You are right in choosing BTCL auntu bhai. I think Agni's one time set up costs are also higher (unless there is an Agni box within 100m of your house). The difference between Sagar bhai's download speed and mine is really 'unish-bish'

Ammar if I chose BTCL's this offer for home use for 1 PC and 1 laptop:

Would it be steady to have voice and video chat?
All I need to buy a wi-fi/wireless router, right?

Yes. A reliable netgear home router costs Tk.3000 at IDB. if your BTCL modem and router are next to each other beside the PC, then you're set. the modem and router will come with an ethernet cable each that can connect to the PC and your laptop has wi fi built in.
In case you want a wireless adapter for your pc, then this tp-link one costs tk.1200 at IDB.

currently i am using BTCL 1Mbps.
i am using the HUAWEI MODEM that costs 2500 taka.
then recently i bought LINKSYS WRT54GL Router that cost 4900 taka. there are cheaper routers starting from 3000 but i was suggested to buy this by experienced router users. my router has 4 ethernet ports so u can connect 4 PC's with ethernet cable. and i think u can connect total another 251 devices by WLAN/wifi laptops. u can also use internet with ur wifi enabled mobile, ipod etc in the range.
LIST of routers
also there is another option. u can opt not to buy the MODEM provided by BTCL/EMEM. u can instead by an ADSL MODEM+ROUTER which will serve the purpose of both. i know such device exists but cant tell u a model or brand now. it costs less that the two individual devices but it is recommended to use two separate devices.

hehe. This router is totally for geeks. Trust me. I own one. I have a WRT54G version 2.2 whose firmware I got rid of and replaced with tomato. The WRT54GL is the same thing (actually a WRT54Gv4), with "L" standing for Linux. I would recommend you install DD-WRT or Tomato on yours to unleash the full potential of your router. You can increase wireless range, improve security, run servers, run scripts and a heck lot more from the router with these firmwares. Basically its a cheap $70 router for people to modify and turn into a $500 Cisco router suitable for enterprises and ISPs. Essentially you can run your own 'para'r ISP' with this one router.

'কেবল মেরামতের সময় ইন্টারনেট সংযোগ ব্যাহত হবে না'
ঢাকা, অক্টোবর ০৪ (বিডিনিউজ টোয়েন্টিফোর ডটকম)- অক্টোবরের মাঝামাঝি সময়ে সাবমেরিন কেবল মেরামতের সময় বাংলাদেশে আন্তর্জাতিক টেলিযোগাযোগ ব্যাহত হবে না বলে জানিয়েছে বাংলাদেশ সাবমেরিন কেবল কোম্পানী লিমিটেড (বিএসসিসিএল)।
সোমবার বিএসসিসিএল'র ব্যবস্থাপনা পরিচালক মনোয়ার হোসেন এক সংবাদ সম্মেলনে এ কথা জানান।
মনোয়ার হোসেন বলেন, "সি মি উই-ফোর কেবলের মেরামত কাজ চলাকালে আমরা ভয়েস ও ইন্টারনেট সার্কিটগুলো বিকল্প উপায়ে চালু রাখার ব্যবস্থা করেছি।"
গত ২২ সেপ্টেম্বর বিএসসিসিএলকে সাবমেরিন কেবল কন্সোর্টিয়াম প্রাথমিকভাবে জানায়, সি মি উই-ফোর এর দু'টি রিপিটার প্রতিস্থাপন করা প্রয়োজন।
তিনি জানান, মালয়েশিয়া ও থাইল্যান্ডের ল্যান্ডিং স্টেশনের মাঝামাঝি এলাকায় ওই কেবলের মেরামত কাজ করা হবে।

Related question:
I have decided to go laptop free this trip to Dhaka but do intend to take my iPhone. It is career unlocked.
Are microSims available from providers in Dhaka? If so who and what kind of data plans do they provide?
Any help appreciated.
I was looking up the site http://www.dhakamobile.com/
What do you in Bangladesh think of them?

^^Boss Sir, I think DhakaMobile as a cell phone company who is using our beautiful city Dhaka's name as it's own corporate name. Do you know about Narinda TeleCom? I heard it's a new company too.

Thanks Miraz. All I would need is a micro SIM provider with a reasonable data plan. Since, I will only be there for 2 weeks, don't need a huge amount - do care about bandwidth though.

Zunaid bhai, you can get an internet enabled sim for about BDT 250 and 1GB data will cost you BDT 350. I guess you will need about 2GB allowance for 2 weeks time period. In that case, it should not cost you more than BDT 1000 including simcard.

Dr.Z, just head to Bashundhara city 3rd floor and make em cut you out a sim. I doubt the operators issue out micro sims as yet. I know at least 3 ppl who are using iPhone 4 here in BD

Which provider would you recommend? Who would have better coverage on the road - perhaps around Chittagong, Sylhet, and North Bengal Are?
Thanks in advance.

I am using Grameenphone, not bad for routine use. My friends recommended Zoom ultra from citycell. Probably a tad better than Grameenphone.
