Your opinion about Airtel Broadband

 

[Sushubh]

after checking this forum you still need opinion?

I agree with Sushubh, the airtel thread is the only one where every user is happy. which includes me.. i'll give it two thumbs up

Sushubh, you were complaining of the speed on your 256K line. Is it because you have shared the lines or is it a problem from Airtel's side???

 

[Sushubh]

i just said. normal surfing is not that fast. but its ok. its worth the trouble staying away from sify in my hometown panchkula

but i guess its better than the sucky 64Kbps connection that i have

Max, i just hope that airtel gets to mumbai soon and you can get a connection ... don't you have any other options other than sify ?

wiz, i use Reliance powersurfer.net (previously BSES powersurfer) And no I dont have any other decent options. I do have MTNL DSL's option but I refuse to get tied down by stupid download limits.

What MTU values do you have in ur router and registry ?

i found setting them to 1492 gives an avg surf speed of 20KB/s on some sites. That's the best you can via PPoE.

Don't think there's any option for setting the MTU value in the 220bx....or is there? Also can u give the path for the registry entry ur talking abt? ThxAm resonably happy with Airtel so far. Only problem is that of high latencies.
