve Guidance 2 every1 on Modem On/Off B4 & After 2-8 AM Unlimited Nite DL

I used to disconnect BB connection and the Modem before 2 AM and restart at 2.10 AM and again at 7.55/8.05 AM, fearing that the whole duration of downloading free down download may get charged !

many a times, a particular download (even 70% or more) may overlap 8 am barricade, i used to cancel the download at 7.50 am.

on 23/24 may (sat-sun), since my total bb usage (is) was well within the limit, i decided to continue the download of that particular file.
Gr8! thanks to God/BSNL - when i rebooted the pc and checked in the portal - i found the usage is counted only for the time from 8.00 am onwards.

Do verify the traffic on top and comment
here is the screenshot
 
Thanks .....:yahoo::yahoo::yahoo:
 
again on 24th morning, same case with much more downloads.
usage was high.
but when i checked up the portal, the traffic was counted only for download after 8 am.
do compare the total usage and the net traffic calculated from the screenshot given below:

Thanks to dears Dilip, SBB and SP
 
Thanks for sharing.If it is true, I can wish anything today. I am going to get it. Must be a miracle if BSNL fixed this. Been an issue for a very long time that people had enough time to write softwares. Please do not try this if you are low in your download limit. It can be some upgradation process in BSNL and it may change back without notice. In that case, all of your download during night (say 2 GB) will be charged. To check, switch off and On the modem at 7. 30 and try.
 
Recheck again. Since you continued beyond 0800AM usage is counted.115479 KB added to your usage quota.0403AM to 0823 AM. =114 MB approx 1MB=1024KBSince the file was small , you are within limit.We have to presume you downloaded ONLY after 0800AM.restart modem at about 0205 AM switch off modem around 0755 AM.

my experience automating the Nite UL download went futile in Kolkata.
powercut/voltage fluctuation does not permit me to keep the pc/connection on unattended. :wall::wall::wall:
other Kolkatans too would vouch for this.
may be other parts of india, one can risk keeping on the pc 24 hrs like my brother does in New York.
 
Well, a big thanks to Jai for sharing this +ve move from BSNL. But there is no official announcement regarding this. So we need to wait until BSNL confirms anything. Secondly, BSNL might be testing this feature. If this becomes final, then several NU users would be benefited.
 
thanks to everyone.this morning checked up my bb usage.status remain unchangedcontinuous b4 2am to nite UL and nite UL to after 8 am usage :: only usage b4 2am and after 8 am have been taken for calculation.since no. of pages have gone more, am not in a position to furnish herehowever, when the bill comes in, i wl keep u informed about any additional/exhorbitant bb use; and alsoi wl keep a watch on the usage page every month for any possible recalcualtion being done by bsnl at a later date for may09.contacted bsnl cuscare -no one is able to cofirm about this continuous usage with correction calculation of free usage.may be if someone come across such authentic information, may please share with me/us.

About this problem of yours.... I shall give you the following solutions...

Do follow it And you definetly will get rid of the problem....

1) First of all us a good UPS.... Specifically use of APC....with proper reating as in accordance to you System Power consumption....
Also along with it, having a SMPS of mildly good companies like Zebronics...would be really helpfull..... However if you use one made by...Coolermaster orAntec then its best...

2) Then as I have heard you have too much of power failure and fluctuation....
For such problem us a good inverter....such as Sukam...with proper Surge and Spike Protection available along with...it./......
Avoid using automatic stabilisers in b/w..... As there relays are very sensitive...and will cause unnecessary fluctuation in b/w...

3) Never connect your speaker...or Modem adapter to the output of your UPS... i AM SUGGESTING YOU WITH MY own personal experince.... I myself have too much fluctuation problem....And the I connected my modem`s and my speaker`s adapter to one extra available port on APC ES 500 modem....
With some time ended up in blowing the adapter of the Speaker....
And the modem itself..... So be very carefull with thiss...

4) And finally to fight Internet diconnection....The best solution is to use your modem in PPPoE mode....... With Always...On......That will help...


So finally I assume you will take my advice...Which will help you out......And enable you take goodnight sleeps at time for now on....:hysterical::hysterical:

Thankyou... :redface:

Why not make a simple batch file for connect and disconnect ?

Though I know about batch file cocept here...How will you make a batch file for this specific purpouse...

Specifically for me .... Whe I am using BSNL braodband Over PPPoE......

How...will you solve that problem out....
BSNL should deriously look over to that problem.....

Anyways ...This appropriation is done soon...
Then most of download mangers and Torrent Client have Scheduler....The Our task will be made much easier in such case....

We will need to just use Connection over PPPoE....AND SCHEDULE THE TASK from 2 to 8 am....

Wish happens soon...Anyways ...BSNL is definetly going new ways...Best of Luck...
 
tks himansu.
wl check ur details with my connection and get back to u.
greetings
