Tata Dial-Up Experience and Eternal Wait for Telecom Revolution
It has been a topsy-turvy experience with Tata’s even before I became a customer! The fact is that I have been on BSNL dial up for the past 6 years without any respite from their lousy services. I have a reason to believe that all the talk [...]
After enjoying super broadband service in Singapore last 5 years. Recently when I returned to India, I wanted a broadband connection at home. To my horror situation here is so pathetic!! In my area Aundh pune it seemed to have only one service provider iqara (monopoly). Sify wasn’t there, BSNL started DSL just now. So [...]
BSNL Broadband Buying Decision
Much has been talked of the BSNL’s broadband, which clearly sucks. I wish I had clear indicators to help me decide about the buying decision. However, that was not to be and hence I decided to write for the same. In one sentence about the buying decision. Do not buy it.

Broadband at Rs. 500 from BSNL-MTNL
Dialup users in the metros would be happy to know that Government bodies BSNL and MTNL would be rolling out their broadband services from the 15th of next month. They are planning to offer packages with speeds of 256kbps with rates starting from Rs. 500. However, no details are available [...]
If I was angry with Sify Broadband for blocking NNTP servers, I think I would have to thank them for leaving IRC for now. Considering I use IRC a lot more than NNTP.

Talk about being a broadband [...]
Internet over cable at 360 rupees for a 512 kbps line from Tata!
This is pretty awesome. Tata has started to offer Broadband Internet over Cable in Mumbai. The project is planned to spread to around 30 cities in the coming 2 years. The Tata Indicom Cable link from Chennai to Singapore is currently being worked [...]
I just got informed that Hutch has arrived in Chandigarh and is offering GRPS internet connectivity at 99 bucks a month. Which I totally find unbelievable. Airtel is offering same connectivity at 600 bucks. Since, I do have a GRPS enabled mobile handset (Panasonic GD 88), Why not use it instead of Sify Broadband which [...]
A friend who is already using Tata Indicom phone services has his outgoing restricted since August 12 due to lack of payment of dues which were paid on August 10. 24 hrs, it is still blocked.
A friend who wanted a new connection got the instrument. Waited for 2 days for it to get activated. Then [...]
My friend lives in Gurgaon. And believe me he lives in one of the better areas of Gurgaon. And he does not have any option for a permanent connectivity. The local cable guy sucked so much that he ended up using his reliance phone most of the time to get connected to the net. So, [...]
