2 conditions req for a 200kbps connection
1:If u r living in LUDHIANA or CHANDIGARH , as i do
2.If ur phone supports EDGE

then get a connection frm airtel and activate EDGE over it with just a monthly rental of rs. 600 this service is currently available in only LUDHIANA or CHANDIGARH and speed is blazingly fast 200kilo bytes per second not bits

I am from Kolkata....... 7610 does support EDGE....... but my service provider says i need use DKU-5 Data cable....... as i use a DKU-2 USB data cable...... they said that is why i am not getting the speed..... is it true????

Computer does show 460.8Kbps of connection Speed...... but i get only 1.5 to 2.0 Kbps of download speed.........

what will be the best nokia phone to use as a data phone.........

doom_marine try this

Atcivate ur GPRS.......... Install the cable driver on ur computer......... DKU-2 or DKU-5 what ever cable u r using.......... go to control panel..... u will see nokia modem option...... now make a new dial-up cnection by using this nokia USB (in case of DKU-2) or COM Port (in case of DKU-5) modem.......

in that connection user name is 91xxxxxxxxxx (xxxxxxxxxx is ur phone number) & in airtel the dial up number is *99***1#.........

try this u will able to log on to the net....... & let me know whatever happnes.......
