SumitVerma 187 Report post Posted May 19, 2010 (edited) Hey all! I am with MTS now from last 4 months! I was all happy but it really pissed me off when it was about coverage. Finally good news is, its available Pan India with 56 Cities having HSD and rest of India with 1x speed. All one has to do is to download the setup file and update the Modem with the Latest software. Source Moreover, MTS is also providing MTS TV for free (Without Additional Charges), only Download charges applicable. Source MBlaze Homepage Hope will help the MTS users like me!

me_saket 73 Report post Posted May 19, 2010 do u mean that previuosly they din't have roaming facility for data card? not even in MTS circle? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
tarun_kabra 204 Report post Posted May 20, 2010 do u mean that previuosly they din't have roaming facility for data card? not even in MTS circle? Earlier they had roaming facility only in MTS circles and now they are giving roaming facility even in circles not covered by MTS. One more thing, right now this facility is only for Mblaze Premium Modem and not for Mblaze Standard Modem, so keep it in mind when buying Mblaze. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

My friend in TATA told me that for Voice they will be using TATA's network but now seems they will use it for 1X too.. Anyone having confirmation on the same?? In Kerala MTS is not using the network of TATA INDICOM or RELIANCE because in some places MTS has full signal strength where Tata or Reliance has no signal. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
igloo 1 Report post Posted May 20, 2010 Mts has sharing agreement with tata however it'll work only when customer is in roaming like it happens for gsm subscribers. This may be valid for data subscribers also. However if higher MTS signal strength is present in an area then obviously device will latch to MTS tower.

HE is talking about tata network while roaming, not in home circle Its wont be exactly like that... I mean, suppose you are using MTS in Pune. Maybe you will get MTS signal in Kothrud but in case if you go to Satara Road & if MTS signal is not present, the device will hook on to TATA. I am not sure about it... But this would be the case I guess.. Also, as KAPILDEV said his town is getting MTS signal & there is no TATA & Reliance, its quite possible as MTS is using TATA only for places where it is not having tower... On a sarcastic note, TATA/Reliance can borrow signals from MTS in your town Some of you must be aware of Videocon doing the same for Voice in Mumbai..

SumitVerma 187 Report post Posted May 21, 2010 ^ There you go Here is the link for Pre-paid tariff Here is the link for Post-paid tariff Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
me_saket 73 Report post Posted May 22, 2010 @hitesh As per my knowlede that's not true. One mobile/ GSM or CDMA system can't use one network at one place and other at other place If they are configured it as home circle,. If u but MTS from PUNE and will go to nashik, whr no MTS tower is installed. then ur card won'r work. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SumitVerma 187 Report post Posted May 22, 2010 ^ I agree to it but thats where Tie-up comes in! Just assume it like the Virgin mobile, But in this case, for HSD MTS network is used and for 1x where MTS coverage is not available, Tata is used! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jijotr 0 Report post Posted August 18, 2010 I have experience much better voice quality with MTS in the same OMH(LG6300), compared to TATA indicom or Rcom. So, one thing is sure, MTS has their own network, but not sure whether they have installed their equipment in the TATA towers as well. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
kesav 127 Report post Posted August 20, 2010 Currently MTS has EVDO Rev A coverage in 74 cities/towns which is more than TATA or Reliance. http://www.mtsindia.in/MBlaze/mts-coverge.html Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
KanagaDeepan 1,084 Report post Posted August 24, 2010 When I first saw MTS starting CDMA services, I thought how can they survive the competition of Tata and Ambani.. Especially their logo gave me an instant laugh.. But now, they are making Tata and RCom to follow them... First the Instant Balance by SMS, then Unlimited EV-DO, now extensive EV-DO coverage, Enabling EV-DO on imported handsets later... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

sougatadc 358 Report post Posted December 5, 2010 Can anybody tell what is the difference in the EVDO tariff difference between MTS's Rs. 248 and Rs. 598 cards? In their official website, against both the cards validity of 30 days and free data usage limit of 1GB is given. Also in the unlimited data usage page (Rs. 999), at one place it is written the FUP for high speed data is 15 GB and just below it is given as 12 GB Which is correct? This is relevant because Cellwalla's latest USP is handsets bundled with EVDO from MTS. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

me_saket 73 Report post Posted December 5, 2010 i think 248 is for 1x and 598 for EVDO, Bcoz MTS buzz is having other rcv for 1x like FRC93 (10gb) free 192-250mb 292-1gb 392- unlimited ax 592-unlimited 1x and unlimted calls to local mts mobile. Each voucher is having some inbulit schme for voice and sms. validity 30 days Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
