1.> to check 3g facilities of ur area buy insert any sim (2g or 3g) in a 3g handset.. and do a manual search o n/w in dual/umts only mode... it will list down the avlbl 3g n/ws.... manualy selsct that and chek the signal strngh... better it better spd... 2.>for buying a mdem dnt buy any mdem from bsnl itself.. they r locked to them only.. u cant use it with other sims(unless u want the hassle to unlock it)3.>two options to buy : a. localy relnc 3g usb modems.... fully unlocked.... 7.2 mbps down.. 5.76 up... 2600 rs official price... b. u want to buy from onln?? ... go to ebay.in//// buy umg 1831... 21 mbps dwn.. 5.76 up.... price 2800-2900... both relnc modem(Huawei e173) and umg 1831 are fully unlockd to any sim(2g and 3g)...
 
unlocked datacard is just like any other mobile. you can put any sim. but if you bye datacard from bsnl or any other operator then they will lock it to their own sim series. so you can go for unlocked datacard without worry. i purchased huwave umg1831 data card from ebay. and this current one is teracom provided by bsnl. and i can tell you umg1831 is very good. but choice is urs. and to avail 2mb or more speed 3g service should be activated for ur number. 2g sim or 3g Sim doesn't matter much

can 3g give me at least a speed 200 kilobyted per second.
i want a durable modem that lasts for at least 3 years.
 
1.> i mentioned umg1831 bcoz the price diffrnc with the other 7.2 mbps modems are negligible... better invest in a good one..2.>offcourse it will wrk anywhere in india...3.> nbdy will guarantee u the spd...

see modem and speed is interconnected but again its not... coz u can buy a 7.2 Mbps modem or a 21 mbps modem thats upto u .. but personally i wud advice to buy a 21mbps UMG 1831 coz u wil be ready for future also.. but in 3g there is no atleast speed.. all depends on ur location tower strength etc.. may be ur connected to a tower with 14 mbps capable..but that doesnt assure u a speed of 14 mbps.. u may get a mere 512 kbps also if u dont hav enough signal strength so dont expect a minimum committed speed... if u get good speeds then lucky else unlucky...

and last but not the least ... if ur planing to have wireless as a substitute for wireline Broadband the never think of it.. ADSL is much more stable and secure than wireless.. so only if u need connectivity ion the go then go for 3G..

thumbs up... i hav tried so hard to make people undrstnd that 3g is not a option for p2p/torrenting... keep ur adsl/wireline bb for that...
 
in my city there are only few unlocked modems available like huawai 1550, mf 631, mf 190, micromax 310, please tell me which one should buy.i can make arrangement from purchasing from mumbai can any one tell me where in mumbai i can get maximum choice of these modems , because i am much afraid of purchasing from net as this is non conventional for me
 
by the modem reliance is providing.. it comes unlocked at 2600 rs (official pricing)... 7.2 mbps hsdpa
 
sir reliance modem, is it unlocked, i think it will not support any 3g or 2g sim, because it is i think a kind of cdma thing without sim.
one more thing if i buy tata photon plus or that reliance net connect can they give me a speed that i desire
