Yes, they are going to give 2 MBPS line. But it's a crazy idea. instead of giving 2 MBPS line, they could have think of giving unlimited usage @ at the cheap rate. What is the use of 2 MBPS line otherwise? Many corporate customers still use 2 MBPS leased line. I am pretty sure it's just to attract customers. 2 MBPS line > Surely they mean shared 2 MBPS line , but not 1:1 line of 2 MBPS of speed. Crazy govt always make people fool. We dont need 2 MBPS line to browse internet. Yes to download data that is of 3~4 GB, surely some1 need 2 MBPS line. But that would cost a lot and lot. When limit of downloading is there, 2 MBPS line makes no sence.
Better idea is to set a "Squid" proxy server. access all required daily web pages. Those pages are automatically saved in to Squid, dont delete them and then use internet. Each time you access those pages, your transaction will be done from Squid not directly from internet each time you open any URL that in use frequently. -- Amey Abhyankar. ==================================================== In line with the government's decision to declare the year of 2007 as the year of the Broadband Internet, BSNL has updated its plans - Now it is offering upto 2 Mbps speeds on all existing plans. http://www.bsnl.co.in/newsdetailed.php?news_id=352 for details.
