TRAI ensures 512 Kbps speed at all times!India’s telecom regulatory authority TRAI has made it compulsory for all broadband providers to ensure a minimum speed of 512 Kbps after users exhaust their initial data quota.
  • The mandate requests the service providers both fixed and wireless to notify the users about the throttled speed instead of masking it with unlimited internet offers.
  • TRAI had earlier recommended a minimum of 2Mbps and also issued a consultation paper regarding the same.
  • State owned BSNL has increased FUP to 1MBps as against 512 Kbps.
  • FCC in the United States have denounced DSL providers as broadband providers set up minimum speed of 25 Mbps.
