Doubts about BSNL EVDO

Posted: 24 Oct 2013 12:24 PM PDT

Hi everyone! I'm planning to get a new connection as soon as I can, and BSNL EVDO is in the list of favourites but I have four doubts: 1. Does the BSNL EVDO work on Windows 8.1 64 bit and OSX Mountain Lion? I have used the CDMA 1X connection before and I'm sure it cannot be used in either of the OS. So, I was a bit worried. 2. How is the signal in North Kolkata, specifically speaking, Greenpark area in Lake Town, Kolkata? 3. In the BSNL EVDO page http://www.bsnl.co.in/opencms/bsnl/BSNL/services/mobile/evdo_prepaid.html they say prepaid for unlimited is 750 and postpaid for unlimited is 830. Is that true?

Suits (TV series) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Finished first season. It reminds me of two shows... First Collar on how it is presented. Mad Men because the character of Harvey Specter is so freaking similar to Don Draper.

The problem is that Specter is like 5% of what Draper is. It just does not feel solid enough. When Draper talks, you listen. When Specter talks, you hope that he would say something that would impress you. Sadly, it does not happen very often.

Suggest me a 1 TB External HDD....

Budget <4500... if needed can go for 500 more for better product.

 

USB 3.0 is a must.

 

WD/Seagate/Sony/Buffalo/Dell/Toshiba

 

Which brand to go for?

This is awesome..

Bsnl 750 Uld Plan Speed Changes?

Posted: 24 Oct 2013 11:17 AM PDT

I am using BSNL broadband, I've used above 8 GB and according to the plan I should be getting 512 Kbps or 0r 0.50 Mbps.But when I am testing my speed I am getting 1.27 Mbps or 1300.48 Kbps.

http://www.speedtest.net/my-result/3026338887

Wow, maybe it is bypassing the FUP's restrictions.Now no one attends the call when calling to 1500.Why is it giving that much speed?

Scammers on eBay India

Posted: 24 Oct 2013 11:06 AM PDT

I was looking to buy a tablet and saw a Nexus 7 with Wi-Fi and 3G 2013 version at a great price and sorta impulse bought the item. Bad decision. The item was not shipped for 5 days, the scamsters website was blocked by my antivirus and the guy insisted the tab had a sim slot when infact the Cellular version is yet to be launched.

 

No real damages done financially as the refund has been initiated by the system, apart from losing a week and a half, I guess.

 

 

MORAL : Stay away from new sellers, I know some or what the heck most may be legit, but its not worth it. And if something is too good to be true, it probably is.

Please suggest a new connection in Kolkata

Posted: 24 Oct 2013 10:55 AM PDT

Hello everyone!

 

I'm looking for a new internet connection.

 

Area: Kolkata (Specifically speaking, Greenpark area in Lake Town, Kolkata)

 

Requirement:

1. Unlimited plan

2. 24x7 internet connectivity

3. decent speed for browsing and downloading especially during daytime

4. reliable connection

5. No need for night unlimited or peering. I need this connection more during the daytime.

 

Budget: WIthin 750 (the lesser, the better)

 

I did some searching and here are the plans I have narrowed down to. 

1. BSNL EVDO

2. BSNL Broadband Home Unlimited 525

3. Reliance Thunder 549

4. Reliance Thunder 699

5. BSNL Broadband Combo Unlimited 800

6. Alliance PRIME Plan

Have anyone used these connections? What is your say in these? If you had been me, which plan would you have gone for?

 

Here are the advantages and disadvantages of the plans:

 

1. BSNL EVDO

Advantage: portable, 100% unlimited

DIsadvantage: Terrible customer support,

Not sure about: inconsistent signal (not sure how good the signal strength is in our area)

2. BSNL Broadband Home Unlimited 525

Advantage: unlimited literally, BSNL at least guarantees no extra bill

DIsadvantage: Terrible customer support, fall in speed to 256 kbps after

Not sure: Am I bound to take the landline connection? I don't want the landline.Also BSNL Broadband Home Combo Unlimited 650, looks to be the same without the extra landline cost. Once again, I do not need the landline connection.

3. Reliance Thunder 549:

Advantage: Constant 1mbps connection

Disadvantage: The weird contention ratio thing, bad reviews, need to buy a different modem.

Not sure: The service of Reliance broadband in Kolkata, have any of you used it here? Are they really unlimited? Have anyone been billed extra?

