Metronet (Bell Teleservices) in Bangalore - 10 Mbps for Rs. 1699

Posted: 11 Dec 2013 02:51 AM PST

I finally found an ISP (a local cable provider) with 10 Mbps UL Plans, well atleast with 100gb FUP & 1Mbps after for Rs. 1699. They call themselves Maruti Network & operate on 'Metronet' (Belltele.in) network, could not find much info on their website: www.metrotelecom.in but the local cable guy from Maruti network gave me this flyer:

MTNL Broadband VDSL2 User Experiences

Posted: 11 Dec 2013 02:36 AM PST

I wanted to start a new experience thread simply to discuss MTNL VDSL.

Some things to consider before/after taking a new VDSL connection

 

SNR margins (SNRM)
Below 9 dB : Poor experience with lots of HEC and CRC errors. Line will disconnect frequently.
9   - 11  dB : Ok but not ideal. Disconnections will be there if some unexpected variance is introduced by rains, humidity in the wire.
12 - 16  dB : Ideal and realistic value. Expect almost no disconnections as the line has more wiggle room for tolerating variances.
17 dB and up : God Mode. Lucky few get this on VDSL synced at 30 mbps and up. So far I have seen various stats and no one has reported this SNRM (That is because VDSL sync rates are always higher)

 

Higher you sync rate, lower the SNRM will be. Lower the SNRM, lower the connection reliability. Lower reliability means frequent disconnections. Hence ISP's have a setting in DSLAM to artificially increase SNRM value for a particular phone line. Hence you sync at lower rate and line automagically becomes stable.

 

Attenuation may not be that important after all. It reduces sync speeds over a distance but is not an indicator of connection reliability. (You can roughly calculate your line length from it. Do it here)

Apply for VDSL connection only if you are within half km. Otherwise you will get ADSL like sync rates.

I will update this entry with some of our findings. Since VDSL is somewhat new to India, this thread can help some early adopters.

 

Currently the speeds are decent for fast servers. But single streams are slow due to a bottleneck somewhere.

300 Rise of an Empire

Posted: 11 Dec 2013 02:32 AM PST

jTc4IPM.jpg

 

They are making a sequel of 300? :D


Official Website: http://goo.gl/H9fUO

 

Trailer/Preview releasing in a couple of hours. 


 

Based on Frank Miller's latest graphic novel Xerxes, and told in the breathtaking visual style of the blockbuster "300," this new chapter of the epic saga takes the action to a fresh battlefield—on the sea—as Greek general Themistokles attempts to unite all of Greece by leading the charge that will change the course of the war.

 

"300: Rise of an Empire" pits Themistokles against the massive invading Persian forces led by mortal-turned-god Xerxes, and Artemisia, vengeful commander of the Persian navy.

 

Warner Bros. Pictures and Legendary Pictures present, a Cruel and Unusual Films/Mark Canton/Gianni Nunnari Production, "300: Rise of an Empire." The action adventure stars Sullivan Stapleton ("Gangster Squad") as Themistokles and Eva Green ("Dark Shadows," "Casino Royale") as Artemisia. Lena Headey reprises her starring role from "300" as the Spartan Queen, Gorgo; Hans Matheson ("Clash of the Titans") stars as Aeskylos; David Wenham returns as Dilios, and Rodrigo Santoro stars again as the Persian King, Xerxes.

 

The film is directed by Noam Murro, from a screenplay by Zack Snyder & Kurt Johnstad, based on the graphic novel Xerxes, by Frank Miller. It is produced by Gianni Nunnari, Mark Canton, Zack Snyder, Deborah Snyder and Bernie Goldmann. Thomas Tull, Frank Miller, Stephen Jones and Jon Jashni serve as executive producers.

 

The creative filmmaking team includes director of photography Simon Duggan, production designer Patrick Tatopoulos, editor Wyatt Smith and costume designer Alexandra Byrne. The music is composed by Junkie XL.

 

"300: Rise of an Empire" will be distributed by Warner Bros. Pictures, a Warner Bros. Entertainment Company. This film is not yet rated.

Problems with Reliance Broadband Thunder Plans

Posted: 11 Dec 2013 02:29 AM PST

Just a poll to see the ratio of happy and sad customers. 

 

 

Thunder 699, Pune: Frequently getting logged out, cannot log back in immediately

Posted: 11 Dec 2013 02:26 AM PST

Hi,

 

Last month, I shifted from BSNL to Reliance after about 6 years. Opted for the Thunder 699 plan. While I'm downloading torrents it works fine, even at 10 hours at a stretch with very stable speeds of 220-250 KBps.

