Simplifying Tata Sky – Package Calculator

Posted: 04 May 2014 02:48 AM PDT

I recently got Tata Sky and I love it. It is definitely better than the ‘dabba’ cable.
However Tata Sky has one major flaw – Channel Packages.
Normally cable operators charge you a fixed monthly fee and in return, you get (theoretically) all the channels.
But Tata Sky has this concept of ‘Packages’. In theory it is supposed to give the control in the hands of the customer. You select the channels which you want and pay only for those channels.
But in reality, the system is hopelessly complicated.
Being the simple guy that I am, I decided to make an app which would do all the number crunching for me and tell me the best (read Cheapest) plan for the channels which I select.
Introducing ‘Tata Sky Package Calculator’:
You do have a fair idea of which channels you watch. Simply select those channels in the app and when you have selected all the channels which you want, hit the ‘Continue >>‘ button.
The app try all possible combinations of 4 main packages + 12 regional packs + 14 Add On packs + individual channels and will pick the one with the lowest cost.
If you are happy with the plan, you can also send an email to Tata Sky reps to tell them to modify your package form the app itself. Just make sure, you have your ‘Subscriber No.’ in hand.
*I don’t work for Tata Sky nor is this an official Tata Sky app. I made it for myself and it worked. I’m sharing it in the hope that others may find it useful.
Remember with great power comes great responsibility!

16th Lok Sabha General Elections of India

Posted: 04 May 2014 02:40 AM PDT

General Elections for electing 16th Loksabha members would happen in 1 year from now. It may even happen within 1 year as well if situation arises like current govt decides to call early elections or looses majority if coalition partners pull off support (which is less likely). So who could it be forming new govt? BJP or Congress? NDA or UPA? Narendra Modi or Rahul Gandhi? Sushma Swaraj or Manmohan Singh? Arun Jaitley or P. Chidambaram? What impact Arvind Kejriwal would have on these elections? And finally will any 3rd front succeed in forming govt at Centre?

SC makes it clear: Govt will have to ban Porn

Posted: 04 May 2014 01:47 AM PDT

 

The Supreme Court on Monday issued notices to various ministries of the central government on a PIL seeking modification of internet laws to make watching pornography a non-bailable offence.

A bench of Chief Justice Altamas Kabir and Justices A R Dave and Vikramjit Sen issued notice on Kamlesh Vaswani's petition saying existing laws had failed to prohibit proliferation of internet pornography and alleged that it was affecting the younger generation and resulting in increasing sexual assaults on women.

 

Appearing for the petitioner, senior advocate M N Krishnamani said the government urgently needed to take pro-active steps to block all pornographic websites as they were affecting the "peace of mind, health and wellness, happiness and human potential".

Posted: 04 May 2014 01:40 AM PDT

Hello All, Im having BSNL dataone type 4 (UTStarcomm WA3002G4 router) which comes with 4 lan ports and wifi. Now I would like to use it for Reliance BroadBand connection as it is the only connection available in my area. I was able to configure it and use. But what actually I want is to use it for multiple systems which previously I was to able to do with same router for Airtel,Bsnl connections. Problem with Reliance is that userid,password details are to given in browser always. So is there any that it can be given in router directly and thereby using the router with mulitple connections. Regards, krishna.

i think u had mentioned the reason as i posted in 1 thread that " admin wont see anything" and i have valid point for that too.. as you were not checking who is posting what and also there were double threads on same topics........

this is disgusting and most bad part of IBF i have ever faced.. now i am fedup with the ADMIN not with any members ....... this is the bad thing i had seen upto now.... every other member can use any languages and insult , fight and still get away but i have been stopped from posting for 2 days........

but now i will show my messages..

I have opted out of IBF for the following reason:
admin sees everything... but is waste, just bans one who does not anything bad.
Date the ban will be lifted: 1st November 2007, 10:30 PM
Date of my return....... NEVER to IBF


good bye and enjoy with fakes...... you dont deserve useful posts..

Why cant be Dlink Modem used as a Dedicated Router?

Posted: 04 May 2014 12:42 AM PDT

Hello Everyone.

 

I am working with BSNL as a Broadband technician for the last 2 years and ive came aross all kind of modem+routers but the most peculiar i find belong to Dlink.

 

Whenever i try to pair Dlink DSL modem+router (4 port) with any other service provider like Airtel or our local ISP Ortel i find that most of the time the Dlink fails to work.

 

Recently one of my clients wanted wireless capabilities for his Ortel Cable Internet . and brought a Dlink 2750u Dual Antenna Modem +Router (4 port with DSL, its a new model not the older one). Upon configuring the device i found that only the LAN sharing was working and the wireless was not working.

So, i brought another Dlink 2750u from the office (a 3 year older  model, single antenna). After following all the steps exactly as before this time the wireless was working but not the Lan.

 

I called up Dlinks customer support and they told 2750u is only for BSNL. i have worked with all kind of modems from a whole different range of companies ranging from TP-LInk to Digisol to our own BSNL modem. there is no problems configuring them as a dedicated router. why does the problem exists with Dlinks modem?

 

Or is there anything specific i have to do with Dlinks modem? have anyone else faced any kind of similar problem?

 

Would be grateful if anyone can help me. i really need to answer  my clients haha

 

Just for a quick reference here is how i configured them:

Lan cable from cable modem to dlink modem- bringing dlinks ip range in accordance  to the cable modems ip. DHCP, NAT, tried both enabling and disabling them. no effect.

Do i need to do anything with the "Layer 2 Interface"  or "WAN service" ?

