Internet connectivity with 115K!

Yes I am using an internet connection which boosts up to 115Kpbs. I have never seen it go past 80K. Presently I have been degraded to use this connection as I have no ISP’s providing a connection where I leave. And yet I am proud to leave in a high tech city named Bangalore. I don’t know why we can’t have a higher bandwidth. This may be due to poor planning by the municipal authority or the Bangalore Development authority. It’s been 4 months that I have shifted my residence and constant following up with the Bharat Sanchar Nigam Limited to provide me a Telephone connection with Internet connectivity is yielding no result. I am getting only assurances. Let me not delve into the details. It’s not that pretty also. For almost 4 months I was not having internet connectivity at home. As a consequence I am now forced to use this connection which makes my life a bit harder. Eventually it may improve or I may adapt to the situation.

I must say it’s always been very interesting to have a connection. I can use chat clients without any considerable degradation of service. Remote connection is one of my requirement which is one of the concern on mine. Remote connection may yield 1k transfer speed. These speeds are literally pushing me into Stone Age. The main disadvantage of living here is that there are no private ISP’s and the only available player is BSNL which is showing a monopoly attitude. Eventually I am planning to go to media which may help me. Anyways I feel like I am held for a ransom! Internet connection!

Hope is the best thing in these situations. I guess I have to do a Munnabhai style protests to get internet connectivity. May be that may follow soon. Never prejudice.

Die Hard...Not that easy in here.

You would love to see a movie with a plot like this. The only catch is if you are a geek! oops...I guess that was hard to digest. Remember you are reading about Die Hard. The movie is centred around the technology and how we are bound to it. In reality it may inspire a few to take lead and make it possible. What am i talking about? Yes the situations and the plot revolves around power. It really comes down to stealing the financial data and making millions in minutes. A diversion is set for the authorities and when it starts to work, they make their move. As always our hero is at the right place at the right time. So the story takes a turn. Now its not the millions that matter, its the revenge! The sole enemy of all. Guess who wins the battle? Kinda end of the story.
After seeing this movie, i found difficult to answer few of the questions. Are we moving towards having a society which can be controlled by a click of button? Is this really possible? At present we are all in the automation era, where everyone needs can be meet with in a clicks away. That's what we claim to be doing. Being in the developing country gives me a bit of comfort zone, but thats for a short period. Is this all boils down to destructive power? We all should be scared as a society. But does the society care? Doesn't looks like it does much. Hmmm lots of question but no answer. Can you give me a answer?

End is just the begining...
