Before providing the bug report, I would have to accept honestly that Jio is turning out to be an awesome service till now, and there has been very few service disruptions and no major network breakdowns over the last three months when I have been using Jio. The speeds have decreased a bit, but it is evident and completely acceptable as the network has now a lot more users compared to three months back. I had bought the Wind 4 phone for Rs.6800 only for the test SIM, and I can say that it has been worth every penny that I have spent.
However, I would like to report a serious bug which I have noticed time and again with the Jio network while using proxies or VPNs (proxies creates more problems than VPN). I have been noticing this bug for all these months and tested it time and again to be sure. I am 100% sure that this bug exists and kills off the connection completely as soon as proxies are used. Jio network cannot seem to handle proxies at all.
It sounds odd, but whenever a proxy is used in the browser, for example, the Jio 4G network drops most of the times instantly without any valid reason. It is a weird bug which I have never seen with any other network be it broadband or mobile internet till date. Using a proxy is like a kill switch for Jio where the Jio internet suddenly stops working as soon as I start browsing something using a proxy in the browser. Then I need to go the network settings in the mobile and reset/restart the LTE connection. It then works for a while, and the internet suddenly stops as soon as I use a proxy. The surprising fact is that the whole network drops and not only the browser. The Internet on all other connected devices for the Jio network also stops working. This is a serious bug and I hope that they fix it out before the public launch of the network.
Rest I have not noticed any other serious bug till date and I have to accept that the connectivity and network have been awesome till date. I would, in fact, say that the network has been a lot more stable than my BSNL ADSL broadband connection.