Reliance Broadband Questions

Posted: 04 May 2014 12:32 AM PDT

Dear fellow sufferers,

 

I am currently using the Reliance Thunder 1099 plan. I get frequent outages, and last month I requested termination. Retention team promised a lot and I decided to try it out for a little longer, and while outages were reduced somewhat, the service quality is far from satisfactory. For example, here are my current ping stats:

 

12 packets transmitted, 12 packets received, 0.0% packet loss

round-trip min/avg/max/stddev = 123.512/370.001/900.000/330.386 ms

 

Questions:

 

1. Are these normal, or is there some way to improve these? Whats the best way to reach someone who can help?

 

2. I'm sick of having to login everyday. With my previous BSNL connection, I had setup the BSNL modem in bridge mode and my Airport Extreme router in PPPoE, which worked very reliably. Is this possible with Reliance?

 

3. I'm currently based in Rajkot, Gujarat. Are there any other internet service providers I should consider, if I decide to switch?

 

Any help/advice is much appreciated!

ACT Broadband - Application and Installation Experience

Posted: 04 May 2014 12:25 AM PDT

Hello Forum Members,

I joined this forum to share my experience with ACT Broadband. I recently moved into my new apartment and prior to moving in I did a lot of research on the internet service providers in the area since I do a lot of work from home. Luckily I found out that ACT Broadband has coverage in my area and I called them up. On 2nd of November (Chota Diwali) there person came to collect the documents and payment at whichever time I specified. He very clearly said that since that was a Diwali weekend, my connection will get activated latest by Wednesday. He also mentioned that my apartment allready has a DP installed hence it would not be a problem at all.

Now comes, 5th of October, Tuesday. I get a call early in the morning from the installation guy from ACT asking for my available time for the wiring. He was very prompt and punctual. It took a total of 15 mins to complete the wiring and he tested the connection and gave the demo. He also said that latest by 6th my connection will get activated and it did.

I have not yet got a chance to test the full potential of the connection, however I can say one thing for sure, after reading multiple reviews in this forum, I was skeptical about the initial response of the company, but to my surprise, they were really well behaved and prompt in their response.

 

Total time it took for me to get the connection: 4 days

Total calls made to ACT: 3 (including calling the sales guy)

 

I will post review about the speed and QOS later.

 

PS: I am on the 15 MBps / 40 GB plan.

 

Later homies

Call for end to caste base quotas!

Posted: 03 May 2014 10:54 PM PDT

Congress leader Janardan Dwivedi calls for end to caste-based quotas — timesofindia.indiatimes.com This guy is looking at a political suicide :tongue:  

In 1950, the Constitution of India provided for caste-based reservation in government jobs, but only for a decade. The idea was to then observe what social progress it had delivered and re-evaluate what measures were needed for further progress. The idea was never to perpetuate a tyranny of inherited identities. Unfortunately, as caste-based reservation degenerated into a crass tool of electoral instrumentalism, it became anathema for political parties to debate it honestly. Congress general secretary Janardan Dwivedi has made a radical statement in this context, that it is time to dismantle caste-based quotas. Reservation should now be based on people's economic condition. Dwivedi correctly points out that the prevailing formula does not benefit really needy persons, with all its privileges corralled by a creamy layer instead. Even more boldly, he urges Rahul Gandhi to take the lead in dismantling this dysfunctional system, which may have bolstered the boundaries of caste more than the ramparts of equality. Of course his party politics have hitherto been tied to quota expansionism, including by pushing for caste-based reservations in job promotions. Dwivedi's point is that when UPA-III is being talked about, Rahul should show Congress has the courage to replace failed, illusory policies with future-oriented instruments of justice.

Banned Forum Member Thread

Just a FYI. Google Singh has been banned from this forum for breaking one of the rules of the forum .

Personal Attack on another member.

His last message which I accidently deleted was:


Ok Guys, I have finally decided to leave this forum. Reason is that my posting rights have been taken away without informing me and without letting me know the reason. I feel there is* a lot of bias on this forum by one of the senior member cum moderator.



I dont feel that I said anything wrong and I feel have been delibrately targetted. I have been a victim of bias before as well. I think some people here can never learn to accept their mistakes. Freedom of expression is absent here.

As a result I have deceided to pull out of this forum.

I would like to thank the members like Bhaskar, ultravires,surjeet,gauravtyagi and many others here who have helped me a lot

Bye Friends

Quite funny I would say...

TDS Meter from Ebay India

Posted: 03 May 2014 10:43 PM PDT

Another Tool/Gadget to finger my D.I.Y. Itch,

Will be Using it to monitor RO Water and would skip the service contracts, cause spares are easily available now a days

and for those who know how it works, can easily save a couple of thousand a year.

 

Basic operation is, You can check TDS level twice a month, The least the reading is, purer the water is.

my current reading is 21 after 1 year of usage. I am not spending 4.5k on contract this time.

 

New Filters and membrane installed would give readings, near 0(Zero) while normal home usage of 1 yr. should not be more

than 15-25. and if you change the sediment filter in 6 months, your membrane would last twice its normal life of 1 yr as suggested by companies, but all that counts is the TDS Count, So watch and act.

 

new filter set would be around Rs.900 ( 3 filters)

One Decent Filter membrane would be Rs.1200-1400 

and companies charge 4K + for annual AMC so what they would cover extra is PUMP, and that's only Rs.1000 tops, so all in all even in worst case scenario (Blown Pump) you can save Rs.1000 and if pump doesn't needs to be replaced you save Rs.2000+ a year.

other parts are considered as consumables and would be charged by AMC providers so its out of equation for D.I.Y. cost.

Last pic from phone cam before it went down for 2 days :-)

 

Bought Pocket Digital TDS Meter from this seller delivered a day earlier than ebay estimated time.

Paid Rs.550/- after ebay discount coupon.
