ZTE ZXDSL 531 Reviews Pls.

After talking to my friends i have found that ZTE ZXDSL 531 (Type II) modem provided by BSNL is not bad (as i thought previously)

I'd like to get some reviews on the modem - any probs with it, range, security of wifi and other general points.

What do you recommend - ZTE ZXDSL 531 or purchase from market?

New thread opened by you, which could have been avoided. I think you rejected rental option earlier .

Modem Charges Modem Type
Modem Sale Price (One time charges) Type-I Type-II Type-III Type-IV
Rs.1000 Rs.1600 Rs.1000 Rs.1600
Monthly Rental Rs.50 Rs.80 Rs.50 Rs.80

Monthly Rental after 24 months
Rs. 25 Rs. 40 Rs. 25 Rs. 40

You wont get in the market a 3 in 1 adsl modem/router+ wifi
for Rs 1600/=
or on rental basis Rs 80 PM .
If available on rental basis opt for it. TRY.
If OK for you buy it outright.

What is the Wifi range you have in mind ?
How many systems ?
From 18th to 3rd floor in a flat complex ?
Usually a range radius of 30 to 40 feet claimed
(*conditions apply !)

Brand names : Buffalo/Linksys/D-link/Netgear .
