Hi Mumbai ppl,How is your fivenet connection working and what plans are you using? My major concern is, does it get disconnected often? I read somewhere that it disconnects twice everyday for a minute or two for change of servers? Is this true for everyone? Thanks
 
well, not sure about daily disconnection,but it does disconnect after every 2 GB data download or upload.
 
This thread might be valuable, but there are a few threads about frequent disconnections that do not bode well for Fivenet's reliability (I've heard mostly good things about them), so my advice to nevillek in another thread may be off!

If it's correct that people are frequently experiencing disconnections with Fivenet (especially those on different cablewalas), then I'll discontinue recommending them as an option until we come along. Otherwise, if it's a cablewala problem (as this thread seems to suggest), then it's one of those things that'll come down to "your mileage may vary".

Disconnection after 2 GB transfer is applicable to all fivenet users.BTW on 27 Feb we celebrate "Jagtik marathi bhasha din"(World Marathi Language Day). so you can wish your wife, as she is maharashtrian 🙂

Really? I've not heard any complaints about that from other users - even my Mrs has not complained of this phenomenon and she's on Fivenet until Hayai gets there.

I'll make a note of it. Ahhhhhhhhhhhh India... always celebrating something or other. The land of the perennial holiday 😀

May be she doesn't use DC++ otherwise i don't think ladies are fond of downloading.

That's a bit stereotypical, don't you think? I don't think she uses DC++ (I've not taught her to) but torrents yes.

Although it's not a 50/50 split, the private trackers of which I'm a member have an average of about 33% of the subscribers claiming to be female.
 
my wife can saturate my entire bandwidth if i let her do it using torrents.
 
this is off topic but I got to post this




how ofte n do u see the SITE OP alone working on all front of discussion. ???? :wink:
 
ah well. what to do. i have little else to do with my free time now that i have been unemployed for like a decade now 🙁
 
i am not sure if most of u know but some of the best BR rippers and the 1 i prefer d/l from are females. In fact i used to think that my fav riper was a "HE" when its acually a "She". Not to mention that some of them are in their early 30's. One popular example i can give is that the popular torrent site K**D are mostly run by the ladies !!
