Thread: Tried any New SIM in BSNL EVDO? Is it possible?

Hello there, I read it somewhere that in BSNL EVDO data cards, it is possible to change the SIM card to any other network provider, like MTS/Tata/Airtel/Reliance, is it possible and does any other network provider gives such option.

And finally can we buy a data card, without any sim card at all, from companies like micromax etc.?

First unlock the device and then you can change your service provider.

How about buying devices directly from micromax, can we use any sim card in them? as in, we'll have one data card and 2/3 sim cards from different netwrk providers....use the one which is wrking correctly at that moment.

Hi dsai588, Yes you can buy Global Modem which supports all kinds of 3G and 2G sims which is been manufactured by Micromax.

although Micromax data Modem is one of best option but it is costly, we can switch the services any time we want. like airtel which provides an option to activate and deactivate the Internet services instantly.

Thanks buddy for that information,
I was trying to locate the stores of micromax, but nobody is answering the phone at their corporate office and their stores in NCR are only selling phones, no data cards....any idea where can we purchase these cards?

I haven't used MicroMax Data Card yet, but it is widely available in market. Try at the electronic Malls near by you or Google about shops, else you can buy it from ebay or any online shopping website.

Airtel is GSM based service and does nt support EVDO which is CDMA based.

Presently MTS, TATA or Reliance does not offer RUIM based EVDO service to general customers. EVDO service is hard coded to the data card.
RUIM based service is offered only to customers of Corby Handset, that too after lot of persuasion with the customer care.
