While taking the EVDO Connection the BSNL guy said the above said service will be available in the specific circle only.

I haven't used this service outside the circle but i think it will work in others also because there is no specific username or password or any other setting specific for the circle.

Note: Please check with the BSNL guys at Bng. EVDO is a short range WLL Service hence it is different from other Data Card Services of Reliance etc.

I am already using the EVDO Service in Up East Circle. I am download speeds of upto 250 kilo bytes per sec. The major problem is that it is WLL based hence the speed varies. Although Average speed is above 100.

My question is this switching to Broad Band is a clever decision or not.

Details:
EVDO Service
Net Speed 2.4 MBPS
Download 100-250 Kilo Bytes/sec
Upload 10-20 Kilo Bytes/sec
Plan Unlimted

Monthly rent: 700 + taxes (12.32%)

If i go for Broadband Service which plan should i take. or better to stick with the same.
I am in UP(W) and planning to buy a EVDO

Whether D/L speed is 100-250 Kbytes ps or Kbits Ps

and first u said that the rent is 500 + st

and then 700 + st

can u PLZ tell me the correct rent

coz on BSNL website it is 250 + st

and on some 400 + st

EVDO in india sweet!!my friends in the us keep boasting abt how they get broadband speeds on their cell hones!finally i can stop being jealous!

i googled for it "evdo bsnl" & blogs report max speed of 256kbps & they get only around 144kbs & not 256KBPS!

also is evdo like 3g?where 3g phones of the us dont work in other countries and vice versa?

Smile Don't mix things

The speed of EVDO Service varies between 100-250 KBps. I don't want to comment on the rate because i have't got my bill yet. But as told by BSNL guys it is an unlimited Plan. I talked to the SDO of my region and he told me that the charges are 700+ taxes. I a using it for the last three months, and haven't recieved any bill.

Note: KBps = Kilo Bytes/sec
Kbps = kilo bits/sec

Default Check Details

If u have gone through the following article
Bharat Sanchar Nigam Ltd- Latest News
then u must have noticed one thing, that

**Above Tariff is for internet speed up to 144 kbps. (Tariff for CDMA EVDO card for speed up to 2.4 mbps will be intimated later, after installation of CDMA EVDO system).

Consult the Area SDO for details on tariffs.