4. Reliance Thunder 699:

Advantage: Constant 2mbps connection

Disadvantage: The weird contention ratio thing, bad reviews

Not sure: The service of Reliance broadband in Kolkata, have any of you used it here? Are they really unlimited? Have anyone been billed extra?

5. BSNL Broadband Combo Unlimited 800:
Advantage: BSNL at least guarantees no extra bill

DIsadvantage: Terrible customer support, Relatively expensive

Not sure: Am I bound to take the landline connection? I don't want the landline.

6. Alliance PRIME Plan:

Advantage: Constant 500 kbps speed (or so they promise)
Disadvantage: One of my friends using this ISP reported having repeatedly virus affected and e-mail hacked when using this ISP, strangely the problems vanished when he changed the ISP to BSNL. 

Not sure: I am not sure about anyone else having the problems with Alliance.

Lenovo P780

Posted: 24 Oct 2013 10:12 AM PDT

Most notably, a few official Lenovo accounts mentioned a 5-inch display (our money's on 720p resolution) and a generous 4,000mAh battery, thus making the P780 a natural progression from the 4.5-inch P770 that came with a 3,500mAh cell. MyDrivers' source also tipped a 9.9mm thickness, along with the presence of "super sensitive touch" technology -- as featured on Nokia's Lumia 820 and Lumia 920, plus Huawei's Ascend Mate and Ascend P2 -- that supports glove and non-capacitive stylus input.

How to configure tikona with adsl2+ router (Dlink DSL-2750U)

Posted: 24 Oct 2013 09:56 AM PDT

Hi,

Recently I bought Dlink DSL-2750U modem+router for home use. I want to configure this router but router WAN port accepts RJ11 cable.

And tikona has RJ45 cable.

So anybody can suggest solution for this problem?

Also this router has USB port for connecting internet dongles.

Thanks,
Amit Mande

X Men: Days of Future Past

Posted: 24 Oct 2013 09:45 AM PDT

Deadline reports that Fox made quick work of replacing their vacant director's chair and will likely be able to keep their July 18th, 2014 release date as a result. Fans should be familiar with Singer's work as he wrote and directed both 2000′s X-Men and 2003′s follow-up, X2. He also turned in the script for Vaughn's X-Men: First Class along with an ensemble of other writers, including Vaughn. We also got confirmation of the title from Singer recently. It follows the 1980s' comic storyline written by Chris Claremont that alternates between a present day battle against the Brotherhood of Evil Mutants, and a future timeline where an assassination of a government official has led to Sentinels roaming the land and mutants held prisoner in internment camps.
The cast from the original film is expected to return, including Jennifer Lawrence, Michael Fassbender and James McAvoy.

Regarding vodafone 3g

Posted: 24 Oct 2013 09:18 AM PDT

Im currently using vodafone 2g (mumbai circle) (prepaid) and i am thinking to convert into 3g. But i have some questions:

1. Do I need to change the sim? I am a bit doubful as my sim is 4 years old.

2. Right now I am using Rs.199 2GB internet pack (2G network). Will it get deactivated automatically when 3g will get activated?

3. Is it possible to use 2g data packs on 3g sim?

It's there that a listing has popped up claiming that BlackBerry's as-yet unannounced Z30 will support Qi wireless charging. The listing goes on to say that the smartphone will pack a medium power receiver, capable of pulling 120 watts from a charger, which should be enough to juice that (rumored) 2,800mAh battery in short order.

Posted: 24 Oct 2013 07:18 AM PDT

Why this thread?

So often, we have some random thought or point to make/discuss , and I personally sometimes skip it as I feel it is not worthy of a new thread & feel its unfair to hijack an existing thread...

Would recommend creating new thread for any big news & as usual we have threads for specific series/tournaments.. This is for something general random posts related to cricket...Kind of the Cricket Offtopic thread...

Will start with one post

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Misbah & Taibu seem to competing with each other for the prize of who can bat more defensively....

Can the beetel 450tc1 be used in modem only mode?

Posted: 24 Oct 2013 06:25 AM PDT

My belkin router was working in the modem only mode until recently for my asus router. Now suddenly its stopped working and has some major dsl error. It will be going to belkin support as still in warranty but till then I have to use my original 450tc1 which came from Airtel.

So need to know if anyone here is using it and ideas on the settings to achieve this.
