Rep Power: 7  | Reliance data card is a very good option to go for, good connectivity, doesn't cost a lot (you get the data card free if you pay for a year upfront) and it also provides good service and the best thing speed is good. I dont think you will find any problems with the Reliance data card. |

Rep Power: 7 | Are you actually talking about an Airtel data card or their home broadband band? |

Rep Power: 7 | ok... i just asked because i didnt understand the fact why someone would get a data card connection if they have a home broadband connection, thats unless they use laptop and are on the go! Last edited by Preeti_20; 09-15-08 at 12:35 AM. |

Rep Power: 7 | Yeh thats right Manish, that all you do. But there are two options for using the data card, like you mentioned you can connect by putting it in the usb port, or either get the flat square type of data cards which can be inserted into the data cart slot, which is on some laptops. But the USB option is widely available now and preferred by many people as it connects to any laptop or computer. |

Rep Power: 7 | All i know is that you pay one year in adavnce which is about Rs10,000 and you get the data card free with that. But if you decide to pay on a monthly basis you have to pay extra for the data card, but im not sure how much it is. This information is for the Reliance data card, i am not sure what other providers charge, but i do reccomend getting the Reliance data card. I will try to find out more information about the monthly plans and will post details later on. |
