Wait right there Mr. There is a difference between Powersurfer which is just an ISP and Airtel which is a Telco. You must be knowing Airtel uses DSL. So in reality, internet is just a "side effect" of their telephone line :P. While powersurfer exclusively provides internet access. There is a difference. Besides, airtel being such a big telco cannot make excuses like its costly and such. My friend is in a even worse condition. They have wired up their building but are refusing to provide anybody a connection because they haven't setup their billing system :P Airtel sucks bigtime! >:) -- Regards, Dinesh A.
