Airtel Broadband:512k unlimited

Tags: , , , , , ,

I was lucky to have the plan migrated over the weekend. Is it really earth shattering; much like the “big O”? No isn’t. But definitely a lot faster than what I was forced to put up with. I have noticed a weird thing. They have not touched the uploads speeds at all. I am getting slower uploads but faster downloads. This makes it useless for ; I believe. Still, something is better than nothing!

Live streaming has become a lot more smoother and has given me a lot more options to switch between channels. I don’t own a TV but with increasing online presence of the TV majors, I’d be soon watching the “saas bahu” serials online. No, I am not kidding. They are a total timepass!

Update: For the first time ever, I have been able to watch You tube videos uninterruptedly. I have been watching IBN Live video streams; as good as the broadcast quality on my ! The wonders of technology and the indeed the sense of awe. But wait a sec. Did someone say that in Japan they are bored of 100 mbps speeds? We are in a bullock cart stage as far as technology is concerned.
