I am a WIFI user(since my router went bust few days back, its rather
like I was a user).
I have Airtel 999 256kbps unlimited connection, which defaults to
512kbps at night.
They gave me a modem(with ethernet port) which I used to connect to my
Netgear router and then surf the web on my laptop.
I also have experience with BSNL(I am in noida, so no MTNL). BSNL
exchange was 500mts away from my house so I could go there and
literaly force or 'entice' the linemen to come when there was a
problem.
After airtel I need to call just their support, and within 24 hours
somebody is ready to come to my doorstep.
As for router WRT54G is not good but GL is good as are GS etc., Since
all you get is max 512kbs its immaterial whether the router does
54Mbps or 5Mbps.
Buy the cheapest you can get. My router fried because the UP state
electricity board decided to compensate for all the power cuts by
giving 350 Volts.
