I have a fixed phone of BSNL (then Deptt. of telecom) since 1991. For some time, i had also internet service of BSNL but now i have Tikona network service. The BSNL fixed phone also serves as residential proof and hence I agree with Preethi Zinta's ad of MTNL. My parents found Land Line more convenient. Many contact on he fixed phone and so this needs not be surrendered. .
I agree about proof of residence but in my case I stay here for only for a few months every year so it does not serve my purpose.
we may consider that mobile phone is personal whereas the fixed phone is for family or an establishment. In other words, fixed phone is for collective use unlike mobile phone which is personal. Keeping this in view, one may decide.
I will call this discussion a matter of coincidence. I was just thinking of getting a landline connection only for the net connection purpose as you have done it. My two brother-in-laws also have landline phones that they use for only internet connection. So I don't think you are going against the tide.

I would suggest not to use internet from landline phone because if it goes out particularly in case of BSNL it goes for long. Better to take a broadband connection from private service provider because that is cheaper and have no headache of wired lines. besides service is also easy to get.

There are many private service providers who do it through a small router on top of your house that enables you get broadband service at a good speed and comparatively cheaper and trouble free compared to wired lines. i am Using Tikona for long time.
Actually it is a good plan from BSNL. For 900rs per moth, Both internet and 400 calls sound good. Please let me know the speed of the net?
