Greatest 55 Report post Posted March 11, 2010 ^^ Just like to add something... I had visited a WW here in Rajkot, Gujarat, and the execs there told me, that Broadband+ is also started here... But they warned, speeds would not be actual upto 3.1mbps, and they also said, that it might reach that speeds within 2-3 months... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
me_saket 73 Report post Posted March 11, 2010 Most of area' are already covered either by TATA or MTS. this will helfull only if they start giving more handse with EVDO(like corby) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ACS 130 Report post Posted March 11, 2010 Ya why not.. maybe Rajkot in next in the pipeline.. but they need to assure carpet coverage before committing. The WWE guy however maybe just pushing his luck with Customers - technically he is correct even if 10 BTS sites are HSD enabled ! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

suvirajshetty 4 Report post Posted March 28, 2010 (edited) Dear Friends, I need to know whether EVDO(hsd) will be available pan India? i.e in near future? this HSD service has changed the way we surf on the go..

Saurav 22 Report post Posted March 28, 2010 Which will be better EVDo or 3G. I know difference in technology, but which will have more speed? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Arun 795 Report post Posted March 28, 2010 huh??? Technically EVDO is considered as "3G" itself, for CDMA. You seem to be confusing it with "HSDPA" which is 3G for GSM. Dear Friends, I need to know whether EVDO(hsd) will be available pan India? i.e in near future? this HSD service has changed the way we surf on the go.. That seems to be the plan for all CDMA operators who have PAN India license... we should see it available in all urban areas at least in the future. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

SumitVerma 187 Report post Posted March 28, 2010 In one other forum I was told that MTS doesnt use Tata network in roaming. Could you please clarify as if what kind of tie-up exists between the two? I was in Chandigarh, when I tried to connect to Internet, it was not catching any signals whereas my Tata phone was working perfect! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

vikasmahajanz 33 Report post Posted June 25, 2010 (edited) Friends i was wondering why RELIANCE is not starting voice/sms service on HSD DATA Cards.. When it is easily possible. Yes we can open dialers and sms options in their netconnect software provided with hsd but need to have service activated. Also is it possible to activate call/sms services on HSD data cards from backend ??? Edited June 25, 2010 by vikasmahajanz Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
