Hi Nasci, Sify uses a system of direct network cables that are pulled into your house from the closest point from the road. I my case the sify provider is in my building hence i recieve a very good line. Your Lan card is your network card that connects you to a network. Its also the device used to connect computers within a unique network ( intranet ).
I am also pleased to note that as of today Tata Indicom is giving download speeds of 20 kb/sec, which translates to a connect speed of 888 kbps. I checked this with the mcafee speedometer today and was amazed when it took an hour and 15 min to download a 111MB file from the microsoft update website. http://us.mcafee.com/root/speedometer/default.asp Regards Dr. Ambert http://www.goadentist.com
