Bangalore is considered as an IT capital of India. However, Bangalore residents do know that getting a good internet connection is not that easy. Most of the providers stick to the most important areas and do not have any plans of expansion. Others provide bad broadband internet and make us wonder if dial-up was a better option.
Some of the top providers include:
1. Airtel Broadband
2. Tata Indicom Broadband
3. Reliance Broadband
4. Hathway
Airtel Broadband Bangalore
Airtel Broadband is one of the best internet providers in terms of speed and reliability. The download speed is excellent and the tariff is economical catering to both residential users and business users.
However, the broadband connection is available mostly to very prominent areas or residents close to a main road. Though Airtel was one of the early broadband service providers in Bangalore, still there are not much progress in expansion and reach to cover more broadband customers. Please check with Airtel Broadband customer service to know about connectivity in your location.

Tata Indicom Broadband Internet Bangalore
Tata Indicom has recently come up with many new plans for heavy and light internet users in Bangalore. Tata Indicom tariff is basically categorized as prepaid and postpaid and provide both wireless and cable broadband internet.
Though Tata Indicom provides a wider coverage, some areas have very slow internet connections. This usually occurs with their wireless options where internet is provided using a small dish antenna. The antenna is fragile and you might lose connection or experience a slow connection when the weather is unfavourable.

Hathway Broadband Internet
Hathway is another popular Internet provider in Bangalore covering almost all areas in and around Bangalore. Hathway has a wide range of plans and packages for every type of broadband user. Mostly Hathway ties up with the local cable operator to provide internet. The pack includes a modem which connects to your computer through an Ethernet port.
Though the service is great in some areas in Bangalore, Hathway has had the most number of customer dissatisfactions. This is normally due to frequent Internet disconnections and very slow internet speeds. Though the service is fast, please do not expect high speed downloads. However, if no other service is available and you do not want to shell out more on Internet every month, Hathway is the best to go.

I’m writing this to make everyone aware that GBroadband (from Gatik) is the worst ISP in Bangalore and perhaps the worst in the country. To start with, the connection is unreliable drops every now & then. Worst part is the horrible speed. It’s a nightmare. You might end up getting fraction of speed they promise like I’m getting literally 1/10th speed. Their customer service is pathetic. Either they don’t pick up call & even if they pick up they give excuses & keep lying. Many times they don’t register the complaints. And even if they do their technicians take forever to fix. They are simply cheating customers. Never go for this ISP. You’ll regret very badly.
Please Please do not go to Hathway. Airtel or bsnl is best. It’s my personal experience.
Airtel – Slightly Expensive. But they do what they promise.
BSNL – They also do what they promise. But if something goes wrong there comes the difference to run behind and get it fixed. Also online stuff is less and manual effort would be required to get connection and stuff. But if you are a permanent resident, you can go for this.
Hathway – Speed is not reliable. Service is worst or horrible. They dont know what is bandwidth speed and download speed. They dont have interesting or flexible plans. Service would be very bad than you could even dream. Working style is the old mechanism and not plug and play. You need to login and stuff. That too if you dont logout, you cant login in other device and stuff. Would be irritating to the core, trust me.
Just went for HATHWAY from Airtel yesterday. Hope this is not bad decision. I am staying in Kammanhali,

Spectranet Internet has the worst possible Broadband Internet service and Customer care facility in Bangalore!
They have pre paid scheme (30/60/90 days) and once you pay the money and start using the Internet you will find that it only works for 4 days in a week. Rest of the time they claim that the Fiber Cable has been cut underground due to which Internet is not working.
So this is their offer. You have to pay them 2000 bucks upfront as Installation fee and then you have to buy the Internet Package which is Pre Paid + 20% Tax on it. So for a 2 MBPS line for 30 days you will be charged Rs 2100 after tax !!!
They have the worst Customer Service personnel who hang up when you call in asking for information!
Just to test contact 080-42400100 and say that you are living in Bannergatta road and your Internet is not working see how rude they behave.
I am already suffering by taking their internet connection as I have paid them a lot of money. Please do not make the mistake of taking Spectranet!!! You are better off with some other provider.
