BusinessLine just has reported that MTNL is launching IPTV very shortly for Rs.300. It will have 250 channels. This is just introducory pricing but prices will change soon. BSNL will also use DWDM technology between homes to launch this service.

Have u guys got any idea about when Iptv will be launched in chennai by BSNL? Some of the posts had links stating that IPTV will be launched in chennai and Mumbai at the same time.I have a list of doubts 😀 .I'm curious about that whether it will be available under ADSL ~2Mbps or ADSL 2+ ~24 Mbps 😛 .Im asking that 'cos i have D-Link DSL 502-T modem and it has only the ADSL firmware not ADSL2+ 🙁 . In the STB section they say it has a RJ-45 ethernet interface.The modem has only one Ethernet interface ,so how can we watch TV and surf at the same time ? i have a wireless router with 4 Ethernet ports ,so is it possible to setup the IPTV thru' it?

You dont need an ADSL modem , u need a separate Set top box

sundar_milo: The telephone will go into a 3 way splitter:
1) For voice telephony thru regular telephone set
2) For broadband internet thru ur ADSL Modem/Router and
3) For IPTV thru a separate Set Top Box

So ur bandwidth or data limit has nothing to do with IPTV as its on totally different platform....
