Airtel V-Fiber Broadband Plans Now Offers 100 Mbps Speed Over Huawei HG630a

Today I got upgraded to the Airtel’s new broadband connection - ‘V-Fiber’ broadband based on Vectorization. The V-Fiber broadband offers speed upto 100 Mbps. As an existing Airtel broadband users I didn’t have to pay any extra. But there is a catch here. I have to purchase the new Huawei HG630a modem for Rs. 1000. There is an option of paying Rs. 1000 in a single go or Rs. 200 for 5 months.

I was given the plan not listed on the Airtel website for Delhi-NCR. My plan is Rapid New 1199 60GB with 40 Mbps speed and unlimited local and STD calls.

Following is the plan listed on Airtel for Delhi-NCR region. The firsttwo  plans are the normal old plans. Third one is the plan I got as an offer and is not listed on the Airtel website for broadband. Rest are the plans that are now listed as the high speed plans under V-fiber broadband. Along with the 60 GB FUP I also got 100GB of extra data for free for the first 3 months.
