The speed actual or stated

will be the same buddy.

The apparent downfall of the speed in downloads is just the speed in KBps (Kilo Bytes per sec)... just divide your plan bandwidth (in kbps=kilobits per sec) by 8. You'l get the 'download speed'.

2mbps=2048kbps; 2048/8=256KBps. The actual speed will be a bit on the lower side in actual conditions but not too less from this value.

Btw i don't think 2mbps plan exists in reliance?

Peace!

They do have 2mbps connection but they come with a data transfer limit.

this is what they offer :

Download speed---- monthly plan charges------ installation charges---- Data transfer
150kbps-------------- Rs750 ----------------------Rs500 -------------UNLIMITED
300kbps------ --------Rs999 ----------------------Rs500 -------------UNLIMITED
600kbps --------------Rs1799 ---------------------Rs500 -------------UNLIMITED
2Mbps --------------Rs750 -----------------------Rs500 ------------4GB per month

There is also an option to go wifi which will cost you an additional Rs 199 per month

Thats y i didn't see the plan speed on their site.

whihc plan have you got and what sort of speed do you get when downloading large files?

Any disconnection issues? or long downtimes? and any problems like loss of connection for a fraction of a sec and then starts working again? I have to download large back up files every other day to keep a local copy thats why I need a bit stable and fast connection...

StarryKnight · 17-09-2008, 11:35 PM

Well admin....last month was terrible for the connection. 25 days of downtime.. before that the connection had been working steadily for 2 months or so...

but now things have started working fine again. No single second of downtime for 20 days now. They realigned the receiver to another bs in an area i know have a lot of wimax connections. Now its working without issues. It starts working in 3 mins (amount of time to hook up to the bs) after switching on. The dynamic ip given to my pc on the first sign in to the bs after realignment has been manually configured in my lan settings by the technical guy. So no ip issues too.

Previously too with the dynamic ip i did not have any sort of ip issue. At this point i'm very much satisfied with it. The speed is constant. I haven't checked the signal strength again though, but it must be good seeing that it never disconnects even for a fraction of second.

Admin · 17-09-2008, 11:38 PM

I called up the number you gave me and the guy said I would have to wait for another 20 days or so as they dont have the equipment and ar waiting for new wimax stuff... thats why I opted for tata wimax... its been down since day one

only worked for 4-5 hours and that is it.

StarryKnight · 18-09-2008, 12:31 AM

I suggest you wait for the reliance one... if given some patience things work out soon with it.

What are the tata guys sayin? which part of delhi are u in admin?

The actual download speed in 2mbps plan is around 200KBps..
So does it mean that it uses minimum 200KB as i open everypage although the page is of 10 KB...
If i use net for 5 seconds then its usage goes to 5secs x 200KB that is 1000KB that is 1MB..
Is this true..
REply itz urgent..
Icant afford to use 1MB every 5 seconds or for every page

StarryKnight · 20-09-2008, 01:03 PM

@^^^ No it is not so. The usage depends on the size of the web page not the seconds it needs to open. The usage will depend on how many pages you open.
