So I would say vsnl does some kind of compression! (considering the
connect speed would have been around 50000bps)
I remember getting errors while connecting to VSNL... while at delhi...
and then I found that you have to add some aliases to the compress modules
to get them to work... and after that there was an increase in speed...
but VSNL in delhi sucked BIG time back then anyways!(end 99)
