So looks like they are doing area by area. That is why x720 got network.

Finally people have started complaining on twitter

Wonder why they are complaining so late. I kept on wondering if its problem with tower nearby.

bplgprs is the APN for loop, I was playing around with their network Yep, thats why its working here EDITFinally ! They have resolved the 2G data network issue ! Time to port back to dolphin

What isssue? How did you know? Is 2G now fast?btw my network was back at around 11 or so last night.

 

[x720]

No, it wasn't about 2G speeds. What used to happen was that, if a subscriber switched data on while on 2G, his number would become "out of coverage area" to anyone who called him while data was on. Has been going for little over a month, all over Mumbai ! Today, I got call, informing me that they'd fixed it !

 

[amish]

Ah! I did not know that. Never realized either. Because I mostly am on 3G network.

 

[x720]

There is no 3G at home, thats how I know

Dear All, Due 2 Up-gradation of N/W, MTNL Prepaid Mobile Services (Calls/SMS) will not be available on 1st December 00.00 hrs to 05:00 AM

I am seeing planned MOBILE NETWORK outage for the first time.

What did they upgrade? Did anyone notice any change today?
