I use BSNL GPRS through my Nokia E62 in Bihar. I don't think my phone supports EDGE so I don't know if my network supports it but I get 4-6 kilobytes/second. The plan is an Unlimited one for Rs. 250/- (as far as I can remember). Kinda alright for surfing sites and forums with less images.

I anyway use it only as a backup when my BSNL broadband connection goes down so I am fine with it.

Today. while I was downloading a file through the mobile, the network showed "E" on the top which meant, there is an EDGE network available. But it stayed for a minute or so, and then went away. :(

But they haven't mentioned about edge anywhere. Has anyone using SMART Gprs experienced it?

It was true. Two days earlier, I had gone to a place some 5 kilometers from my home. I opened my browser for some surfing. Again the "E" came. I tried to check it for myself. So, I downloaded a song using this EDGE connection. And surprisingly, the speed was 16 KB/s which equals 128 kbps:shock: while my previous Gprs speeds were 2.75 KB/s.

So I think, they have started EDGE, but they haven't officially announced it.

^^^Yeah, they provide. I have an Unlimited Reliance Gprs connection. You have to eRecharge with a 303 topup. You will get a talktime of one rupee and the GPRS will be activated for a month. No daily charges and no download limits.

The activation is done in 5 minutes straight. Initially you have to send an SMS to a number for getting the settings.

Its that I am occasionally getting EDGE speeds on this GPRS :eek:

I have used Smart Gprs to browse in PC. It comes preactivated. Just bring up the dialer and dial the default number. Connection is instant. This is a good thing I noticed in Smart, contrary to Airtel Gprs. Browsing is same as Airtel speeds, most of the time even better. Its 2.75-3.0 KBps, same as in cell. There is almost no speed-drop even during peak hours. And when, I get the EDGE, PC browsing is a Charm with 128 Kbps stable connection :)
