Ashokjp 15 Report post Posted March 2, 2005 no ones gonna use 24 hours a day... ya will use, if u dont wanna that phone for calls if so 55rs works out for a day, when calculated for a month its already 1650 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
rEdshiFt 1 Report post Posted March 2, 2005 (edited) sure...its 1650/month...and i still think its worth it. remember u dont have any d/l limits...1650 might sound a lot, but its actually not if we remember we're talkin 24x7 here... it still works out cheaper, if u happen to d/l a lot... approx, i've been d/l 300mb/day (thats quite conservative !)...thats ~ 9gb/month...and for THAT KINDA VOLUME, i would be payin Rs.12,000+ if im using any of the plans with 1 gb d/l cap... ======================================================== edited: no ones gonna use 24 hours a day... dont be so sure dude...i have been usin my lg2030 ONLY to rconnect.... eversince i became a reliance customer....right from my post-paid days...and d/ling 24x7 is not so uncommon.

Mohan 0 Report post Posted March 2, 2005 Even after 24 hrs... if u cant disconnect from net u can use more than one day too... but u shld run ping and ur computer shld be always on and last but not least u have uninterrupted power supply. I to planed to work internet for 2 days with one rcv 55. first day all fine. but on second day power is out for nearly 5 hrs. so i cant able to continue. but until i disconnect i can able to connect to rconnect.

rEdshiFt 1 Report post Posted March 2, 2005 Puneet check out this recent thread on the "platinum plan"... doesnt look too good...looks like we got a catch there...and it seems to go by the name "credit limit"... ========================================================= besides, like mohan said i think its pretty handy as a use_it_on_the_day_u_like kinda recharge...its simple enough right - wont u spend Rs.50 to be able to stay online for a whole friggin day?

anujit 0 Report post Posted December 11, 2006 Here's why rs. 2 per hour isnt a good idea.... 1. Its a platinum plan @ Rs. 1650 a month. If I use it for say 50 hours I don't pay Rs. 100!!!! 2. You cant use a phone for 24 hours a day 30 days a month. These are Reliance phones.... they will burn themselves, your pc and your house! 3. The speed on these phones $uck and cant be really used for big downloads (as compared to broadband) 4. Unless you're travelling alot you can get a broadband connection. A 256 kbps connection which will give you a very constant 32kpbs costs Rs. 100-500 less depending on your location. 5. You cant use your phone for incoming calls. So to run the internet on it 30 days a month you need to maintain 2 phones. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
dandost 0 Report post Posted January 6, 2007 Worth it, Worth it, Worth it. I was in Bombay and had a Sify 256 Kbps connection, for which i used to pay around 750- 900 rupees. Now, I am in Pune and none's going to give me a bb connection at the place I stay... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

cracker 0 Report post Posted January 7, 2007 (edited) @ hpnasik yep u r right with r connect u can download 5-6gb /month but with data 1 u can download upto 5gb in just 6-7 hour and that also by paying Rs500/month so using r connect for unlimited download is waste of time, resources, money (electricity bill!! telephone bill) r connect is good for surfing on the move but not for mass downloading. and i think it is very difficult to keep rconnect up for 24 hour!!!! it has lots of problem and specially problem with electricity when electricity flow in not stable!!!!!- ps :- btw i use to download 300mb /day when i was on freedom @night plan Edited January 7, 2007 by cracker Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
