Guys please help me!
I need a cheap wireless solution so I can at least surf web pages.
I have no wire broadband option left in here.
My current Alliance broadband totally fcked up now.
Got 20%-30% packets loss.
Pages hardly opening after several reloading and forget about DL or UL.
And I'm totally sure our mfcker cable operator Mr. Goutam Roy Choudhury(Teledyne) not gonna fix my net.....:x
First I was thing to go for BSNL data card then again it is very costly and I already withdraw my BSNL broadband so I guess they will not provide me.
And the reason is BSNL fcking piece of crap.
I'm looking for cheap and prepaid solution.
Thanks.....

Well......Alliance Broadband in some area are really crap as you said, and in some area it's very good.

You can try Airtel, tough it's costly it's provides gr8 service. Just fill up the contact form in airtel website and they will contact you.

And for cheap solutions try Wishnet, Meghlaya Broadband and Sify.

Currently I'm using this.
I already contacted Airtel but they are not available in my my area.
Reliance had stopped wired broadband in my area.
Only Reliance Wimax available but too expensive for me(600kbps UP@Rs.1500+.....).....:(
No BSNL please!
I already cheated by BSNL and fcking local cable operator..........:x

Nothing is available in my area.....:(
Actually our cable operator(Goutam Roy Chodhury,Teledyne) is the main culprit.....:x

The launch of 3G in India will make any difference in wireless broadband in very near future ?
