In the past few months, a number of ISPs and mobile service operators have announced faster connections at speeds of 3, 10 to even 16 Mbps. While his relieved us finally seeing Ms instead of Ks in the units but still this isnt the real broadband yet. Pricing is still very high and ISPs continue to impose unrealistic caps ranging from 4 to 20 GB per month on plans , charging furthermore on exceeding them.

The term “unlimited” has been cleverly used by ISPs to fool the customers. While these plans can be very expensive (around 6000 INR per month) they still have the unfair “fair usage caps.” A cap of 80 GB per month on a 16 Mbps broadband can’t be justified when that can be used within a couple of days.

Its high time, we need to get real broadband in India. When will be able to stream full length HD movies and use remote access without any problems? When are we going to get what we paid for?
