I suppose, any dial-up connection would not serve as "
the best" for what you use, the internet for. If you
are using any GNU/Linux distro, and considering
dial-up, make sure, you have your modem drivers ready
for that!
If you don't want to waste time searching for it, I
would recommend, MTNL's TRIBAND as the best option for
any purpose. If you are very keen in downloading
distro's then you can go for MTNL's 590 Night
Unlimited PLAN, else you can go for 199 per month
scheme. This is not advertising, just giving you the
best options ;)
