Hello guys, I am a Bangalorean living in Singapore. I am going to bangalore this friday and will need to work from home for 1 week starting from Monday and hence I desperately need a broadband connection, quickly. I was considering Reliance Netconnect+ prepaid connection. I called up the customer service and they said it will take 3 hours for the prepaid data connection to be activated. The sounds too good to be true. What do you guys think? My colleague who had gone to India has brought back the USB device that has a built in SIM card and he asked me to use it, but he doesn't remember the datacard number, MDN, RSN or any kind of number. Will this USB device be of any help? i.e. He used it some 6 months ago and so not sure about its validity. Can I take this USB device to the R world store and will the be able to re-activate it? Please help! Thanks in advance! Revhappy.

Hello guys, Just to update you, I kept calling the customer service several times and finally one person asked me the RSN number which is behind my USB device and using that he gave me the datacard number and thank god it is valid Now I am trying to recharge it online, using following URL:http://myservices.relianceada.com and click instant recharge, I get the following options: HSD Data Vouchers 180 Broadband+ 250MB Pack 30 Days 200 Broadband+ 1GB Pack 1 week 250 Broadband+ 350MB Pack 30 Days 350 Broadband+ 500MB Pack 30 Days 715 Broadband+ 1GB Pack 30 Days 1500 Broadband+ 6GB Pack 3 Months 3000 Broadband+ 18GB Pack 6 Months There is a "Buy Now" button besides each option. But when I click the button, it takes me to a screen to select Circle and prepaid/postpaid and tells me to download a form and submit at nearest webworld Any idea why it is not letting me recharge online?

Thanks Rajiv. That is indeed good news if its validity is lifetime and it doesn't expire due to lack of recharge for 6 months. Since I dont have the MDN, once I reach India, if I just connect the device and try click the connect button will it connect and show me the MDN? Then this MDN can be used to recharge isn't it?

Thanks a lot Amit and Rajiv. If it really 1 min, that great. Reliance surely rocks The USB device that my friend bought is Reliance Netconnect Broadband+ and it works without SIM(sorry for confusing you by saying that it has in-built SIM). My friend doesn't remember MDN and he had taken the 1 month 5GB data plan for 300 Rs I think. That was in like almost 6 months ago, so not sure if it is valid. Do you guys think this USB device will be of any use to me? Can the reliance web world guys decode the MDN from the device and then be able to reactivate it? I am staying in Hebbal in Bangalore. I remember seeing a Reliance Web world store at the end of brigade road and it was quite popular. I guess I will go there to get the connection. Thanks Guys, Cheers! Revhappy
