Nivyah Broadband

Recommended Posts

Hi Guys,

Read about this service yesterday in Newspaper. They are providing unlimited transfer at 1MBPS speed for Rs 500. I think its the lowest rates among all service providers.

More info here

I have never heard about this co and have doubt whether they can provide quality service at this prices. So, if anyone is using this service, please post their experience for benefit for everyone .

I think BSNL EVDO is a better bet.

They charge 550 rs. for unlinited download @ 2mbps.

Also, the name is reliable and its mobility makes it worth.Sorprendido.gifSorprendido.gif

:previous: India is still not ready properly for wireless broadband... Wired broadband is much better than wireless at the moment atleast..

I am using BSNL EVDO... its not that great... also, it depends on the number of towers it has in a particular place... Here, in my office, I have very good connectivity, whereas in my home the connection s**ks... even dialup is far better..

But as u said, im using it only to download unlimited, movies, games, etc... its a bargain at 650+taxes.... (550 is for older customers, and even they will be charged 650 from january onwards)...

Dear Mufaddalji,

Here's the link :

http://www.bsnlevdo.in/

As u knw bsnl doesn't even care for opening a site about it, so its an unofficial site.

As greatest said, connectivity at certain places is an issue, but i am getting good connectivity at home as well as office. Speed is awesome. M getting download speeds as high as 120Kbps.

I use torrents and thatz the pain point. Earlier, the out ports were blocked. So, downloading from torrents was very painful (speed was max upto 10-15 kbps) but nw, they have been opened, i suppose, as i am geeting speed of 65-70kbps.

Heard that its still in testing phase, so bsnl is throwing it away at cheap prices but to be true, i have been using it for 6 months now and have not faced any prob. Add to it, now national roaming is activated on EVDO (earlier it ws nt there). And thats nt all, if u dont get EVDO coverage in certain rural areas, u can use it on 1x mode which is available everywhere.

U have to visit ur nearest exchange to get it...............

Here's a quick guide :

Evolution-Data Optimized or Evolution-Data only, abbreviated as EV-DO or EVDO is a standard for high speed wireless broadband. BSNL offers Data services on CDMA 2000 1X technology. A customer can avail these services by using EVDO Cards with surfing speed upto 2.4 Mbps.

Now, BSNL is also offering roaming facility on these cards.

The website was infected when I checked more than a month ago but it wasn't on the day when this topic was posted. I think they got relisted by StopBadware.org (used by Google/Mozilla) now, so the browser may have downloaded the malwares to your PC if you accessed the website earlier and don't have anti-virus software.

If you don't have VERY GOOD EVDO signals at your place then yes don't go for it. Since Sadik has contacts with the operators of Nivyah he may be able to ask someone to check the feasibility in your area. Check with him.
