Tata Photon + queries
Hi all,
after feeling like cheated by bsnl 3g speed and performance, i want to buy a photon+ having heard about its good speed, service etc.
However, Want to know one more thing. Does it assign dedicated IP to every user ? How is rapidshare etc & Torrent downloads ? What technology it uses - 3g(gsm) or rev(cdma) ?
since it has no unlimited schemes, and bsnl evdo has, should i also consider BSNL EVDO ?

Re: Tata Photon + queries
I normally get 60 kbps average downloading. speed on my photon+, and rarely it crosses 100 kbps.. plus it doesn't disconnect frequently like other wireless dongles.
Are you not getting speeds on BSNL 3G? I was thinking of shifting to MTNL 3G here, in delhi. Don't know what the speeds are, and the services, too.

Re: Tata Photon + queries
Photon+ uses cdma. there are dynamic ips given and as far as speed is concerned, it depends upon your area and also time. better ask for a demo.
speed varies a lot and as far as support is concerned, it is not very good. i have talked to cs people for 7-8 times and i have found MORONS only.
they even blocked some 35 sites including rapidshare (but no torrent block) for 7-8 days last month just like that without any prior info and any proper explanation.

Re: Tata Photon + queries
Oh..Dynamic IPs that means the same message "you are currently downloading a file, please wait"... !!!
Seems doubtful...ANyway thanks very much for your reply.

Re: Tata Photon + queries
Yes I will use MTNL with the Micromax modem. Currently I have considered MMX 310G which is max 3.6 mbps and can be used with any sim.. do u think speeds will be more than this limit? I think 7.2 mbps will currently be a waste of money, isn't it?

Re: Tata Photon + queries

I doubt they FUP. I have the 15GB plan, once I cross it they start to charge me extra but the speeds remain the same.
