Internet providers in Mumbai?

tom_fr

Hello,

While I am due to settle in Mumbai in September, I am in the process of gathering some info for my flat equipment. Regarding Internet access, I do not have much information at present. My laptop will be Wifi and Ethernet equipped so both a wifi and a traditionnal routers would do. I have been recommanded against BSNL but otherwise have no idea as to the good ISPs. My requirements are as such:
- no hour limit
- no transfer amount limit
- speed as high as possible

Indeed, I was quite puzzled to see at my friend's house in Delhi that broadband speeds are so low. I know that France is supposed to be quite state of the art (I have had a 24 Mbps connexion for three years now) but still, I am defintely looking for something at 2Mbps as a minimum (up to now, I could not find more than 512kbps for home use). Anyone knows if it is possible to get a corporate scheme for personal use, if need be?

Cheers,

Tom

Normally the MTNL broadband is 256 kbps which is nothing compared to what you are looking for but then it is priced very cheap too. I suppose you would want a ISDN line for your requirements though am not sure if it would fit the bill. Check with Tata Indicom - VSNL for their hi speed internet for further details. SiFy is another one which you might want to try but am not sure of their speeds. The BSNL service is similar to the MTNL schemes. I know I have not been much of help but then India is not really very good for hi speed access to the internet.

Cheers,
Aadil.
