I am almost a net addict person and I love to download a LOT. When I was in US, we had 8 Mbps unlimited plan from Comcast and trust me it was awesome. In India, things always come with more of cons than pros. At the moment I have Sify 512 Kbps Night and 256 Kbps day. But, more is better always.. lol. Everything above 1 Mb (Reliance & Tata Indicom data cards), this Airtel BB… all have data transfer limits with them. Dont know when we will start getting things with NO LIMITS.

they should make this plan unlimited at this price or atleast start giving 1,2 or 4 Mbps unlimited below 1000 Rs, limited data transfer plans r just a waste and r of no use to most of internet users, True broadband is only when there is no broadband cap and everything is unlimited, India still ranks 115th at internet speed and is far behind the developed world,shame on india, they should start giving high speed internet and stop giving limited plans,make it unlimited

No Download limit makes more sense. I’d rather have 1mbps unlimited than 16mbps with 20GB limit. Currently I download about 3-40 GB on my 512Plan. At 16mbps, I’m sure I can easily do 20GB in 4 days. So what do I do after the limit expires? Also 2mbps connection is really fast. What is it that you can do at 16mbps that you can’t do at 2mbps?

This boardband is not affordable one, means paying RS 2999 or RS 4999 per month is not at all affordable.
THEY SHOULD BRING DOWN THE COST FOR SURE….. EVEN THE UNLIMITED PACKAGES IS NOT THE HAPPENING ONE, other companies give it in RS,800 for unlimeted download….. Airtel should reduce its cost to make it work for longer

@Ashfame: the speed completely changes your surfing habit. For example, how many of us do visit youtube frequently? Rarely.. because we cant ‘experience’ videos as they keep buffering after every 3-5 seconds.

Needless to say, in such case.. no one would get ‘idea’ to start site like youtube.

Just my two cents.

Hey sure the unlimited is good, but is it worth the wait for downloading? For those who hate to wait, Airtel has launched the ‘Impatient Ones’ campaign introducing the 16mbps speed. It talks about the virtue of impatience through the stories of three young achievers.

You could see more of the campaign on our website and micro sites.
There is also a speed test on the website to check the speed of one’s broadband connection.

High Speed plans with download caps don’t make sense to me. They don’t make any difference in browsing speed, its the download speed that matters and if I have a cap on that, I would prefer a lower speed plan with unlimited usage. Would save me some bucks too. At present I download 10GB+ on my wireless connection in India and that just at 800bucks per month.
