A polish man living on a street called Internet Street in Warsaw is selling his house because he is unable to set up a broadband connection there. Details at TotalTele.

I know wireline coverage in India sucks (for example, Airtel and Reliance Communications don’t service my area in Delhi), but selling your house because of no broadband? I think I might relocate…What would you do?

Would you move out of your house if it didn't have Internet connectivity?

I think the question is a bit off since it is framed wrong. Probably it could have been broadband connectivity than just internet connectivity.

been there…. done that !! only if I had known that it had the potential to get featured in a news column :)

when it comes to broadband, I can only trust airtel and mtnl(mumbai)…. sify and other local lines are run by goons and irresponsible idiots, reliance and tata suck at services …. mtnl is tough to get because of the babus and behenjis sitting in offices, but once u have it, its one smooth ride. Airtel is amazingly awesome !

I am not surprised.. I didn’t get any connection for 3 months in Mumbai and I actually discussed moving out..

My experience is ‘exactly’ similar to Mr. Rane’s. I wasted a lot of time following up with Airtel, Tata, Reliance as well as reliace WiMax.. YouTele and Hathway were prompt in saying no.. Finally had to take Sify where some kind of ‘maintenance’ fee is given to local goon (oops.. cable guy)
