Anybody has opted for the reliance 12 Mbps plan?
I stay in delhi and i have been using mtnl 599 unlimited 512kbps plan (no fup) for around 4 years. MTNL has been really unreliable for me and the line goes down very often and the mtnl guys were unable to sort out the issue for me. Apart from these, i also have a Reliance Netconnect/Tata Photon. However, these wireless datacards are also very unreliable. Thus i had to move on to a consistent wireline broadband connection. Unfortunately Airtel was not available in my region so i had to opt for Reliance.
I opted for the Reliance 12Mbps plan. The day i got it installed (last week), the first thing i checked in front of the lineman was the bandwidth using speedtest and relaince speedometer. Reliance speedometer always shows me speeds between 5Mbps and 6Mbps nomatter what. The results of Speedtest.net and speedometer do not match at all. Nomatter what, i have never seen speeds of 12Mbps. Another point is that the browsing speeds might be good (youtube buffering happens automatically) but while downloading applications and softwares, i usually get a speed of 64kBps -100KBps implying that my actual speed is around 512KBps-1MBps. I have been calling the reliance customer care everyday but nobody has a clue. One TSR told me that the speed you will get would be between 1-2 Mbps only since the 12Mbps line has a contention ration of 1:8 impliying that the bandwidth is shared between 8 people. Nomatter what i argued, he failed to accept that there was an issue. Iv raised the issue a number of times but it really doesnt help.
The connection is through what it looks like a normal ADSL cable (though it looks a bit thinner than the normal LAN cable) and without a model
