BSNL Broadband to offer 2 Mbps connection
The great news for all the BSNL BroadBand Customers is that its going to offer high speed internet broadband connectivity to its subscribers. According to The Hindu Report, BSNL Telecom Service which is offering a maximum of 256 kbps internet connectivity to its subscribers will offer upto 2mbps connectivity.
Mr.Maran has announced this at the India Telecom 2006 conference. The main bit is that BSNL would offer high speed broadband at the existing price.
Transforming the telecom connectivity into a network to provide seamless access between the knowledge creators/converters and knowledge consumers.
- A. P. J Abdul Kalam at India Telecom 2006 Conference.
I personally feel that this great upgrade is silently impacting the Vision 2020 of India. Maybe people who are using 256kbps connection already enjoyed downloading movies, games and other stuffs although they have some download limit but using the no count timings.
This upgrade will surely influence other Internet Service providers in India and hurray i think my service provider will do something to compete BSNL. But recently a French telecom and internet service provider decided to provide 2GB per second connectivity to all its customers.
Anyways this was just a great news for users like us,now the chance of exploring Internet has widenup and surely webmasters like me love to see traffic in our site.

Yeah, The report looks authentic for me, but it will surely take more time to come. Say next 5 - 6 years or so. By that time the world will be enjoying 107 GBps

5-6 years is much wider and some sources said that bsnl began offering 2mbps in Mumbai and Delhi it seems, reported that they can a 300kbps download speed and 256 kbps upload speed with bandwidth speed of 2000kbps

Wow.. Good to know. Then I think it may not take any longer. BTW at this speed we could download a CD in just about a hour.
Cool

Guys,
I stay in Koramangala, tel 25527936, bandwidth has not upgraded from 256Kbps to 2Mbps. I have D-Link GLB-502T with Netgear. Is someone getting 2Mbps from koramangala exchange? Also, do I need to change some setting on ADSL modem?

Sankar Anand on 06. May 2007 at 6:18 pm
actually there wont be any difference in browsing but to confirm that you have upgraded try downloading a file more than 90mb and check the download time… it will reliably be faster..
you don’t have to change u r adsl modem in this case.. if you cannot experience the download speed change then its due that your location koramangala in bangalore will be updated soon…
