is it possible to get postpaid and prepaid BSNL broadband on the same modem and line?

ALright I have been sniffing through the BSNL website. There are 2 plans which appeal to a heavy downloader like me..

http://www.bsnl.co.in/service/new_BB...hspeed_lim.htm

http://www.bsnl.co.in/service/prepaid_BB.htm

The first plan is that of a 24MBps plan with 250 GB data limit per month for 6999 Rs.

I am thinking of using this plan most of the time but once the 250 data limit hits, I am thinking of switching over to prepaid for the rest of the month until the 250 data limit resets for the next month..

However, am I right in thinking that you can't have prepaid AND postpaid broadband plans on the same modem and same phone line?

But let's say I have 2 phone lines. I am gonna use one phone line for the high-speed 250GB data limit plan and the other phone line for the pre-paid plan.

When the data limit been hit for the first plan, I will switch my modem to the second phone line and use the prepaid plan to last me till the next month?

So basically, it is one modem but 2 phone lines for 2 separate broadband plans?

Unless it is possible to get 2 separate broadband plans on the same phoneline and the same modem.. this is the way to go for a heavy downloader like me.. isn;t it? What do you think?

you cant have 2 plans on a single phone line.
you can use 1 modem for 2 phone lines provided both the line connections are compatible with same modem.

you can go for a cheaper unlimited data plan but you will have to compromise on the speed.

The daily nightly build of a rather interesting piece of software used to be about 600-700 MB for both PPC and Intel;and that was way high as a download still, I couldnt match your download. What are you downloading which would exceed 250GB every month ?

Say it ain't so Joe !!!!

[ 2 plans, two numbers, one line, one computer, one tethered phone to firewire, inverse multiplexed - Sure you can do it. on the Mac ... or Macbuntu ]
