1. you can try to get adslmodem+4lan router+wifi model (3 in one )
WA3002-G4 or DNA A211-1 from BSNl itself,
cost rs 1600/= plus about 10% taxes.
Explain to them that you need to use a Laptop at Home.
or
get a wifi router such as netgearWGR 614 v6 ( 4lan and WIFI)
cost about Rs 1500 to Rs 2000/= or linksys/dlink/etc.
or a high power model such as Buffalo 2N wifi routers
with better range. and speed.

2. You are using a Landline based BB .
and to

access BB ANYwhere ( such as airports/railway stations etc )
you need DATA CARD orUSB Modem.
The Tower facility should be available.


Check Airtel ISP also. for International access.

Existing Ut300r2U adsl modem +wifi router not needed.

A wifi router cum modem costs Rs. 1600+ tax from BSNL. It is cheaper than what you get from open market. BSNL do not support maintenance of routers purchased outside.

thanks a lot for the quick suggestion
i had already bought the existing type 1 router 4m bsnl so cant exchange for another wifi router.
the other thing is i want to go for one which is from netgear r linksys as d modem i am presently usin from bsnl is not good.
so cant trust them again.
so to access BB anywer at home on my laptop i need to go for adsl+wifi router na
in case i want to access outside my house i hav to use usb adapter
i hav seen some usb adapters in linksys n netgear
bt my doubt is can i link that usb adapter to my existin type 1 modem n use anyver?
r do i nd to take a sepearate connection like bsnl evdo r photon+

deepmohan

yes you have to get one ADSL+ Wi-Fi Router.

In case you want to access Internet outside house you will have to purchase one Wireless Internet.

Options

Reliance Netconnect

Tata Photon+

BSNL EDVO

Service will be dependent upon network availability just like mobile.

To use it anywhere you dont require your existing type I modem from bsnl, you just have to plug it in your computers or laptops usb port and you can access Internet.

Yes you have to take a new connection which has nothing to do with you current bsnl BB.

big2008

which adsl+wifi router would u suggest among netgear ,linksys n any otr company that u wud suggest

big2008

in case i take the modem 4m bsnl itself on rental
so which would be a better choice among type 2 n type 4 modems

meetdilip

I have read good reviews about netgear routers.

deepmohan

Belkin is also a good option you will get more warranty than any other and may be life time too.

superprash2003

+1 for netgear routers

big2008
