shocked
May 16th, 2008
I am just shocked when I happened to know the bandwidth rates in United States and India.
India
- We pay something around $62000 for 8mbps (upload + download) per year.
United States
- 8mbps upload + 3mbps download is easily available for $1100 per year.
We pay $62000/$1100 ~ 50 times more and that too for less resources. What a world we live in 
I am 
are the other factors like dedicated / shared, uptime etc same in this comparison ?
Which world do you live in that you came to know about this so late.
@pkj its a business class t1 connection … dedicated including 5 static IPs. Nobody can assure 100% up-time but its reliable.
@Anon i was aware that its cheaper in US.. but this much difference… :-O
India mein fiber distribution ki density is pretty low. Things take time to improve. There was a time in 2000 when a 100hrs dial up package used to cost 10K. Now a unlimited 1Mbps connection costs 2k. We are catching up but just not fast enough
