I am using a Vodafone USB stick for my wireless internet connection but have not been happy with Vodafone's billing & customer service. My question is -- can I get an Airtel sim card and use it inside the usb stick that I have already purchased from Vodafone? Or is there any sort of lock in place that would prevent that? When I open the Vodafone software, it shows the Airtel network as one of the available networks, but obviously, without an airtel sim, I cannot test it out.

What's the harm in experimenting?

Go ahead and just try whether it works or not!

I fully agree -- no harm in experimenting, but wouldn't I first have to purchase a data plan from Airtel? What would be the minimum cost involved. I already have a SIM card for an Airtel prepaid mobile connection, could I add on data services to that at a nominal cost -- if so, I might be willing to try it out.

Yep, that's possible. Call 121 for more info on data plans in your state.

I think it'll work. try consulting on 121. Just give it a try!

Just activate the zero rental plan & then test by opening any small website (bcoz Rs.20/mb approx on this plan). If it works switch to a good plan & do inform us about it
