well there is a easy way out. juz call ur isp and get ur ports opened (most likely 6881-6999). . india must be be most backward in terms of speed. the max available is 512Kbps . and there is a catch in every package.
        the common catch is the speed . i.e the most standard speed 64 Kbps is actually 64Kbps dwnld speed . 64Kbps= 48Kbps dwnld +16Kbps upload.
     and the quality of service is so gud that i dont hav net conn for atleast 5 days a month.
    thn adding to my woes . there is juz 1 operator in my locality. i.e a MONOPOLY ,  so i cannot even argue with him . i pay Rs 800 ($18.18) for a 64Kbps connection.
a rainy day and my net goes berserk for 2-3 days. neways the government of AP proposed a hi-speed broadband (around 10Mbps) each connection to be finished by feb 2006. but who trusts the government. the project may be scraped mid-way.

hey dude,  t
        ake it easy. dont hope for the broadband scene to improve  over 1Mbps for atleast 2 yrs.
   on the lighter side u guys should learn about DDoS attacks.
   i get speeds of around 7-8 Mbps wenever my isp's server is down. ofcourse 10Mbps would be the max limit as max transfer rate for the indian LAN card is juz 10Mbps. i get this sort of speed once in 2 months and if very lucky once in a month. DDoS attack is a very efficient way of bringing down ur isp server. but never tried it. ne ways right now in hyderabad some operators r coming out with plans upto 512Kbps with UNLMTD usage. at present all 512Kbps plans r limited .
