alam 0 Report post Posted March 3, 2005 Actually, Realiance billing is indeed bad, I have suffered, but I got my bill adjusted. As for speed/connectivity/service, RConnect is way above decent. I get DL speeds of 8-12 KBps easily. As for GPRS, its a viable option only for those with the newer sets (EDGE enabled I think). Otherwise, GPRS speed is pathetic, as webmaster1963 pointed out.

touchdown_rworld 0 Report post Posted March 3, 2005 alam do you mean you get speeds of 64-72 kbps which 8-12 kBps would indicate. If everyone got that speed there wouldn't be any complaints. I get around 10 kbps and it s**ks for a non mobile FWP use. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
rEdshiFt 1 Report post Posted March 4, 2005 i think what orhb means is - the airtel gprs speed is 10 to 11 k BITS per sec...[as opposed to 115kbps thro rconnect...] Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

orhb 0 Report post Posted March 5, 2005 what are u talking? u got 10-11 kbps speed on airtel ? i am getting only 1 kbps speed and some sites are not even opening . did u get the datacable with gl1600 handset? please guide 27601[/snapback] Hy buddy Sorry for a late reply actually the fact for Airtel gprs is that it had a serious problem.now durind the last week of feb this year they had a upgradation in the server and in the whole system .earlier i also used to have a very bad speed but now it's very good --- very good means only in terms of money you are spending . Nokia is really bad in GPRS technology only if you go for hi-end Nokia fones like 6230(approx-13,ooo) then u can have a good gprs modem.But you will get a LG G 1600 only for 4,400 approx and a data cable for 600 from LG service centre. But there is a problem in Airtel gprs after their upgradation now u can't receive incomming calls during online but SMS ,no probs..... if you don't get LG internet kit software mail me t subhrodas@gmail.com and remember only get the data cable for LG service centre... i think what orhb means is - the airtel gprs speed is 10 to 11 k BITS per sec...[as opposed to 115kbps thro rconnect...] 27620[/snapback] It's not KILO BITS it's KILO BYTES Guys, u r in freedom plan then u r facing billing problems.
