Switching from BSNL Broadband to Airtel Broadband

[jason29]

Oh i see, i misunderstood it 😀

 

[igloo]

you didn't read it properly, they've mentioned "and/or"
so 30min condition apply if you breach 300min limit.

ah right. i doubt my dad calls more than 5 numbers from that phone.

15 mins incoming is only needed if you are making calls to 100's of unique numbers.
friends and family won't cross that limit easily, so 15 mins incoming is not required i guess.

anyway I checked with Airtel, somehow my allocated plan is not 16mbps its, 999 one, with 10GB Data only.
my kids have consumed 7+ GB's on youtube, Damn Doraemon :-(
I've a extra router with DD-WRT running already, I would experiment to Make a NEW SSID with Limited speed for kids in coming days.

My billing date is near so I would need to upgrade, should I place a request now or do it just before the new billing cycle.

Sushubh : I just bought a Motorolla Cordless, it was 1525/- and Paytm gave 550+ cashback on it.😛arty:

let's hope it does not mess up your home wireless network.

I think we will see many switches from BSNL broadband to Airtel broadband in the coming days?

unlikely. people are on bsnl because it works for them. they would have moved to airtel if bsnl was not working out for them.

 

[jason29]

I can agree with you that, as i am BSNL user too... lot of bad times still i am sticking with them :worried:

Hmmmm

With DD-WRT it was easy to do
I just set up my TP-Link MR-3420 as secondary router Connected to Beetel one of Airtel.

To keep it simple i used another SSID and didn't used it on repeater mode.

Any device connecting thru it is limited to 500kbps
I can always setup exception which i would do for my phone and Laptop.

Thank god No more doraemon on 720p on kids phones [emoji23] [emoji23] [emoji23]

Got the cordless delivered today.
Its cutie cutie small cordless handset.

At Rs.950 after Paytm cash its very useful.

Haven't used it much.
Will post review by weekend.

You can easily setup wifi to channel other than 1 which is preferred by most cordless. Also plug is Indian?

There's no interference currently.
Yes the A.C adapter is Indian pin.
