The ISP's have a portfolio of plans for different types of users. But before that we have to understand the parameters on which they are based.
1.Speed :
Its generally in Mbps. Its the download and upload speed of your plan.
What many people don't actually notice or know is that its 'Mbps' -Megabits per second not MBps(Megabyte per sec).
1 MB = 8 Mb.
So, 1 Mbps is actually 125 KBPS.(Kilobytes per sec)
So if you have a 1 Mbps plans dont think your 5MB song file will download in 5 sec. but in 40 sec.
Why this note was important is because our files,movies,songs etc. are in MBs generally but not the plans and that's the deceiving strategy of the ISPs.
2.Data Limit:
There is something called data limit or data caps generally in GBs. In limited plans, thats the limit to which you can use Internet in terms of GB's used. Even if you are browsing you consume some data in KB's .
Watching a 5 min YouTube video can spend anywhere between 15 MB to 100 MB roughly.
So an ISP saying 'ultraspeedyouarestupidturbomax 5GB monthly@4Mbps' at just Rs. 1000.
is simply saying we give you high speed 4 Mbps but don't go to YouTube or it will get over in 3 days.
ie. once your 5GBs get over ,its over.
3.Price:
Price? Its in Rupees in India.
