As far as stability, I am facing disconnection but not before 5-6 hrs. which I doubt due to overheating of USB modem. 200 gb cap is for one month, I heard this in other forums.

I connected my laptop via usb with Nokia E51 Dolphin 3G Jadoo. When I used Nokia PC Suite for connection, I get following speed


Alternatively, when I used Nokia OVI, internet was not working at all, but it was connected.

And yes, I have installed patch for usbser.sys from following location as mentioned in another thread:

Tried lot of things to make it alive. But no luck.

Any one else faced such error and have successfully mad it work? How to manually make the device online?

Also any idea of the costs of recovering data from a 40GB Hard Disk? :icry:


Well in my opinion you should buy thee service from any good data recovery companies.

I tried Salvage which gave me 100% positive result , here is the url hope so its working now Data Recovery | Hard Drive Recovery | RAID Data Recovery

frequent disconnection

Posted: 22 Feb 2011 11:43 AM PST

Check your splitter. Make sure that all connections come after splitter. Check this diagram



Try connecting directly to the modem and check.

Post your SNR and Attenuation values. Make sure that the line is clean has almost no joints and non insulated parts.

---------- Post added at 01:13 AM ---------- Previous post was at 01:06 AM ----------

Also check the power adapter. Presume that they changed while changing the modem.

How secure is netconnect broadband plus ?

Posted: 22 Feb 2011 10:28 AM PST

Unless some govt. spies are after you .. you do not need to worry about your net connection
rest of the precautions ghpk has already mentioned(and yes, you can write a book on them)
And, if the govt. wants to spy on you, they can do it from the ISP itself..(or the bank, since its an Indian bank)

I preferred Focus's Super AMOLED to anything HD7 offers. more over, there seems be antenna death grip issues with HD7. I looked at many HD7 review videos and was disappointed at its display quality. not to mention the 1300 milli amp battery it has and its short battery life.

but, I would really miss HD7's 4.3 inch screen size.


Hi mnreddy,

I was looking forward to ordering a samsung focus from U.S. I have an option of ordering an unlocked device or a locked device and unlock it using a code. Were you able to unlock the samsung focus??
I have a few more questions : we do not have google maps, so how is the performance of bing maps in India??

Well, the speed of a river cannot be measured in litres per second (too low a unit), so the speed could be measured in metres per second considered any unit area over the water surface.

South Korea seeks internet speed of 1 Gigabit per second in every home!

Posted: 22 Feb 2011 08:09 AM PST

I do not want to bother you but this is old news. I have read it in year of 2009.
By 2012 Koreans Will Get 1Gbps Broadband Connections: Tech News and Analysis «

Actually, they are active in that field because they are on top to provide fastest internet in the world. That is why they want to secure their position forever.

Right now, fiber installation is going on in every developed country or being done. Only we are still living in old infrastructure. According to recent development in india on internet infrastructure, all countries are moving on fiber and only they develop wimax where fiber is not possible to install or less requirement in those area but we are moving on wireless technology everywhere except some highly developed and highly requirement area. Wimax develpment is little bit cheap as compared to fiber development. & also we do not have no of CPE manufacturer in india.

By the way, I got some article regarding recent NBP and further expecting development on it. I will post as soon as possible under broadband in india section.

Sun direct dictates to its customers

Posted: 22 Feb 2011 07:41 AM PST

SUN DIRECT IS A REAL CROOK. They block even the FTA TV & radio channels during active subscription period, which one can normally receive with a FTA STB from Measat.
India may be free & open competitive market on PAPER, but when it comes to DTH beyond a certain limit, all Operators seem to be colluding.
This is very bad. I can only visualize one single gainer in this, namely BEETEL (a division of BHARTI AIRTEL). Fed up with dth operator's dictates, ex-subscribers of dth are buying beetel fta STBs.
note: with a single dish pointing towards insat-4b & measat one can get good number of fta channels.


Kubica's seriously injured in rally crash

This is so scary simulation of the accident. Kubica was lucky it went thru arm and not stomach. And his partner was even more lucky, he wasnt harmed at all.

Someone put this comment, even I was thinking the same. F1 drivers shud not be allowed to participate such events.

Does Docomo charge extra for 3G data usage while roaming?

Does Docomo charge extra for 3G data usage while roaming on Tata Docomo network?
I was looking at Docomo's 3G plan's T&C's in Tata DOCOMO 3G Plans | Prepaid & Postpaid 3G Plans in India | 3G Data Card | Tata DOCOMO ...

and noticed this text "Out of bundle charges for roaming usage will apply"

I didn't quite understood this. does it mean bundled free data usage in a 3G pack is not applicable while roaming?

Did any one used Tata Docomo while in roaming?

Thanks for your help.

When will BSNL implement TRAI's recommendation of minimum 512 kbps speeds?

Posted: 22 Feb 2011 05:21 AM PST

A person who can just sign his or her name is called literate in India by the government. Just like the literacy figures are an eyewash so are the broadband figures. They call 256kbps broadband so that they can tell the western world that in India such and such percent of the population using broadband. What a joke!.

Ideal size for Tablet Size - 7 inch or 10 inch ??

Posted: 22 Feb 2011 02:43 AM PST

I think its depend on how you want to use your tablet for? If you want to use your tablet as a smart phone then anything greater than 7 inches screen is a burden you carry everywhere. If you looking for a casual browsing and youtube experience on the move then a 10-12 inches is good. And if you thinking you can replace your laptop level process work with a tablet, I believe you throwing your money in dump, better stick to your laptop cos tablets can't replace necessity of laptops... ;)

Actve Sports not available in full screen mode

Posted: 22 Feb 2011 12:30 AM PST

Forgot to mention one more thing. Earlier, before discontinuing the service, they used to provide original stadium sound as well. So in ad breaks, one was able to shift to different camera angle and select stadium sound. So it was possible to skip annoying ads.

All in all, it is disappointing service. The only benefit of this service is that when some guests come to your house, you can show them that is it possible for you to view the match in different camera angle and you are not dependent on anybody to watch the scoreboard. They might get impressed. :o

Looking for creating a LOCAL download NETWORK IN PUNE

Posted: 21 Feb 2011 11:32 PM PST

I am thinking of creating a local server, which will host the content d/led or stored with us and all the users who are in network will have direct FTP access to it.The network availability is NOT through internet ( since internet speed will throttle ur download speed) but through LAN. if any one interested in this idea please drop a line at umasuman@email.com

vodafone mobile connect and vodafone live unified into one ???

Posted: 21 Feb 2011 10:20 PM PST

I had to send ACT NEWWWW299 to 111 to activate the VMC 299 2gb plan on my postpaid connection. As per the cc it will get activated from the next billing cycle. Even I got the confirmation sms of this request.

P.s.: Mine is a vodafone mumbai connection.

Guy informs Airtel about a problem on their website.

Airtel tells guy to send them a mail with their problem so that they can get in touch with him.

What is going on?

Rana: Deepika Padukone would be Rajinikanth's latest heroine!

Posted: 21 Feb 2011 07:05 PM PST

After Aishwarya Rai... Deepika Padukone is going to be the next heroine of SUPERSTAR Rajinikanth... :|

Apparently, he also approached Madhuri Dixit to play opposite her. MD refused. :D

Also, he is said to have three roles in this movie. So, two more heroines are likely to be signed up.

I personally think he should enter politics and stay there.
