aakash 0 Report post Posted March 19, 2004 Has anyone had a chance to try voice chat over an RConnect connection? By voice chat I mean using voice over yahoo messenger or msn messenger, or any number of voice chat programs. Does it work? Is there a lot of lag? I assume the quality will depend on the quality of the connection - but if someone is doing voice chat on a regular basis, I would greatly appreciate knowing about your experience! Thanks in advance! :-) Aakash Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
niket 0 Report post Posted March 20, 2004 On the Voice chat quality depends on speed at the both ends. But whenever i chat with my friend in CANADA. it is always good. sometime like a phone. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
aakash 0 Report post Posted March 20, 2004 Speed at the other end should not be a problem - it is a T1 line. You mention it is 'sometimes' like a phone - you have experienced bad lag then? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
niket 0 Report post Posted March 20, 2004 Mostly It is real time but once I had a problem of lag and broken voice when my friend talks but he can clearly hear me. so may be a problem on his side. ( he has DSL connection and DSL is slower in uploads) U can safely use RConnect for Voice over IP. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Arun 795 Report post Posted March 21, 2004 Yup, I've used it for Voice chat (Yahoo Messenger) with my bro in New Zealand and it worked fine. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
aakash 0 Report post Posted March 23, 2004 You cant do voice chat unless you have a voice over IP service, and I dont think Yahoo IM supports that. Theoretically the technology to do it is there. But there is no reason for Reliance to support it since it eats directly into their long distance call business Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
gdi123 0 Report post Posted April 2, 2004 my r connect is too slow to have a voice chat.. the lag is in excess of 9 seconds i guess r connect is congested in bangalore.. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
rakesh5295 0 Report post Posted January 30, 2005 I m satified with rcoonect speed. its faster then 56 kb but not as claimed by relaince. vocie chat in msn , yahoo and stanaphone is good. no probs at all. The latest plan of freedom is best as 1gb is more then enough. in general 1 hour vocie chat i use nearly 12mbs max. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
raccoon 53 Report post Posted January 30, 2005 One GB is not so good!!! Im on dial up 56kpbs modem and this month I logged my usage - its already 1.28 GB ...and one more day to go. Besides you need to keep some marjin just is case.... And my usage is just 'average'. For those who download MP3s and Vids and all would use lot more even on a dial up! And R-connect is much faster than a dial up. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
