I think the evdo service offered by bsnl is one of the best internet services that you get for a fixed amount.It is a wireless post paid connection.Well my plan is Rs 550 unlimited.Maximum Speed offered -2.4 Mbps.But let me tell you that this speed can be achieved only if you are in the area of proper network connectivity.The speed I get is very satisfactory about 710 kbps(because Bsnl Towers are being errected at present). But as such I don’t have to wait for the pages to open.I will get the full speed soon abt 2 Mbps for sure.
The best aspect is that the plan is unlimited and cheap.Whatever you do you don’t have to bother about paying any extra charges.The following details may help the aspiring users:
1.Activation Charges-500 Rs/-
2.Fixed Monthly charge for Net-550 Rs/-,
3.EVDO Card Price- 3500 Rs/-,
- Service tax @12.36% -68Rs/-
Total amount -4618 Rs/-
So this is the price you have to pay while taking the EVDO connection.
Device Specifications- 1.Black Coloured EVDO Device(which may directly be connected to the USB Port) with a small antenna which is projected at the time of execution.Consists of LED which shows either of the two colours at the time of execution.Orange(showing the network coverage is not good) and Green(steady blinking of green colour shows proper network coverage).But the point here is that the device even works when it is orange in colour.I get 3 towers minimum and maximum 5 towers during full network coverage.Upload and download speeds are satisfactory.You can also get the device on rental basis.I donno much details abt it as I preferred to purchase it.
2.Data cable-If suppose you aren’t close to a network then instead of connecting your device to the USB port you can use your data cable which has three Interfaces.The first interface is connected to your device and the other two interfaces goes to the two USB ports of your PC.Here the device is not directly connected to your PC so you can shift your device here and there to find a network.
3.CD- You can install the required software to run the device.
This device is manufactured in China by the ZTE Corporation.
I would recommend this to all my friends as I didn’t have to face any problem while applying for it.
I got the device on the same day I applied for.I didn’t even go to the Bsnl office as it was delivered by the marketing agent of Bsnl at my home.
Results are more than I expected for.
