My wife & I are both IT
project managers residing in Navi Mumbai. Both of us require high speed at all
times & while at office the broadband connection is quite fast, I also tend
to work from home every now and then and on those days, productivity goes for a
complete toss thanks to my slow internet connection.
Not just for work, both my wife
and I are avid fans of several TV shows that we regularly follow on Hotstar
& Netflix because we do not have satellite cable connection like Tata Sky.
After a long day, all we like to do is catch the latest episode of Game of
Thrones or Narcos and eat dinner but the slow internet speed at home after is a
real buzzkill.
A bit frustrated, I started
looking for a new internet provider and began asking around in my area about
who the different broadband service providers in Navi Mumbai are. This is when
I heard of Tikona Broadband services for the first time. On asking
around further and checking out the plans they offer on their website, I found
out that Tikona is apparently quite popular in Navi Mumbai & several
neighbors of mine were already subscribed to their broadband internet plans. A
lot of my friends also subscribe to this Mumbai-based internet service provider
that has some good broadband plans on offer at good rates.
As several members of my
residential society already had the infrastructure set up, opting for Tikona
was an easy decision for me to make. After discussing with my wife, we decided to
go for the Tikona 4 Mbps Plan after browsing through various available plans.
This was the right internet plan that best suited to our needs. With a 4 mbps
download speed & with 30 GB download limit, we can watch a lot of videos or
the stream TV shows we like to watch. The download limit is sufficient to last
us for a month and we haven’t yet exceeded it yet.
Tikona’s 4 mbps plan costs a
little more than 2000 for 3 months & the installation was relatively hassle
free as the infrastructure was already in place & within a day, my new
internet connection was up & running. A rooftop router and an internal
router was installed within a day and my connection was up and running in no
time. The rooftop router is placed on the terrace and a cable is connected from
it to the one at my house. They also provide a Wi-fi router which lets me make
my house a wireless internet space as well as get a direct connection for my
laptop. Up to 8 devices can be connected so the wireless internet can be
connected to a phone, a tablet or any device that requires an internet
connection. Overall, after using for about a month, I had no complaints.
Being from an IT background, I am
aware of the free tools available online for speed tests. Hence, on regular
basis I monitor the speed and perform speed tests. Having enjoyed their services
for nearly 6 months now, I would like to share my honest Tikona review with
all. I am quite content with their services and would like to continue with
them. I am satisfied with the internet speed I am getting and also with their
customer support.
