But it's more related to the net :P

Have a problem guys.

I have a net connection from a local service provider.

Have been given a static IP and have to do a web login before I can surf the net. My plan is UL. There's no time or bandwidth cap. I can access my account settings & all's well there.

The problem is I am getting signed out every 10-15 mins. Speed goes down to zero and cant access the net. Takes me to the login page if I try to open any site !

I checked my settings & everything's seems well. Is there something I could be missing ? Because the guy says everything's perfect from his side ! :|

Help ! :puspa:

Guys, I'm planning on shifting to the 512 UL plan in BSNL. Is it any good? :huh:

 

Go for the 600kbps u/l plan from Reliance. I am currently using that plan. It's a combo offer with 600kbps u/l internet with no FUP and free calls worth Rs. 50 (I think). On European servers I get a ping around 200 for Quake live.

 

It's also a bit cheaper than BSNL @ Rs. 700 (650+tax) per month.

too late.....I have applied for it and it's changing from sep 1st! Plus I'll be getting a 20% concession from BSNL, so making my UL connection bill 600 Rs. per month :bigyellowgrin:

 

It's via ethernet/LAN. No modem/router in between ! :|

:/

Did you check for any options in your login page? Also, ask your ISP to change your connection from manual login to 'instant connect'. Like plug and play. Manual login is stone age old :P

They can't. Apparently it's primary use is for volume based logins, and they can't disable it.

And even though it's stone age, it's 1MBPS UL, with 300 GB FUP !! :lol: Max one can download over 1 MBPS is 316 GB over a month, so it's practically UL !! :puspa:

I don't care even if they make me dance for it, but can't stand those shitty 15-20 GB FUPs ! :|

Nopes. I don't have my PS3 here. (

 

That's a fine plan you've got there :good:

Pity it's giving you problems.

I'm sure that it's got to do with some login setting. Your ISP should be the one looking into it.

That guy's saying things are perfect at his end :(

Worked from yday night to 5pm today. Came home & found it to be disconnected ! :|

Let's see how today goes ! :|

Dude. How did u get a 20% concession?

It's got something to do with my dad being a govt. employee dude.

Then pester him to get things right at your end. It sounds as if you are the one at fault here when actually, your ISP should be held responsible for that. If you don't pester the guys, you'll never get something done in India. I learnt that from BSNL :bigyellowgrin:

Guys, has anyone actually got FUP'ed? I see so many people crying about FUP and its limitations, but I yet have to see anyone being affected by it, even when they have hugely gone over the threshold.

I did...my FUP limit was 50Gb and I crossed it this month..according to my ISP's site, I have done over 100Gb of data transfer for the month already...

My posts over the last several pages have been invisible to you or something?

How much does it cost for the airtel 4mbps connection? Is it u/l?

I just got an Airtel 4 mbps. There are different plans, just check the website. It is unlimited, but if you cross the FUP, the speed is reduced to 256k.

 

I took the connection so that I could host games as well - turns out that Airtel provides a 1:8 upload/download ratio (called up customer care). Even with downloads at > 4mbps, I only get upload speeds ~700-750k.

Did it actually go down to 256kbps after the FUP limit was crossed? Good friend of mine has this connection but he never seems to get his speed reduced even after crossing the 25gb limit. :O
