BSNL Bharat AirFiber

The underlying premise of the technology offered by Jio/Airtel and BSNL is the same in the case of AirFiber service. Everyone is offering a high-speed connectivity solution to customers who don’t have access to fiber broadband services in their homes or offices. It is essentially a Wi-Fi service, over the mobile networks.

BSNL offers speeds from 30-50 Mbps with AirFiber plans. Airtel and Jio offer plans with higher-speeds. Airtel offers up  to 100 Mbps, while Jio offers up to 1 Gbps in download speeds. Thus, if the need is for plans with speeds that are above 50 Mbps, then going with Airtel and Jio is a better option. There’s one more thing to consider here. The private telcos offer OTT (over-the-top) benefits to consumers with their AirFiber plans, while BSNL doesn’t.
