Medilytix Bureau : There’s good news for Broadband RailWire customers. These customers can now use their home broadband plans on RailTel’s high-speed wifi network, which is available at 6105 railway stations.
RailWire subscribers need not buy prepaid wi-fi plans at railway stations and can use their RailWire FTTH (Fiber to the Home) subscriptions on RailTel’s Wi-Fi network, the rail PSU said on Saturday.
To use this service, they simply need to turn on Wi-Fi on their smartphone, select the RailWire SSID, and click the hyper link provided on the captive portal (log in screen) to enter their RailWire user ID and password.
According to the rail PSU, OTT content can now be accessed at any of the 6105 railway stations via the Stations Wi-Fi network, while family members can access OTT via home broadband at the same time.
The OTT-bundled RailWire broadband plans start at Rs 499 per month with 14 OTTs.
