HetalDP 947 Report post Posted November 13, 2010 This is out before it comes in HSDPA when all operator says they are on HSPA or HSPA+ Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
KanagaDeepan 1,084 Report post Posted November 14, 2010 (edited) Yes, 11k for 3.6Mbps HSDPA modem... Not so worthy, imho.. Hmmm, better to use an android HSPA phone with HotSpot app or even latest S60 phones (E72) with Jaiku-Hotspot app... Will be much better, cheap and fast..

sougatadc 358 Report post Posted November 14, 2010 And only SIM slot, no USB MODEM connection option. So, it cannot be used to share EVDO/1X internet from Tata Photon Whiz/Plus or Reliance Net Connect or MTS Blaze. This is not good. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mufaddal 678 Report post Posted November 14, 2010 (edited) waste of money donot buy there are cheaper routers available on ebay which can allow u to plug in ur usb dongle straight away also Reliance GSM and others will be HSPA+ , so why to invest 11000rs in HSDPA routers PS: Tmobile USA , has HSPA+ networks and they call it as "4G " , though technical definition of 4G is different , but all operator started calling all networks with speeds above conventional 3G networks as 4G So wimax , HSPA+ are called as 4G , though according to definition they are not So if we consider that , our 3G networks should be at par with USA "4G" coz even we are getting HSPA+ ., so if u go by USA operator definitions we already will be having "4G" ....lol Also HSPA+ is faster than Wimax , so though we are talking about 3G , but in HSPA+ areas we actually would be getting speeds equivalent to what they call 4G in usa !!!

I bought this when I was in KL (Malaysia) just because of its specifications. Later on I realized that I will not be able to use for next few months, so, it went to viper_in_blood. This is an excellent 3G/3.75G router. I also bought TP-Link TD-W8960N (adsl modem + router) which I am personally using. Regards, MG. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
