Thread: Reliance Wimax in Pune

I apologize for starting a new thread if there is already a thread for this- but I couldn't find one here.

Anyway, just moved to Pune to this place called Vadegaon Sheri and my house is walking distance from Viman Nagar but I found out that nobody is serving my area via fixed line broadband.

I have the option of getting Reliance Wimax - any idea how this service is in this area? I have seen that a network tower is in Ramwadi Junction and this place is about a couple of KM from my house.

Any pointers about the connection- is it worth it? It seems to be a big investment. Any pointers would be much appreciated!!

the reliance wimax connection is good as far as Delhi is concerned.
That said i would suggest u to talk around and take feedback from ur freinds/collegues.

If they say good thing about it , goahead with the connection. I suggest a 400kbps unlimited plan.

U can also check out the tata indicom wimax as well, it seems good as well

First, check where is the tower located. The nearer the tower the better it is for the signal strength. Wimax is effective between 1-2 kms

Once the antenna is fitted ensure that you have more then 22 signal strength and you will be fine

i agree and always do a ref check with ur padosis before going for nay intenret connection

Hello,
I am staying at Hadapsar area ( Near Kumar Picaso ) . I just took Wi-Max 400 KBps plan on 23 Feb .
It is working fine for me. My signal strength is 24.

May be you can call Pune . He is vendor for Rcom. He can update you on feasibility in your area.

Best of luck

the issue is closed than, go for reliance wimax, if u need help to wifi in yr house u check this blog on how to configure the wifi router with yr reliance wi max connection

i am a mumbai wimax user though i faced signal problems because of new buildings coming up ...my signal strength 12 .......but getting net download speed of 80-90kB from my 600kbps.......

I will suggest dont go for Signal strenght of 12 . Cause you will never get speed for what you are paying .

make sure u have signal strenght in the range of 24-30

hey i have a r broadnet connection.. hw can i check my signal strength?

Hi, i resides near market yard pune. I took wi max connection. The speed availabe was worst. and rental was too high. initial charges was also very high. i was totally disappointed with the service. then one of my friend suggested me to take RELIANCE NETCONNECT BROADBAND+. He gave me number of Teliance

I TOOK the connection from RELIANCE SALES TEM LEAD . HE gave me the connection within 2 days. believe me its amazing speed. I watch online moovie. and RENTAL is 899 rs per month for ten(10)GB(UNLIMITED FAIR USAGE).
now i am happy with it.:4:
