5 posts · originally from https://geek.digit.in/community/threads/buying-advice-needed-data-card-dongle-compatible-with-jio-4g.198877/

As far as my Knowledge Goes:

Jio 4G requires

4G LTE (FDD and TDD - Both)
Bands
850 / 1800 / 2300 - Mhz (All Three)

Band Selection & Usage Depends Upon Availability and Network Signal .

Please Tell me Which Data Card to Buy , Which Company , From Where etc .

By Data Card i Mean - USB Modems or Dongles

Optional - SMS and Voice Calling Option (If Available then its a Bonus)

Guys @ Digit - Where are you when i need you ?

Why not get a Jio Mifi device instead?

Amazon.in:review of Huawei E3276 4G 3G Data Card Modem Speed 1..

This one seems to work:
Huawei Unlocked E8372 4G/LTE Wi-Fi Dongle - White - Buy Huawei Unlocked E8372 4G/LTE Wi-Fi Dongle - White Online at Low Price in India - Amazon.i

How ever there is one downside compared to JioFi device that reliance if offering, You cannot make voice calls using JioJoin app by connecting to a hotspot created using this device, so no free calls, while with JioFi device you can connect to hotspot using JioJoin to make free calls over WiFi.

however, there is no network mode selection it works only on auto mode i m also using it with bsnl 3g sim it regularly going 3g to 2g and vice-versa u can't use it for only 3g mode. finally, u don't receive original 3g speed which is a very serious backdrop of this modem.
