Reliance JioFi 2 commercially launched

[snik]

Should I buy now?

No , need to buy it after looking at plans, I would directly get sim and purchase a Volte enabled or atleast LTE mobile that's it or better wait for JIO LINK as it's much superior.

my fast.com speeds do not cross 500kbps and most of the times it is 128 kbps. Complain to CC did not work much. Though speedtest.net gives 18mbps. Tower is 100 metres away and can be seen from the window

Can I get my Jiofi2 sim card to work with my ipad? Or will it be locked? Any jugaad?

You'll be able to use it only after your preview offer period ends.

PSA: Power cycle your JioFi every couple days. Mine slowed down to 5/7 after 9 days uptime and a reboot brought it back up to 20/8.

How do you power cycle the device i.e. JioFi2? Also how does one restart or hard reset it? Lastly what kinda speeds are you getting bro...my speeds are pathetic..ranging between 2-4 mbps. Thanks in advance for any help you are able to provide.

Press the power button till it turns off and then press it again till it turns on.

I'm getting 20Mbps

That did it. Thanks a ton RedskyITM!

EDIT > Oh well. Spoke too soon. Still getting about 3-4 mbps -http://www.speedtest.net/my-result/5640296114

Yeah it's been awful for the past 2-3 days. The only place I'm getting 20Mbps is Youtube when I download videos using youtube-dl. Even torrents are giving me below 10Mbps.

Finally I can connect to Airtel Delhi numbers. Looks like they released additional POIs. No such luck on Vodafone unfortunately.
