Really?

This is a very strange issue. I don't think anyone else is having similar issues, or has bothered to start a thread on this topic. I mean I just looked at the top ten topics on the forum and couldn't find a mention on what this issue is.

Contact BSNL helpline. Dial 100 and tell them your problem. They will 'fix' the issue for sure.

hah. all the ISPs in india have a great answer for any potential complaint. cable cut would take 10 days. go die.

Try the below site...
(mt) Media Temple - Web Hosting Built to Scale.

I am not able to load it.

It might have something to do with this news:
New Delhi, Dec. 20: Three cables under the Mediterranean Sea which link Europe to West Asia have been damaged, causing partial slowdown in India’s Internet and telecom traffic.

Yesterday, suddenly the speed increased and RS, DF, .. all worked well except EZ. But again from today, speed gone down drastically.

Easy-share is down/ very slow and I am not being able to download at all while earlier I was getting even 200 KB/s speed. Are you guys facing same problem with Easy-share?

Yes, I am also facing unstable Internet connection since Friday December 19, 2008. The link-removed downloads are really gone slow and they timeout. I believe this problem is due to the Under Sea Cable cut. There is no official information from BSNL about this problem and I have not seen any committed date to fix the problem. Lets hope that it gets fixed immediately and the internet becomes stable. Good luck,Ckr / Bangalore / BSNL 750UL
