Hi ,
So im away from home,missing my bb.please suggest a good plan dongle/3g :noob: around rs 750 (upto1k)I looked at reliance netconnect but speeds are like 18 KBPS after fup :(
Something around 32 KBPS after fup will do the trick.Thanks

reliance lauched a truly unlimited plan for 999 some day back which mean no FUP! Idea 3G also has some plan without FUP. Wasnt talking about netconnect. EVDO as my cousins who live like 3 floors above me get 60-100KBps.

Also check MTNL ( my thread ) :p

I moved recently,Im @ 4 th floor so dont know if evdo works :p ,cant get docomo 3g coverage :/
MTNL is a bit overkill(my pocket :p) as i also pay for bb@ home

Reliance might stop UL soon. I think it already stopped?
If you can get MTNL sim u can have 75rs for 1gb for 1wk which is pretty cheap. You should check out their other plans though speeds from mtnl towers isn't good.

You're not in Delhi right? So you'll get data from BSNL(high speed) towers with 0 roaming charges from Delhi sim at delhi rates. I think Bsnl has good coverage. You have to get a Delhi Dolphin sim though.

I'd check local bb too if I didn't need mobility.

they just started UL :| why would they stop it? :|
yeah their plans are good i used to do Rs4 recharge (50mb) everyday as that was cheaper :p

which city you are in? you need MTNL coverage only when you are in home network i.e Delhi and Mumbai. MTNL outside home network switches to BSNL for network.

Well it could be promotional to sell the dongle? Don't have much experience with Reliance. I thought I read it's over in another thread but not sure, check for yourself.

You do understand the difference between wireless and wired internet right? There is no unlimited plan on wireless internet.

Whatever dongle you take, check the local people what they are using and how is the connectivity and coverage. Reliance and MTNL have good plans at 1100 Rs, 40 GB High speed data(300KBps - 1MBps download speed) and 18KBps after 40 GB.

I am currently using Reliance 40 GB plan, at peak time (during evening) the connnection suffers, but at late night and at morning it give good speed/ping. It is roaming free. But their Customer Support is big MF dumb ass retards. No matter how many times you call them for the same issue they will say "We will call you back in 24 hours" but no one shows up. See this, My dongle is not getting any signal for 7+ days, I made a complain still it is not solved, I have been calling them daily.
See this.

MTNL have the same plan 40 GB 999 Rs, but it have some charges for roaming.

Docomo is also having the same issue during peak usage hours, been used it for 3 years but it was giving me trouble recently(high ping in games, connectivty problem ) so moved to Relience. I used the plan 20GB for 900 Rs plan and 32 KBPS after FUP.

Reliance recently launched a truly unlimited plan. I dont know the full details tho but its mentioned as truly unlimited. "TRULY". Also MTNL has unlimited 3G plan too. (my sig). Also idea has an unlimited plan too(not sure, a guy on my MTNL thread said that)

Thats a marketing thingy, they will not say the speed of these Truly Unlimited. Check other forums and see what the speed they getting. Basically the Plans where 144 kbps after FUP is also Truly Unlimited at 144 kbps. :-|

This is applicable for every wireless internet

well the plan is limited to few cities, is postpaid(?) and i couldn't find any terms and conditions (except for the available in selected cities only). Haven't seen anyone using it tho. The MTNL 1650 one is unlimited without FUP, you can check my thread. And the Idea one looks unlimited without FUP too.

^^2 months back,UL BB expired I tried to shift to reliance netconnect.Guy came with dongle but had no coverage ,so didn't buy it.When asked about speeds after fup he said it was 144 KBPS opposed to 144 kbps.I doubted but thankfully no range :) .
When asked about reliance BB, he said its not good ,complaint everywhere !!
