[QUOTE="hatter, post: 565458, member: 16249"] 1- MTNL is great for your general downloading. But for online gaming it sux big time. If you want to game online, stick with Airtel. 2- two kms distance from telephone exchange is fine. Also, because you are going for 256kbps plan, distance should not pose a problem. It's only when you go near 1.5mbps or 2mbps or above that the distance become an important factor. 3- If the plan costs Rs 599 a month expect to pay 599+around 50 rs tax. (If you are getting modem from MTNL, rent is extra). Basically, MTNL puts broadband charges under Other Charges in your telephone bill. tax is calculated on the total amount of the bill. 4- With MTNL expect to deal with a non-existent customer care. Earlier it was 24/7 phone support but now I think it's 9 to 5 thing. If you call MTL CC @ 1504 at midnight you will be greeted with "you are in queue, your waiting period is *** seconds." The auto reply will keep on repeating it till morning if you care to hold onto your phone till then. :@ Though it doesn't matter much because even when it was 24/7, your problem would be looked into only next day. If you have any serious problems with your connection, best is to talk to your area manager or better walk into your nearest telephone exchange and create a ruckus. Good thing about MTNL is that even top babus are quite easily accessible and usually when they move you can rest easy. :) 5- While connection speed is usually OK, in a month, expect downtime of anything from 6 to 48 hours [/QUOTE]
