NIT Surathkal has state-of-the-art facilities available on the campus and hostels, the internet is one of the good facilities they provide. The internet connection is quite good here and reliable. Each student is able to use at least 25 GB a day to him/herself. The college is provided internet by the government ICT service called National Informatics Service (NIC) and the bandwidth provided by them is really high with a very fast speed. 

Here is some information on the same-

  • At times, you'll also face slow speed issues of a speed, and 144 p videos also are not able to be loaded because of the CCC people.
  • On a day-to-day basis, however, you will be able to access a 2k video on YouTube with much ease.
  • The major issue comes not because of the speed but with connectivity. You'll have to log in to access the 25GB per day, and as soon as you access a router, you'll sometimes have to re-login again and again.

Sometimes nearby malls will give you better stability as far as the connection goes and the college blames the equipment used for the mishap. If you get past the internet connectivity issue, the speed will cheer you up.

Sometimes, you'd be able to download a 1 GB movie within 10 minutes or so, and on other times, like preparation days, or Sundays, it might take more than an hour to do so, because of the collective access.
