encrypted dns is always better. i don't know if spectra is doing hanky panky with dns queries like excitel or act(?).

I got banned!
^ So I setup Stubby (with Cloudflre and Google DNS, both over TLS) and dnsmasq (for caching) on my MiniPC and set that as the default resolver on the DHCP server. Will monitor for a day or two.
Over the last few weeks, most of the time, I end up just disabling the wifi and use my Jio 4G data on the phone for stuff to load quickly. 🤷♂️

Guy is considering buying Spectra. Must have big pockets.
Please don't. I live in East Bangalore and I am having internet connection issues for more than half of the time. There is a downtime of 15 hours or entire day and I have their very sms as proof. Whenever I am at home, I am unable to connect. I use my mobile internet for booking cab in the morning every day. When I try to work from home, I am forced to rely solely on mobile internet since Spectra internet is always down.
I had paid Rs. 8842 for 6 months service and in the past 2 months, downtime was more than 30 days. I'm subject to mental stress since I am unable to work while at home, unable to book online services when needed at home and I was refunded for a mere day's service. I am using my Mobile internet which is an additional cost. My modems are always running which is just a waste if electricity too, with the hope of receiving connectivity.
Money and peace lost with this bogus company.
Yes.
1. Gigabit doesn’t matter unless you’re getting great speeds, jitter, ping, routing to all servers all the time. In that respect I would rather go with ACT 150 or Airtel 300. Both of which are cheaper. In fact apart from uploads, even Jio might do well for lay people.
2. Almost nobody really needs unlimited data. For most people 1000-2000 GB is as good as unlimited. And all companies these days provide that.
3. Would you seriousply take Spectra Gig Uld over Airtel 300 3333 GB?
4. The most important thing is downtime and service. And routing and consistency to all servers is key too. These things aren’t Spectra’s strength right?
If you only get full speed to Spectra BLR, that’s not really a Gig connection right?

@aakshey Tag the people you're replying to because you're confusing us.
I'm soon moving to Bangalore, I will try all three, ACT, Spectra, Airtel. I will start with Spectra's 500 Mbps plan and see how it goes.
As far as data goes, I consume more than 3 TB per month. I'm a heavy torrent downloader and seeder,

@Dark_Nate I can’t see the option to tag on this website. Please advise.
If you do download more than 3 TB a month, then yes, Spectra is your only option. But I don’t see the point of it.
1. All TV shows / movies can be streamed these days.
2. Nobody needs more than 1 TB worth of games a month.
3. You can’t really listen to TBs worth of songs.

You are tagging correctly. Using "@[username]".
1. Yes, I stream.
2. I seed the games.
3. I seed even more games.
I have 10 TB of external storage. I make income by downloading content based on people's request, as long as it's legal content.

@Dark_Nate Who pays to seed games? Can’t they download on their own?
@Dark_Nate OK. I thought you said you make income.
