Is Reliance broadband shaping torrent traffic?

Reliance is a well known ISP in India and is also one of the few ISP’s which offers FUP free plans to it’s customers. But still they cannot become as popular as BSNL and Airtel. Well the reason for this that they are intentionally shaping the web traffic using hardware equipment’s located at their back end. There are many reports from various Reliance users throughout the country on public forums that they are not getting the promised speeds while downloading content form torrents.

Reliance also produce films and whenever they release their movie, they are known to block all the file sharing websites and forces other ISP’s also to block the file sharing websites by issuing them the court order! This definitely causes a lot of trouble for legitimate users as they cannot share important files with their colleagues or family.

As Reliance provides FUP free plan, their networked is abused to a much greater extent which spoils of other legitimate users and gamers. Reliance is definitely not good for gamers as they are know to have huge problems with their routing to Indian and international servers.

Just recently Reliance user are experiencing lot of problems while opening twitter on their computers. Though this was resolved after few weeks. So i will suggest you to think twice before going with Reliance.

Reliance introduces new postpaid broadband plans for 2012

Reliance Communications had recently introduced new plans in their wireline postpaid category. These are some of the good plans from Reliance which are free from FUP crap which Airtel is imposing on their customers. These plans have no loop holes or any special terms and conditions.

Though these plans look attractive at first sight but i will still recommend my readers not to go with Reliance because of the frequent problems which their network face from time to time. They really are not as reliable as Airtel. But still you can give them a try as they are offering free installation now a days.

Also the coverage of Reliance is much less as compared to Airtel.
