This is just superb! I am actually feeling that this is a dream that i am seeing in the middle of the night? Despite having a strong tea, have i not woken up completely?

The concern on the bigger picture is that if the Test channels arent appearing, then chances are, we might not be able to see the channels too IF AND WHEN they are eventually launched!

Bluetooth is still there na! But still, for that u need that dongle. And in Linux, i dont know why its not working. So i was looking for some direct connectivity via Wifi.

Remedy is switch to Vodafone. That's what I will be doing as I am also sick of Idea.

Good that you brought this to notice, this happened with me too. I wrote to idea they called me and also sent the following mail. I wanted to check 3G speed on idea so topped up with 103 while on roaming. But when I used internet my main balance over 350/- got deducted.
I have been using Vodafone, Tata and bsnl on roaming. Vodafone gives amazing speed 5-6 mbps. Bsnl gives 1-2 mpbs and tata 3-4 mpbs. All work free on roaming i.e. the plan works. Unlike idea they have 3G n/w of their own in many cities and it seems data usage on roaming is free only if you select home n/w .

I came to know that Idea donot have 3G network of their own in many cities, not even in Mumbai. I applied for mobile number portability now. The company is not wealthy enough to provide free roaming so it is worthless sticking to them. Also the speed is very slow (1-2 mpbs) in Mumbai compared to vodafone or tata docomo.


Following is the reply from idea:
"As per careful scrutiny of our recodes, we wish to inform you that you’re recharge of Rs 103/- has been successfully, updated in our system on dated April 23, 2012.
We wish to inform you that GPRS usage has been done in roaming for your end, hence you have been charged accordingly to roaming plan as 10p/10kb."

Hi frnds,
Today I switched my Broadband connection to AIRTEL from BSNL. AIRTEL gave a type-1 modem (Wired). But I have BSNL's VMC AN1020-21 (WiFi) modem.
Can anyone tell me how to configure this modem for AIRTEL, so that I can use WiFi in my home.

Thanks.

Great! Most of the issues get resolved by doing that. Thats why even the call center guys are trained with this first hand method to resolve an issue!
