New to MTNL Triband, and "I'm lovin it!"
I just looked at the Status -> ADSL section in the router admin page and saw that the upstream and downstream limits for the connection were both set at 256 kbps.
Theoretically, this would mean that a combined transfer rate of 512 kbps should be possible - 256 in + 256 out.
From what I understand, if an ADSL connection is rated at 256 kbps, it would mean that this is a combination of the upstream and downstream rates. Usually, an ADSL connection is asymmetric in nature - meaning, the downstream rate is higher than the upstream, since users tend to download more rather than upload.
In other words, MTNL is actually providing a 512 kbps connection calling it a 256 kbps one, and that too a symmetric one. Users can actually upload and download simultaneously at 256 kbps. So we can now give as much as we take B)
Go try it out!

Forgot to mention - it doesn't seem like MTNL is charging for uploads anyways! I've never seen them charge me as per the session history.
