One of my frnds told me about BSNL EVDO service.I google and got this: *www.bsnl.co.in/newsdetailed.php?news_id=370
According to it it is far better than the dataone service.2.4mbps UL for Rs.400???
Why isn't anybody using it?

Hello!!
Facts about EVDO
1. Speed mentioned is theoritical.
2 Average speed in the EVDO enabled area is about 500kbps to 1mbps.
3 Further this speed also depend the EVDO tower situated near u r home/office.
4.EVDO support backwards compatability so even if you travel with your laptop around the area of cdma signals U can geeet 60 kbps to 110kpbs (cdma speed max 144 kbps).CDMA is everywhere.
5.If the modem/device is misconfigured than u may not get any signal, and retun it to exchange office to proper activation. Also request them for not to charge rental until it properly activated.
6.It is best if u opted for rental plan instead of purchasing the modem. If the speed is not upto u r expectation U can always return it( after minimum three months).
7.If there is no CDMA/EVDO towers within 6 k.m of around the area of u r home/office than u r out of luck.. EVDO is not for U

Its a shared connection,speed gets divided among the no of users in that locality.
My friend have this connection,he gets more than 1mbps in non peek hours,but many ports are blocked,port forwarding is not supported in evido modem.
GSM and CDMA towers are different...EVDO use CDMA towers..GSM towers are concentrating on Urban areas where as CDMA(BSNL) towers are spread through rural areas... Since the rural areas are not gtting the target BB connections and internet as per GOVT decisions, EVDO is introduced as the alternative for DATAONE connections... However the policy by the BSNL is not changed now, and urban areas also getting EVDO services... Compare to rural areas EVDO services in urban areas always suffered , because of the presence of the high rise buildings, which hinder the signal strength .. so there is a inequality, where one part of area of the people getting Good signals and another part no signal at all.
