Hi,

I want to go for Airtel Data Card/USD modem for internet since my area is not feasible for cable connection from Airtel. I live in Bangalore, Marathahalli area so can any one please share your experiences and thoughts - can i go for it or not???

If you are a mobile user and roam outside Indai, go for Airtel orelse go for Reliance. But both are purely depends on the signal strength of that service provider in that area. Also datacard connections are not suited for big file size download.

Can some one post what is the speed they get with the data card?

I used Airtel Datacard once, it gave me 88 kbps connection. But you need to confirm whether Airtel Tower in your area supports EDGE, it enables connection upto 100kbps

I spoke to airtel customer care they said that it supports speed up to 238 kbps

but they do not assure the speed

I think the initial cost a bit high as they charge Rs 3999 for the usb connector and then Rs 999 for unlimited download plan
