Reliance Wi- Max or Airtel Broadband??

[I Me Myself]

Hello Friends,

I have changed my location from one society to other ( 0.5 km away from previous one in pune itself ), previously i was using Airtel unlimited 1200 with 1 mbps speed at night and 512 kbps day time. Because of some technical??
( Airtel: we cant give 1 connection in 1 society as the device costs almost 3-4 lacks for wireline broadband and we should revenue that much in coming years & we cant shift your old connection here as well.Tata Indicom Broadband: We have stopped giving connections to Home users. Reliance: Never replied to my mail for new connection in last 20 days.)

But all of a sudden a customer executive came with wimax plan as he cant give wireline connection too .oo(becoz who will take expensive wi-max then ) and same day Airtel customer executive came and collected my documents for new wire line connection for impatient 1699 plan without any fair use policy. I dont know if they will still give me connection or not.

My main purpose of internet is downloading data and lots of data and my quetsion is should I go for Reliance Wi- Max or Airtel Broadband??
Wi - Max costing me 1200 INR p.m. for 600 kbps unlimited download speed where as airtel broadband offering me 2mbps unlimited ( without any fair use policy ) for 1699 INR p.m.

Is BSNL wimax available in Pune , if it then go for it , another wise Reliance wimax is ok but not reliable , as it is working on unlicenced band , and interference may be occurred

ohh unfortunately only reliance wi-max is available here and i dont want to go for data cards. How about actual download speed of wi-max comparing broadband which gets divided by 8?

wireline is anytime better tham wireless connection,no matter who is the ISP. If airtel can provide you the BB connection and without any FUP then better go for this one. But do confirm about the FUP policy. I have myself experienced that they never feel shy from turning away from their promise. if possible ask them to give them in written. if everything goes well ,then airtel is the bb to go for. otherwise you dont have much options left. GOOD LUCK!
