ACT Fibernet Broadband Review Bangalore, Including Speed Test Details and Issues We faced

Along with the excitement and joy of shifting to a new city comes the hassle and pain of finding everything again, right from mobile service provider to internet service provider. Recently I moved to Bangalore and had to go through the process. While picking the mobile service provider was easy, I learnt internet service provider would not be such an easy job.

Task of choosing an Internet Service Provider (ISP) in Bangalore

I had numerous options and decisions to make ahead of me. Wireless Dongle or Wired broadband? Hathway or Airtel or YOU broadband or ACT Broadband or Tikona? After little thought I decided to go for wired broadband connection with unlimited internet usage. One decision made. Now which ISP to choose amongst the lot? My first choice was YOU broadband. I had used it earlier in a different city (Pune) and I liked it good. A couple of calls later I learnt that You Broadband did not provide serve in my area. My next choice was Tikona Broadband which was suggested by one of my friends. Unfortunately Tikona did not provide serve in my block. Before you start thinking which part of Bangalore I live in, let me clarify, I stay in Kormangala. From my earlier experiences I wanted to avoid Hathway. They had very bad connectivity, pathetic customer service and termination of connection was a nightmare. Finally I decided to go for ACT Broadband.

Impressive Installation speeds

I checked with ACT Broadband and to my delight, they provided service in my area, block, street and home. I requested for a new connection and almost instantaneously ACT Broadband sales person came to collect my details and necessary documents. The next day, the ACT Installation team wanted to do installations at my house but since I was not at home they patiently waited for me until after my office hours to get the installation done. Sweet! The next day, the ACT Activation team came with the ACT WiFi modem to make the final set of activations and I was online again.
