Ufff.... one *more* ilugd guy from Patparganj. At this rate very soon we can have Patparganj LUG meets. ;) I am from Patparganj too(Kanungo). Even though I have a different service provider - Select Internet in Madhu vihar. > > > > > It is used by several small time cable Internet providers in DElhi and > > around India.

To be precise, their whole network consisting of 100+ clients are all connected on @#$$ hubs. So even if I am not using the net, i get 256kbps+ of peak traffic hitting my NIC card, sometimes causing my network card to complain saying "too much traffic". Too many levels of hubs (i have 3+ hubs between my machine and the edge router) causes terrible losses at peak times. Also, if two guys decide to transfer a file from their respective SMB shares, well, half of Patparganj have to wait before they have finished. > > > If you are going for a cable connection, you first think > > about HAthway and spectranet.

They provide the uplink to the cable setups. - Sandip -- -------------------------------------------------------- Sandip Bhattacharya sandipb <@> bigfoot.com http://www.sandipb.net GPG/PGP: 0x08EB637C -------------------------------------------------------- ================================================ To unsubscribe, send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with unsubscribe in subject header.
