Hmm...I have few things to say:
1. See if you can arrange an address proof, if you can wait for a month then you should devote this wait to take a BSNL connection. Yeah they have long waiting sometimes. If you apply next week - they may take another 3-4 weeks to hook it up.
2.
Tata Indicom said they will be available by next month
- No credibility in this statement. They give bull shit all time. They may come they may not come. I do not suggest to rely on what they say. Rule out this option.
3. Is tata indicom worth taking
- Definitely yes! If it works - if works fantastically!
4.Speed Requirements
- 384 Kpbs will not stream youtube videos smoothly. I heard dudes in this forum claiming you need atleast 1MBps for that! I have 256kbps and I dun have them smooth. I have told you about my experience, now you decide if you wish to take 384 or 512 (you will find even 512 is not enuf for videos
😛, but that does not mean you will not see any difference between 384 and 512!).
5. Reliance Winmax - I want to go on and on if you give me a chance to curse them. I had the worst possible experience with them. I wanted them to come and kiss my crying ass. I have not seen more dumber technicians than what Reliance has employed. Basically I have my distrust on this technology they have come up with. Its still in its beta days (a debatable topic, no offense to its lovers). Its no way close to
ADSL (BSNL / Airtel or Tata) technology. And add to that their way of distributing the connections - through intermediates. If something goes wrong no body takes responsibility. Keep them as your last resort.
I will stop here. May you get your connection soon
🙂.
