Agreed. Shift to an ISP like powersurfer.net IMHO they are the best when it comes to "freedom" while uptime is average (my router has a better uptime) and the speeds are OK.
Their packages are quite costly. And availability of service in areas like Thane where I stay is doubtful. BTW, try clicking on the New Registration link on that Powersurfer site. This is a direct link... http://bbregistration.powersurfer.net/servlet/Register
Instead, Tata Indicom (which I used earlier, and am getting back) is much better, cheaper and reliable.
MTNL ADSL beats the pants off every ISP (Tata, Reliance, Incable, Exatt, SIFY) - so far. Additional email id's @ Rs.200/p.a., static ip @ Rs.0.00/ (afair), no proxy, maintains promised speeds at all hours, does not require security by obscurity authentication, very high uptime (given the power situation all cable walllahs are out of the race) and so far only the odd artificially fattened bill. Oh MTNL your performance brings a tear to me eyes.
