copperco2 24 Report post Posted December 26, 2010 very true said greatest. for the past couple of months i have been travelling and as currently in mumbai..mahim area, i find bb+ is seriously pathetic. Somehow, it is the norm for service providers to check the signal strength in your residence or near it, what i dont understand is how do they expect us to sit at one location with such kind of apendage to the laptop. I am on this network for data for a couple of months if not less, and then switch over to bsnl... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Narrow_Band_Minus 7 Report post Posted January 2, 2011 ^^^ Waiting for the competition between Huawei and Fastel. Here's the story about my fastel modem 1) Bought the modem on Nov 25th. It was working for 1 week. 2) After 1 week , When I connect modem , getting message as "No Service" , "Not Found" , "Limited Service" etc even I am just 500 mts away from the BSNL tower. 3) Complained @ fastel number , they asked me to courier back the modem. I did the same. 4) After so many follow-ups I got the modem last week. This time the gain of the modem seems to be very poor. I wont get singnals when I am inside my room , but getting signals in balcony ; that too , just 2 points signal. 5) Since I am in-need of a connection and this fastel is not suiting any purpose , I thought like buying this EC 1762 of Huvawei. 6) This robust model of EC 1762 giving me good signal where the fastel was failing with "No Service" signal. The quality of the Fastel modem is very poor. They have built in very delicate plastic casing. Not sure how they are making them. Each of their pieces are different in nature seems. Anyway worst experience with Fastel !! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
KanagaDeepan 1,084 Report post Posted January 2, 2011 (edited) The main problem apart from Signal and build-quality of the Fastel Modem is the SOFTWARE... It comes with very very POOR and immature SOFTWARE.. 1) Even I have found 3 to 4 silly spelling mistakes too... 2) There is option for searching signals manually, but it is NOT AT ALL WORKING... 3) The s/w 50% doesn't recognizes the SIM at first launch.. If you reinsert, then it can identify the SIM.. 4) The Statistics is also NOT working correctly... But the price is good (Rs2100 incl courier).. Their time to delivery and condition of courier/package is good.. Thats why I didnt complain and also NOT recommend anybody here..

If you want to save money go for it. If you need good harware and trouble free operation, don't go with Fastel. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Karthik R 246 Report post Posted January 3, 2011 Even I feel Kerala, in particular the capital district, Trivandrum, is well connected with comparitively better data speeds. I am blessed with EVDO on my phone with TI, 3G with BSNL and alternatively on Docomo. Very much contented with the data transmission speed and coverage I am getting though would like to see a fall in tariff to go easy on pockets Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Saiesh 12 Report post Posted January 8, 2011 when 3G was launched speed was great but now in Goa the speed is not so good it is reduced day by day, may be because of too many users. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Narrow_Band_Minus 7 Report post Posted January 8, 2011 when 3G was launched speed was great but now in Goa the speed is not so good it is reduced day by day, may be because of too many users. yes. That's correct. I am not getting > 1 Mbps in Cochin city. This will be becuase of too many users.. All the speed test results which I have posted are from a small town , users will be very less compared to Cochin city. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
