Hi ! Just add the following line in "Extra Initialization Commands" in Advanced Tab of your modem: AT+CRM=1;+CSO=33 and see. It shud work.

Just by googling I found this link to download Diego 03, if it helps. http://rapidshare.de/files/11283589/Diego_03_03.zip.html

Most of them have it, but check before you buy ! Most of them, THESE DAYS, dont have PCMCIA slots, including HP, COMPAQ andd DELL (clearly mentioned in their website, if u pick a model and see the detailed configuration). But Most or all of the models of LENOVO have it. Pls make sure to check it before u buy coz I am the one who has faced major problem because of this and I am having just 2 days used PCMCIA card lying idle with me because I did not confirm it before buying a compaq v3070tu.

Hi ! I bought a Reliance Data Card (ZTE MC315) 5 days ago on 25/09/2006 for Rs.4990/- with Freedom Plan (Rs.650/- / 1GB) for my Laptop. After 2 days, a friend of mine told me that he wants to buy a used laptop. I thought it is a good chance to change my laptop so immediately I offered mine and he bought it at once. Now yesterday (29/09/2006), I bought a Compaq Presario v3070TU and installed all the softwares and at night, I was just shocked to see that there is no PCMCIA slot in this new laptop. Details of this model are still not available on HP website and I had in my mind that all laptops have at least one PCMCIA slot. Though, with this laptop, there is an offer. I’ll get a new USB data card EC325 ( Huawei) after paying Rs.3667/- for 3 months advance rental +tax+other charges. Now, I am very confused what to do. Personally I like to have a PCMCIA card but I can manage with this external USB Card. PLEASE suggest me what should I do? Is there a possibility of surrendering this PCMCIA card to Reliance or I’ll need to sell it off to someone? And what will I need to do for name transfer, etc. etc. I am desperate to know your suggestions. PLEASE HELP!!! Regards.

Hi ! Thanx for reply. But for your information, reliance data cards can be used only as postpaids. Regards.

Hi I went to webworld today so that I could get the connection terminated so that meter does not keep running and whenever I get someone who can use it, we'll take a fresh connection. But I was told that if i get the connection of ZTE MC315 terminated, it will be useless piece of junk. It can not be used at a later stage, the other person said that may be after 3 months u can take a new connection but not at all before that. They themselves were looking confused. Guys pls suggest me what should I do? should I get it terminated or keep on paying 665/- pm waiting for a friend/customer who can be interested in using it. Thanx

Hi ! I got one today. I was planning to send emails etc to hp and cc to press/news channels but I got a call today and I was told they have got a couple of cards and there are hundreds of customers waiting so if I could come early. I paid Rs.3704/- as three months advance rental + 300 rs. other charges + 12.24% s.tax. Though It has not been activated by now as there servers were down when i got it in the afternoon. (I tried dialling *228 few times ). I was told that it will be activated tomorrow at 11am. Thanx

Hi Supernova ! Can u pls send me a copy of the email sent to HP/Compaq (alongwith mail IDs u sent it to). I am also facing problems in getting the USB card which I am entitled to get within 15 days of buying my new compaq laptop. Everytime I visit reliance world, I am told that they will be getting it next week but today, I was told that it wont be possible before this month end. Also, since u r using it, can we take out its RUIM, and put it in a handset or vice versa and use it. Regards. Mukesh Goel m_g@vsnl.com

Dear Supernova, Pls tell us in detail what did u get from HP? A Express Slot card for r-connect or what? I am also stuck up with my old ZTE card. I am not been able to use in my new compaq. Though I'll get an external USB Card in few days. But I am desperate to know if an express slot card is available. Thanx

