An Internet Service Provider (ISP) in Japan back by Sony
just launched what is said to be the world’s fastest internet for home
consumers. Dubbed “Nuro,” So-net Entertainment’s fiber-based internet
service launched on Monday in Tokyo and six nearby prefectures with download speeds of 2Gbps and 1Gbps for uploads.
And no, you don't have to go around selling your kidneys to afford that. Nuro's 2Gbps Internet connection is currently being offered at a price of 4,980 Yen per month for a two-year contract, which is about US $51 per month or about Rs. 2,700 per month. However, So-net will charge a roughly $540 ( Rs. 29,126.25) installation fee to set up Nuro in customers' homes, but that charge is being waived off for customers who sign-up online, Computerworld reports.
As for the equipment users receive, Nuro customers will get an optical network unit with three-Gigabit ethernet ports and support for 450Mbps over 802.11 a/b/g/n, according to Digital Spy.
Is it high time for the India ISPs to reconsider their business plans ? Tell us what you think of the Internet provided in your locality by leaving a comment below.