 

But when the connection is idle (no downloading/uploading of torrents), I get logged out randomly. Sometimes after 10 min, sometimes an hour. Not just that, even when I am browsing, or streaming a YouTube video, I get logged out at times. While that's not a problem, I cannot log back in immediately. The Reliance login page just doesn't open. I have tried the following:

 

- entering the IP address of the login page.

-trying different browsers

-trying 4 different "auto-login" software

 

Nothing works. I have to restart my router and my computer and wait for random amounts of time. 

 

What could be the issue?

 

Location: Pune

Router: D Link 2750u

OS: Win XP

 

Your suggestions/help would be really appreciated.

ISPs in and around Bapujinagar, Bangalore

Posted: 11 Dec 2013 02:23 AM PST

Hello everyone.

 

I've searched top to bottom for a decent ISP for my area (Bapujinagar/Byatrayanpura, Mysore Road, Bangalore) but so far I'm drawing a blank. Just to let you all know, I've tried

 

ACT - No Service in my area

Tikona - No Service

SpectraNet - No Service

BBNL - No Service

Railwire - No Service

DVoiS - No Service

Airtel - No service

 

I am using BSNL for the past 6 years and the service has always been terrible. But lately its gottten so horrible that i simply dont want to put up with its bullshit anymore. The connection doesnt stay up for more than 15 mins, the speed is terrible and the jackasses at the customer care or at their corporate offices don't know anything as to what the problem is.

 

I don't mind even if the service is a bit expsive, but what I'm looking for is a decent ISP that has very little connection outages/disconnects and a decent speed.

 

Does anyone know of any such service ? Getting really desperate now :(

Funny Videos, Images and Jokes

Posted: 11 Dec 2013 12:36 AM PST

MS staff

There was a pilot flying a small single engine charter plane, with a couple of very important executives on board. He was coming into Seattle airport through thick fog with less than 10m visibility when his instruments went out. So he began circling around looking for landmark. After an hour or so, he starts running pretty low on fuel and the passengers are getting very nervous. Finally, a small opening in the fog appears and he sees a tall building with one guy working alone on the fifth floor. The pilot banks the plane around, rolls down the window and shouts to the guy "Hey! Where am I?" To this, the solitary office worker replies "You're in a plane." The pilot rolls up the window, executes a 275 degree turn and proceeds to execute a perfect blind landing on the runway of the airport 5 miles away. Just as the plane stops, so does the engine as the fuel has run out.

The passengers are amazed and one asks how he did it. "Simple" replies the pilot, "I asked the guy in that building a simple question. The answer he gave me was 100 percent correct but absolutely useless, therefore that must be Microsoft's support office and from there the airport is just a while away."

Is Windows a virus?

No, Windows is not a virus. Here's what viruses do:
They replicate quickly Okay, Windows does that

Viruses use up valuable system resources, slowing down the system as they do so okay, Windows does that

Viruses will, from time to time, trash your hard disk Okay, Windows does that, too

Viruses are usually carried, unknown to the user, along with valuable programs and systems Sigh... Windows does that, too

Viruses will occasionally make the user suspect their system is too slow (see 2) and the user will buy new hardware Yup, that's with Windows, too

Until now it seems Windows is a virus but there are fundamental differences: Viruses are well supported by their authors, are running on most systems, their program code is fast, compact and efficient and they tend to become more sophisticated as they mature

So, Windows is *not* a virus

Yenthiran – First look!September 05, 2008Shankar's dream project Robot is already a hot cake among the media, with news updates coming out thick and fast. The latest scoop is that the movie might be titled Yenthiran and not Yenthiram. There is also news about the photo shoot which took place. The first look of Yenthiran, which will be released to the media soon, will have a completely shaved, suave looking Rajinikanth in designer

sun glasses and a metal cap. And the highlight of the poster would a red rose that the Superstar will be holding.
The poster also carries a byline – The Robot!
There seems to a different set of posters designed for Aishwarya Rai.
Scoop sent by an unanonymous inside media person.

Shahrukh up in arms against Robot September 04, 2008Shahrukh Khan had initially planned to produce and act in Shankar’s Robot. But this plan did not take off and the offer finally landed on superstar Rajinikanth. With the film being made in Tamil, the director decided to opt for a name change to get the tax sops announced by the Tamil Nadu government for films with Tamil names. It is now believed that Robot will be rechristened Yenthram.

Posted Image


Meanwhile, Shahrukh’s production house Red Chilies has created a stir in the film industry by registering about nine names that have the word Robot in it. Director Shankar had plans to simultaneously make it in Hindi because Ashwarya Rai-Bachchan plays the female lead. With Shah Rukh’s title registering act Robot in Hindi could suffer a major blow. Wonder what the star is up to!
