Just got this from Anat!

Sify Broadband new rates are finally somewhat reasonable

If they do not make changes that, I fear they might make in the near future though. The new shared packages are somehow reasonable to the users but CHEAP BROADBAND is still a dream. Looking at the popularity of these packages, more shared accounts are available…

The catch with the 64 kbps account is that you cannot use the account for more than six hrs a day. If you do, you lose 1-day worth of connectivity. Well, 48 kbps unlimited with unlimited time period for 815 sounds pretty ok to me considering it is in fact the same Sify Broadband. Also, the fact that the speeds here are minimum and can go up depending upon the number of users online also helps.

Shared 64 kbps+ *	Unltd	1	998	1100
Shared 48 kbps+	Unltd	1	739	815
Shared 32 kbps+	Unltd	1	558	615

Sify though would do better if they can be a little more comprehensive. If I use the 64kbps connection for 24 hrs, will that still mean I lose 1 day or would that mean I lose 3 days of connectivity! Also, what does commercial usage of net means? If I use the net to do web publishing and earn money on ads, is that commercial usage? On the other hand, what if I do some freelance work? I guess running cyber café and earning money by selling net usage would come under commercial terminology. Because I know people who use the same shared packages in offices like travel agency… if freelancing is commercial, that would become commercial too! right?

I am not sure.

Also, this package is also pretty delicious:

128 kbps	Night Unltd	1	326	360

Just that I cannot see any information on what Night Unlimited means… 8pm to 8am or 10pm to 5am! I am not sure. Maybe the pages on the Sify Mall would be more informative!

Ouch, nope they are not. This is the screenshot of the package that I currently have. The revised price is 615. But the pages on the Sify Mall show this:

Sify Broadband New Packages

Again a bit late on updating the pages… Right?

I just hope that the 6 hrs usage clause is not implemented on the 32+ and 48+ speed packages. At 6 hours a day, it no longer remains UNLIMITED.

    maybe they have stopped concentrating on updating pageranks. instead they update pages in their cache. its good for the net. i was tired of people selling pageranks and well trying to behave as if they were god if they had a pagerank of 7 or 8. :)
