    I would not buy airtel connection as their security is too low that using a simple trick you can get anyone's pass..

    I am using a Local ISP , with a 512Kbps connection , working on PPPOE i.e. Ethernet , and I get 60kbps downloads and upto 58kbps uploads. and no complaints what so ever, using them from last two years.. Just for Rs 900 per month and No Service Tax at all.

    Yep Airtel Broadband is good

    Download Speed for 512 kbps connection = 512/8 = 64 kBps
    And probably same Upload speed

    I have heard good reviews about Airtel Broadband so I think you can first try them for 1 month then go for long term

    i am using airtel's 256 plan. they have good customer support, usually solve ur problem quickly.

    But their site is pathetic. you can't pay bills online plus their login never works.

    but one thing that i am really happy about is every morning for 2 hours i get a download speed of 350kb/s:D don't know the reason but it is happening from lst one month......

    and i download tons of data in these two hours:D

    I am not from India but I have used a dial-up with your specified speed years back.
    And I have had no problems with surfing, browsing, upload/download and happy with it.

    So i can say the speed is good and will not irritate you.

    I am kinda afraid of Private companies like Airtel, lot of hidden charges. I am really scared of them when my friend got a bill of Rs 12000($300) for a month. He misunderstood the plan and they charged him Rs 1.5 for every extra MB he downloaded.

    Do not change it.. BSNL will drop the price for 256kbps unlimited plan to RS 700/month only.
