Unbelievable - Bsnl Wimax 2mbps Unlimited at 999

[gtm]

dear gtm , can we wifi wimax modem

Yes you can. There are three types of CPE (customer premises equipment) - USB type (lokks like a pen drive), Indoor CPE (looks like modem/router) and Outdoor CPE (Like a small letterbox). The Indoor CPE is of two types - Wired LAN and WiFi enabled.

I preferred WiFi enabled Indoor CPE but it was not available (and signal strength was loww too). So I got the outdoor CPE and connected the LAN cable to my Type II ADSL modem (with WiFi) and currently am using through WiFi.

Just remember to disable the DHCP server running in your ADSL modem and change its IP address to something like 192.168.1.2 (the outdoor CPE has already got the DHCP server enabled and has the IP - 192.168.1.1)

Is per bsnl wimax tarrif page, 999 plan has only 512kbps

:: BSNL WiMax ::

is this upto 2mbps speed applicable for all circles ? also whats the upload speed in wimax plans ?

 

[gtm]

I think those are old rates. Please see here for tariffs in Kerala :

BSNL Wimax

Seems they still haven't revised tariff for limited home plans. (Unlimited and limted both have same tariff :huh

At full speeds I am getting around 2.2 to 2.4 Mbps (uTorrent). Upload speed through speedtest shows around .8 Mbps.v

I also own the BSNL WIMAX in kerala 999 plan. getting 2mbps+ download speed and 200-300kbps upload speed.some times it disconnects and reconnects. so for free download of more than 300mb file with out resume option its tuff. other wise its a good deal

by this speed for 7mb file i need to wait 5min for uploading. but when the bsnl guys came here first for demo in their device 800kbps speed(100kilobytes/sec) for upload speed. but when i got the device i only getting 200-300kbps for upload.
my speed test result


hey man now the plan is 750? that means we need to pay 750+50rs rent for device+tax only or we need to pay 999+50rs+tax?

750 is limited plan.. They are posting different plans at different places!!!!

I am downloading at speeds 200+ KB/s but uploading never goes above 30KB/s

No ways to tweak upload speeds?

Wimax will work only on laptop/PC whereas 3G will work on laptop/PC and Mobile.No idea on so far as roaming on both Wimax and 3G is concerned but BSNL website says roaming is better on 3G instead of Wimax.

yea with wimax you can only use in that state, but 3g and EVDO roaming is available. i tried for EVDO but didnt got and i then went for wimax but wimax is good it gives 2mbps, while EVDO GIVES 1MBPS at my place. so for me wimax is a good choice only bad is upload speed. i am not satisfied with it only getting 28-32kbps.
