Sir,
I am Ashish.
I am a standard high school student.N i am intrested in telecommunications very much.My father too works in Bsnl.
I have been collecting information abt Every Bsnl Internet Services since 2006 when i was in 5th.I live in Orissa.Raurkela.A busy developing town in which Bsnl is very famous for its internet services.
N till now i have gather enough knowlege that i can sure answer anything abt any details of Bsnl Services.
As per my surveys till now by blogging,surfing,voting post in my websites.Talking to people n youths till now i am really happy to know that they think Bsnl is the best operator n mobile service provider here.
They have also commented though bsnl broadband n 3g is affordable but their high speed data packages r still at very high cost.Mainly abt broadband.Though their unlimted packages r good as 700rs with 256 kbps bandwith n 900rs with 512kbps bandwith they r still not enough here.Coz as bsnl had promised that it will provide cheap high speed unlimted internet packages soon.Abt in 2009.It was declared.
But till now theres no news abt anything abt increasing the bandwith.But i got to know by self survey that bsnl had improved its bandwith lines so these months by turning to different plans i got experienced that its true that the speed has increased a bit.As in 700plan we r getting 512kbps bandwith n in 900rs we r getting 768 kbps bandwith.
Its good that there speed has increased but it was got to know that bsnl will increse it lines as 30gb pps.
So that it could give out more fast bandwiths.
Now a days its got to know that bsnl 3g is tilting bsnl broadband.N is more fast in low rates.As by through email i got to know that bsnl has 3.5g network.That gives 3.6 mbps in roaming condition in a HSDCP 3.5g cell.Thats fantastic.Though its cheap n reliable.I n my whole group has switched to it only with our cells.
As we all r staying in a bsnl towers close area we r getting fabulus speed n network but by moving a km far only the network gets weak n our so speed bsnl 3g dosnt give us much speed.Though we know that bsnl 3g beaming towers r still under improvement we hope that it will get enough develop that 3g towers will support to much farer areas.As these towers r using 2g tracker beamers for 3g network.We hope that more powerful emiters will be used.N hope bsnl will afford it a low cost with the an eco frndly graded sticker.We also hope that bsnl will improve its wired broadband services prices n speed so that students like us who want to be connect to this world of internet could get high speed unlimited broadband at cheap cost.
So that even ever people here could get high speed data even the poor rural areas here who has not much bsnl conectivity n networks might too get India’s best communication services by its best communication network operator.
