BSNL's removed the upload cap too
[For ISP enthusiasts]
Background: I've a BSNL Dataone Home 500 connection.
(Feb 11th 12:50 p.m. - Upload to YouTube)
The indicator on the website was showing 52-53 KiloBytes/sec.(steady over minutes). I timed and found that 1 Megabyte gets uploaded in ~19 seconds (- If the 64 kbps upload cap was still on, it would have taken at least 120 seconds). This means BSNL has removed the upload cap too.
Note: Download tests from http://www.bandwidthplace.com/speedtest since Jan 1st, 2007, when BSNL removed the cap, have shown me results of 1 Mbps lots of times (~128 KBps for download), and at most other times, show respectable values between 270 Kbps and 1 Mbps. Earlier, whenever the connection was available, I almost always used to get the promised 256 kbps / 64 kbps speeds (~31 KBps download speeds).
