Dear Mrs. Sparks,
i wan to tell you that BSNL provide 230/-(permonth), unlimited surfing and downloading in 2G sim and 250/-(permonth), 300mb usage data, after use 300 mb you can recharge with 120/- and you get 100 mb extra for use(no validity).

Hi any one can tell me the price of data card of BSNL of which internet charges is low for unlimited surfinf and downloading.
Sorry… This is also not useful.
I visited Idea Show room in Vizag. I asked demo for Idea Netsetter.
They plugged the USB card and connected their pc. When I test the Internet speed it shows only 2 Kbps. I tried again after 10 mins, again its 2 kbps. So Idea also tells we have to dream the “Wireless Internet” not as planned Idea…!
And there is no free roaming. In Tamil nadu you have to pay roaming charges Rs. 1.50 as STD call rate. but in ads you can see free roaming.
Please make the good decision before purchase this device.
Note:
I’m looking for Wireless DATA card with at least 30 KBps download speed and all India roaming. I need unlimited plan only. If any one knows plz comment here…
Thanks…

thanx buddy;
as i was thinking 2 buy it;
[Reply]
i need more speed .. and full signal everywhere .. i love idea services even i using idea sim .
[Reply]
hi ideas guys first make the signal properly then do the marketing do anything do properly other wise company name ill erase in feature ..
[Reply]
guys idea give this services through the same gsm network so due to call conjestion n network load n some times low signal strength gives rise to very low speeds .. this type of connections are not reliable
they can be fast in night times when traffic load is less n vice versa
go for the Reliance or Bsnl or tata but only the 3G speeds which come from 2Mbps in bsnl -3.1 Mbps in reliance
these will atleast prove to be of worth when u spend money
[Reply]
u will get it in reliance evdo
1750
