Last month I logged 2 tickets, which they resolved with in 24 hours. I recd calls from mumbai from their technical dept. as well as from local office also. I have recomended reliance to my 3-4 friends & they are also happy with the speed & connectivity. I had very bad experience in BSNL at my office while it is working fine at my resi. So.............. My observation for ne ISP is "jo ISP aapke yahan acha chale woh ISP accha". | |

| Platinum Member | Ya in fact i've jumped from being dissatisfied to satisfied to again very dissatisfied to again satisfied till date. Its been a frustrating last month for me. They gave me just 7 days waiver for 25 days of downtime. but still i consider paying them up is way better than the local provider in my area. Now after realignment its again working like a charm for the last 16-17 days. Starts up within about 4 mins of switching on the transceiver. Gives constant connectivity. No issues. Also i'm considering jumping to the 400kbps@1000+taxes plan. Cause it will save my computer and electricity too. On this plan (150kbps) my system is on an average switched on for ~23hrs a day. With the speed boost it will be on for less than half the time. So still contemplating.... Maybe they'l reduce the price or increase the speed of this plan too... who knows.... Sticking to the topic i think it depends on where u live. I'm at dwarka, new delhi btw... and its working fine now. |

I suggest no harm in trying out. If things dont work out at ur place, what u will loose is rs.562 /- towards installation. Dont know abt Delhi but here there are some desperate dealers of wimax who may offer u some discount also, something in the range of 100-200. Try to bargain. | |

Rep Power: 0 | Whats the actual minimum download speed we get if we take a plan with a download speed of 2 mbps in reliance wimax?? (its urgent ) |
| | |
| | #11 |
| Platinum Member | The speed actual or stated 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! |

Rep Power: 12 | 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... Last edited by Admin; 09-17-08 at 10:31 PM.

| Platinum Member | 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. |

Rep Power: 12 | 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 |
| | |
| | #17 |
| Platinum Member | 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? PS. This gr8 forum has become my most visited website. |

Rep Power: 0 | 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 |
| | |
| | #20 |
| Platinum Member | @^^^ 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. |
