    He already has a lot of posts , & doesnt need to increase post count :)
    Anyway, 512kbps for 3500 , is quite a lot .

    I have 64 on my desktop & 512 on my laptop ,
    64 costs me - 500 - unlimited usage
    512 costs me - 500 - 1.5 GB a month , night 8-8 free, sunday free.

    So , unlimited 512 should cost around 1500-2000.

    Which city do you stay in ?

    i dont have anyone to talk around rite now, i stopped using messengers.
    i do not go out much or have lot of friends currently.

    so i decided why not take opinions from here where i have lot of friends to talk every day.

    is it bad to ask for a opinion. infact it increased ur one post :p
    had i not posted messages it wont have increased ur post. ur thinking negetive , but not the positive part of it.

    be positive not -ve. i have little bit of experience here and i want to make sure i remain active in discussions and talk to every one.

    if that is a sin u can surely offend me not a problem.


    me from mumbai

    Five Network is the one to which im shifting now,

    i tried with sify but the guy who provides sify connection has problem with his cables and wireless network, there is always problem with ping.

    last 5 days have been so hectic for me that my eyes have hurt a lot, i had to sit in front of pc and wait for 5 mins to make one message, still ive tried to discuss a bit.

    im ok let him take 3.5k i do not have any other alternative presently

    ive reviews
    sify
    mtnl
    reliance
    airtel
    tata indicom usb

    none of them suit up currently.

    Tata Indicom Plug 2 Surf is way too good. I use it and I love it.

    Also a friend I know pays 1800 for a 5 GB - 512 connection ....night free.

    So I think 3500 is like too much!

    Are we talking about Shared Connection or Dedicated one? If this is shared connection 3500 INR is very high and reason could be Mumbai is an expensive city (Quoting Netist).

    What download and Upload speed you would get with this connection ??

    I pay Rs. 950/Month for 256 kbps connection (Unlimited Download)
    So ofcourse 3500 is very much for a 512 kbps connection
