Issues with BSNL USB 3g MMX modem with BSNL 2g sim Speed problems

Posted: 17 Sep 2010 12:48 PM PDT

Hey prabumitu n others... i hv joined d bsnl 3g problem league too..
Ok listen prabumitu.. first of all , yes you are being cheated.. the price of the modem you got came down to Rs2500 in our state last month.. Its actually the first 3g datacard launched by the bsnl itself.. the modem 4 wich u paid rs4000 is actually a black color micromax modem.. And as u said, if dere was d micromax logo n stuff in d cover den u have been provided d cheaper bsnl datacard in d box n name of micromax bsnl datacard.. So u shud go 2 d dealer or d bsnl office where u bought dis n claim for d black mmx datacard with the bill.. However i must say dat d datacard wont make any difference in the speed..d only difference bw the 2 is dat d modem u got is lockd n will work only with bsnl simcards..d micromx one can operate wid other simcards too.....


Secondly regardin d speed.. Get a bsnl 3g sim for rs 59. Get a suitable validity plan.. i guess howevr dat d sim is already life time validated.. Once d sim is activated, get a Re 1/- topup on ur sim... dis will change the sim settings to 2g.. Now get the 274/- unlimited plan.. Ur network will now work on d UTMS or HSDPA mode most of the time..

well i find the design of Taj Mahal and Humayun's Tomb to be quite similar..i dont find any speciality/uniqueness in the Taj with respect to other Mughal buildings except that its made of white marble


Looking for a dynamic bandwidth control solution

Posted: 17 Sep 2010 10:49 AM PDT

there are routers..with custom firmware installed that can do this..for instance i have the buffalo WHR-G54S with DD-WRT installed that has this feature (QoS)..but as per my experience incoming QoS is not very effective..

I don't face any problem....... its cool....

Yes me too, and just to get 10-11 KBps more one should not stop uploading. If everybody starts thinking like that we wont have anyone to download from. Sharing is cool. :)


Some of the websites are not opening on BSNL UL750.

P.S - Do you have sceneaccess invites left?


Airtel cannot give you 2mbps service

Posted: 17 Sep 2010 09:28 AM PDT

hey nice thread...... :)

I have a frend who uses MTNL BB he said that at 512kbps connection he is able to watch YouTube vids without any buffering issue......

so can someone please compare this with airtel BB nd how a govt. co is able to do that nd airtel not.

according to MTNL website their ratio is 1:28.....

FYI, I live on Nagar Road, and ive used the 2mbps plan for more than a year now, with no hassles whatsoever, with youtube videos loading, even at 720p. Not to mention my speeds are always above 2mbps, more like 2.4-2.6 (Which I always thought was a 20% QoS overhead). So its puzzling to hear your problems, especially since I live pretty close to your general area, geographically speaking.


is ur Qos enabled or disabled....as per airtel it should be disabled,,,,

which modem are u using....nd post ur settings.....too as screen shot here....so we can check ours with urs if thts the issue ??


thx
