Hi
I wish to access a linux machine from internet. Please help me with the following queries
a) Anybody using MTNL TriBand Connection with Linux. I have Debian Woody installed. Are there any configuration issues either Hardware / Software. Any link to refer ?
b) Do they provide live IP ?
c) Is bandwidth good ? Is the service reliable ? Uptime ?
Regards
Joel

b) Do they provide live IP ?
they are supposed to give a live ip but ppl at my exchange were not sure . access logs to one of my server suggest its not a static ip
c) Is bandwidth good ? Is the service reliable ? Uptime ?

But dont you think the data cap is too much? I mean 450MB @ 256Kbps is nothing...

You mean too less... Perhaps. MTNL and VSNL have always been slow learners. Global rates per GB of transfer are roughly 0.5 USD. Add to that the load of profits, maintaining a network for he last mile etc. The price shouldn't go above 2 USD. Roughly INR 100 per GB.
MTNL has another captcha... It doesn't give upload speeds over 128kbps.
Try Exatt, they have pretty good plans for unlimited use *no caps*. But of course they did shut my connection down when it had 90% activity for over a week.
