Photon+ charges for roaming?
As per their website -
Free all-India Roaming
You can enjoy free roaming across more than 100 cities in India wherever Tata Photon Plus is available
Automatic switch over to speeds up to 153.6 Kbps (Tata Photon Whiz Speeds) in non-Tata Photon Plus regions.

Firstly i want to say that a wireless provider has got different reception/service in diff areas. You just can decide a providers quality on the basis of your region. In my hometown (Patna), i use Photon+ and i easily get approx 1mbps speeds. But @ bhopal, where i currently live, it sucks. There Reliance B+ does well. With 799 UL plan @ 512kbps, i get DL speeds upto 70KB/s, and thats commendable. Plus if everything fails, Reliance has introduced a latest plan of 3G, 101 RC (3GB). Thats way way cheaper than all providers!! One more example is my friend lives in Uttarakhand, and he gets 3G speeds @ 2G RC in docomo !!
plus, reliance NetConnect service gives u free roaming while photon+ charges you for it. All over, none is perfect. My advice is Choose as per your region. GL

For my lappy requirement, I need to buy a USB modem based connection in Delhi. Which one you guys suggest for USB modem, and which service provider to go for? Tata, Reliance net connect+, MTS ? Almost all are providing same plans like 1000rs for 10/12/15gb which suits my budget and GB limit. Any suggestions digitians abt speed/quality.

Also, heard a lot of good reviews abt MTNL 3G in Delhi, I can also buy Hawaei Modem, and MTNL 4.5k 3G plan ? Thanks.

Anyone ?? Bump

Can someone suggest me on this ?

^^ as said by many others, it depends on your area, which provider will be good for you specially in care of wireless services. So do some research work in your area, call for demo and then make the decision.

The roaming charge existed as my friend used it (an year ago). May be it has been removed now. Sorry for not being update. Thnx for informing.

BSNL's EVDO 2.4Mbps data card is f^%$*@g awesome. I am getting around 250-280kBps down-link. At 750 rupees, BSNL just pwns every single company out there.

I was searching for the best available wireless net connection in Delhi and came across the MTNL 3G Data Card, which has pretty attractive tariff plans (Rs. 650 for 2 GB, 850 for 5 GB!). Is there anyone using it? I heard that MTNL after sale service is quiet poor. But looking at the product, it seems quiet impressive, and it has the cheapest tariffs, too! Should I go for it? and if anyone having it, can u tell what all will I require to buy it? Since I am from Outside Delhi and studying here, so no permanent address in Delhi.

Re: Need A 3g usb modem under 2000

Honestly saying, I have no idea about both (alcatel and micromax). One of my friends use Huawei 3G modem (not sure of the model number, I will update it after asking the model num) but gets average speed(I tried it). May be in your area, it will work fast. BTW what SP are you preferring?

Re: Need A 3g usb modem under 2000

i have a huawei E173 and using edge with it since no 3g in our area

modem speed depends on range and how much congested the network is
and if he signal is less modem gets heated up
i used 2 sim one with 97% signal reception modem didnt heated
but while on 10% signal modem got hot
