Totally Limited Internet Access
Filed Under blog
I am at home, and using a limited internet connection where the bandwidth is monitored and I am paying about 14 cents for every MB of internet I use. Its a pain. I have to actually monitor how much bandwidth I have used every 10 mins. Google Video & YouTube is impossible and so is using Picasa.
I regret not taking up an unlimited connection. How I wish bandwidth was free, free as in free beer as well as freedom.
After facing the ridiculous prices over here, I am almost convinced to pay more to my ISP in Hyderabad, because his prices seem a lot more reasonable and it would help if I had a faster connection. When I say faster i mean upgrading to 128k from 64k.
Is there anyway I could have real broadband at affordable prices with no tab on bandwidth? Post a comment and tell me how much do you pay for internet at home, giving me the following details:
1. City, Country
2. Speed in terms of kbps or MBps
3. limited/unltd ? any offers/restrictions on time (for example night unltd)?
4. Cost per month in Indian rupees or US$
5. your download/upload records, if any.
I’ll give you my details:
1. Hyderabad, India
2. 64kbps
3. unlimited
4. 450 rupees per month (about 11US$)
5. Never really leeched enough to create records on this connection ;(
and
1. Bombay, India
2. 256 kbps
3. 100 MB limited bandwidth
4. 300 rupees per month (about 6 US$)
5. is it possible?
