I was merely giving you a data point since you solicited feedback re: their service. The throughput is consistent around 226 Kbps. IMO, if MTNL can get it's act together on the support end, they could give the other ISPs a run for their money - you get a landline and Internet in one package :) > > > Regarding the 502T modem, I ran into a couple of weird behaviors: > > > > 1.

Debian sarge. Thanks, this gives me a data point. I have static IP and just logged in to modem (FF 1.0.6 SuSE 9.3). Same problem, some of the graphics of the pages do not load :( Time to follow up with the DLink guys. If you could send me the firmware version it would be great. -- Arun Khan Linux is like a wigwam - no gates, no windows, apache inside -- http://mm.ilug-bom.org.in/mailman/listinfo/linuxers
