when's he starting cable service ...i spoke to my cable wala (IN CABLENET)
and they're clueless !!
and there seems to be no clue abt dishnet and their adsl service ...the babe
in the eth office took down my details and said a rep will get in touch with
me ....that was over 3 weeks back ...
guys any idea on this pls let me know ..
and i still think adsl is cheaper and a better bet ...
btw, why dya hv to pay 35k for the cable modem when u can jolly well hire it
from your isp ....thats what i read sometime back ...just check with your
isp on that ...
cheerio,
sagar.