Hi I have been using Tata Indicom Broadband since November, 2004. That time I had paid Rs.3755/- (2755/- installation & 1000/- security deposit). I have been facing all sort of problems since then. From January to April this year, at night, some competitor used to cut the cable and it took 3-4 days to fix it and on the same night, the wire was cut again resulting to no link. Then it worked fine for a month and half, and now since 12-JUNE-2006. The Connection is permanently dead. If someone tries to call their customer care, he should be prepared to wait at least for 45 minutes (Try it to believe it by dialing 66500121, at least in Delhi) and whenever I managed to, I was assured that connection will be restored by the evening. Some of the times, their website is also down but situation is not that bad, I managed to register the complaint through the net. The details of the complaints are: Complaint No. Date 23594 13/06/2006 30092 14/06/2006 31248 15/06/2006 35166 16/06/2006 41822 17/06/2006 42630 18/06/2006 48108 19/06/2006 49244 20/06/2006 53348 21/06/2006 60452 23/06/2006 64142 24/06/2006 67892 25/06/2006 70858 26/06/2006 76436 27/06/2006 78170 28/06/2006 82208 29/06/2006 85096 30/06/2006 88300 01/07/2006 92190 02/07/2006 98668 03/07/2006 99648 04/07/2006 109006 05/07/2006 109872 06/07/2006 119760 07/07/2006 123158 08/07/2006 124608 09/07/2006 131092 10/07/2006 140290 11/07/2006 If they have decided to discontinue, they should inform me at least and they should refund my full amount including installation because I am not backing out but they are discontinuing. SECOND CASE, a friend of mine wanted to buy a VSNL dial up account. He had no credit card so he asked me to do him a favor and buy a 100 hours pack (Rs.898/-) online. I bought the account on 24/06/2006. My credit card was immediately charged which I checked through online banking. I got an email from VSNL : “You will receive, consequent to this confirmation, the Serial Number and PIN for registration by email, and the pack by courier. On receiving the same, you will need to register your account on the VSNL registration website http://signup.vsnl.com The following are the details of your transaction : Date of Registration : Sat, Jun 24, '06 Account Type : Connect 100 Amount : Rs.898.00 Applicant Email-ID : m_g@vsnl.com VSNL Order Number : 971990 Payment Mode : Credit Card Bank Ref. Number : 971990” But I never got any detail to register the pack. I tried to call the customer care but as usual after waiting for hours I managed to speak to an executive on 29th June, 2006 who confirmed that they have received the payment and she will forward the complaint to concerned department and my complaint will be solved in 3 days time. She gave a complaint number 42574629. But nobody bothered to sort it out and after that I could not spare more than half an hour in a single call to try to speak to customer care. Now my friend is after me calling daily and asking about his account. Now, one can imagine, what is going on with TATA Indicom. Are they planning to shut their shop or what? Please help.

Hi Thanx I have no other option but to sell it. As "drsoham", as a neutral perosn suggested, 4000 is the fair price. Otherwise you can tell me your offer. Pls suggest should I get it terminated now? what is the process? Will I have to pay for 8 days than comes to 250 rupees or so? Thanx.

Hi ! Thanx. Please confirm it with your friend. Then I'll get it terminated even today or tommorow because otherwise their meter will be on till the time I am able to sell the card even if I am not using it now. In that case, I wont be in that hurry to sell it off. Yeah, 4000 seems to be fine since I am new to this and your opinion is unbiased so I think that should be the pefectly fair price. Regards.

Thanx Soham ! I asked yesterday in webworld and I was told that there is a pending list of 1100 customer for the USB Data Card and It will take 20-30 days to get it. He told me that for PCMCIA Card I'll have to find a buyer and they will transfer the name for Rs.500/-. Pls suggest me what should be the fair price of 5-6 days old (it will be older by the time it is sold) PCMCIA ZTE Card. BTW, I am in Delhi. Thanx agn.

BTW, my link has still not been restored. I somehow managed to contact to their customer care executive on 18-July-2006 and requested him close my account and refund my money but he did not register a request of that. Instead, he kept on saying that it will be solved by evening.

So guys, we are at mercy of these ISPs.

Thanx ! I have tried all the suggestions you have given. I have the numbers of the service franchinse for my area and I have called him up several times but he also says that the problem is from back-end and he is also following it up. But nothing has been done so far..its been exactly a month...12-june-06 to 12-07-06.
