Karthik R 246 Report post Posted April 9, 2011 This one is similar to the Mobile WiFi R201 launched last month by Vodafone (carries a price tag of 5500 bucks). Only difference/advantage of Tata's offering is that, it is dual mode in the sense Photon plus RUIM card can be interchanged with the GSM 3G SIM card to access both EVDO and HSDPA.

Excellent performer! 7.2 mbps downloadsin GSM mode and signal is good in my area. It comes with 2 sims, Docomo gsm amd photon RUIM cdma. I have not activated cdma, as it is only 3.1 mbps and costlier to use. It is locked for TATA only, bt many unlockers are available on Web.

kesav 127 Report post Posted April 23, 2011 I think you're mistaken. In this device, both Docomo-3G and Photon+ costs are identical. You can consume your bundled data in both modes interchangeably.... Only the speed differs.... In case if you unlock, can you please check with RCOM CDMA SIM and also RCOM GSM SIM?

kesav 127 Report post Posted April 23, 2011 Normally, TATA photon+ rates are cheaper than Docomo 3G rates but for this device alone it's identical since TATA wants to provide seamless roaming across the country with single device and single bill. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

kesav 127 Report post Posted April 23, 2011 exactly the same source... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Proton 21 Report post Posted April 23, 2011 (edited) exactly the same source... After 5 GB, the speed drops to 1x. After another block, it drobs to 128kbps,and so on. If you go to any zone without Docomo 3g (coverage is less) you must switch to Photon (longer tower reach). Now you start getting charged for every 5mb at .50p. Also if you decide to use the Photon mode within your 5gb, you will not get charged for Photon usage. The idea is to get Docomo usage to increase. It's not so popular because, like other GSM 3g, it is "bursty", while CDMA is constant. This is why CDMA is so popular with download freaks! Leading to network congestion. The 3g is good for browsers whose download is mostly intermittent: between mouse clicks. Makes sense? PS Google zte ac30 unlock codes for unlocking sites. I will not be unlocking unless I go for a foreign trip. The customer care told me not to lose the Photon RUIM. It cannot be re-issued. BTW, I have Rel USB modem also in office USB router (Sapido rules!). RCOM EVDO is great. I don't use speedcheck, in the real world Youtube playback makes more sense. TATA Docomo: best performer/less coverage RCOM EVDO: 2nd Best/more coverage Photon: Least smooth/less coverage Edited April 23, 2011 by angeleyes Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

me_saket 73 Report post Posted July 29, 2011 I brought device yesterday itself. Prons GREAT product. Very compact. Big battery. (havnt check exact back up) No sim is provided. so using indicom and docomo prepaid sim card. Speed is great on both 3G and EVDO network. Cons : ON/OFF switch is too small, and placed at edge. so conjugated to use. Device takes at lest 1-2 minute, to start internet. (first signal, then data network, then connection, then creating LAN connection). currently i am using on desktop with USB mode. I face issue like, some times DHCP assigned IP address as "automatic private address e.g 196.169.25.254", so not able to connect to device. correct address must be in range of 192.168.0.100. So when i try to connect with CC on 1800266121, they are so dump to understand my problem. ALSO device is locked with docomo and indicom/photon+ sim only. (Tried inserting other CDMA and GSM. it gives error as "invalid sim/RUIM". 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
