Nasik City.
Edit: Installation done on 12-12-2018. It took 2hr 30mins.
I had to pay 4500/- as a refundable deposit, using debit card. Only Cards are accepted as a form of payment.
Required documents were a pan card and an electricity bill.
Fortunately the Jio Server is on our building. They just had to drop a fiber from the terrace.
The installation guys were amateurs, in terms of Networking.
The I.P address of the router (JioGigaHub) by default is 192.168.29.1,
I asked them whether it can be changed, since all my devices are on 192.168.1.x gateways,
they denied saying default address of device cannot be changed.
I changed it right away after they left, to 192.168.1.1 and its working fine.
Everyone is excited about JioGigaFiber, including the installation guys, as it is new for them.
People were seen inquiring when would JioGigaFiber come near their location.
After connecting the router (JioGigaHub) updates itself to a newer firmware and UI.
The activation is done using installation guys smartphone, and I instantly get SMS
confirmation that a recharge for 90 days has been done.
I was requested to send an email to their higher officials (around 3 email id's) giving positive feedback regarding installation.
I didn't mind since they did gave fast service.
Now the speed. Speed is between 85-96 Mbps, it has not touched 100 till now.
This is acceptable since I'm literally paying them nothing. But if this does not gets fixed until
official launch. It'll be bad since competitors like You Broadband give more than 100Mbps always
even for a 100Mbps connection in my area. We await their Streaming/Television services to launch
since that is the form of entertainment which will make most use of the 100Mbps speed.
