And that is the good part. They are the worst and the quality is what
VSNL delivered on dialup 8 yrs ago. Outage is measured in weeks, the
call center zombies dont know anything at all about pcs. U are
sitting behind a proxy....
Agree wholeheartedly about the callcenter zombies. But I still
maintain that the quality that you talk about is an exaggeration. The
longest outage I have seen in my 3 years was 4 days during the 26 July
rains. That was because the wireless unit was shut off due to fears of
thunder and lightning.

Speeds are erratic, meaning that while you have days when you'll get
160-180 kbps, there will be other days when you get 350-400 kbps
speeds. Its not nearly as good as MTNL Triband I guess since I have
heard lots of great things about it. Same thing about Airtel too.

And yeah, probably aside the fact that I have to modify the dialer a
bit to let it run without root privileges Dinesh is yet to tell me any
"linux unfriendly" characteristics of sify.

PS: The thread is getting too long and pointless I guess (and I take
part of the blame for it). This is the last post from my end for this
thread as I've put all my points forward.
