Are they normal wifi routers and adsl wifi routers?

bsnl only provides ADSL wifi modem(which is also a router).

Waiting...

Stupid n silly question : Can you please tell me the difference between the kBps and the kbps???

1KBps=8kbps.all connection speeds are shown in kbps while download speeds in browsers,torrents etc are shown in KBps.

Hii...I have an ACER ASPIRE 5920 laptop and it has a slot for express card
i wanna take EDVO card ..Im from Hyderabad and i enquired about it near my exchange and i have that 2.4 Mbps plan available at my place...

1)can i put this pcmicia card in my express card slot in my laptop ? ?I mean does it support it? Its like i use vista OS...will it create any problem regarding drivers ?

2)Also i saw somewhere in the NET that we cant download anything from torrents or rapidshare or some sharing sites like that !! Is it true ? ?

plz do suggest me bcoz the whole plan is very costly and i need to manage my budget very tightly!!

hi guys, i really want 2 know is Ne 1 using Evdo really Downloading at speeds of 200 kbps at least. i havent got those speeds till now ne wer in pune. 2nd question: does evdo give atleast 50 kbps download links on torrents trying video files?

ihave been using EVDO for 1 month now but still cant use it on torrents. secondly i even cant use it in rapidshare & megaupload. this is the error:
Your IP address ... . ..... .... is already downloading a file. Please wait until the download is completed.

can ne1 explain wat error is dis & how 2 solve it?

as far as i know.. i dont think its possible to open ports with EVDO.. hence torrents would not favour EVDO

Will this EVDO card work in New delhi as well? Suppose I take the card in gurgaon...will I be able to use it in delhi?

Please anybody comment on this

No it will not. the BSNL EVDO is based on its Tarang WLL platform which has Landline type numbering pattern and does not support roaming outside the SDCA

just use BSNL bb Instead of BSNL EVDO and select home unlimited plan that is good option

BSNL EVDO currently uses shared IP terminology. The IP assigned to u, will be assigned to many others too. Hence if one amongst u is downloading from file sharing websites, then the error will be the result.

BSNL will allocate dynamic and unique IP addressing in the coming months for EVDO.

is EVDO better than Broadband? can i get 2 Mbps download speed, unlimited!??

The connection is unlimited. But highly unreliable. Speeds are of the order of 300-800 kbps only, although they promise 2.5mbps.

My personal experience has so far been quite satisfactory.
But based on my discussion with other users I have come to the conclusion that the speed differs from locality to locality and even from house to house within the same locallity. But these are probably due to the inherrent signal variations of the CDMA WLL network

I am using BSNL EVDO in Gujarat.

I have an different issue, that is to an addition to what our friends have alredy posted there. The issue is I got disconnected very frequently. I am not able to find any solution to this. Can any ony focus some lights over it.

is it prepaid or postpaid
