    Default TATA Photon 2.4Mbps quality of service

    Hi Guys,

    Tata has introduced the new EVDO connection called Tata photon in our state. It claims to have a speed of 2.4Mbps and the Rs1500 plan gives us unlimited internet. This is fantastic
    However i have gone thru a torrid time earlier with their dsl connection. Is their anyone who has used this and can claim that its good to go for. I will be switching from my current home 500 bsnl plan which is excellent.

    tata compared to bsnl...

    stick to bsnl if you want to be safe. tata has a weird reputation with customer broadband connectivity.

    Get BSNL EVDO. Stay away from TATA. BSNL is much better than TATA Indicom.

    Stick to BSNL,don't change from home 500,be safe.I have experimented with BSNL EVDO and HOME 500 both, if you are lucky then only you would get more than 1mbps, but if you are unlucky then you would get speed less than your mobile GPRS.I have seen more than 1mbps speed in EVDO and less than 50-60 kbps too in two different places in one house.I experimented at 5-6 different places and found a large variance .Unless you have large pocket to experiment with, stay away from this EVDO(be it BSNL or TATA), at least till the technology matures and becomes available everywhere in INDIA.

    it often varies .. and on an average i get above 1.5 mbps every time i check ..

    i m staying in a closed place .. even then the signal is fine ..

    Well I have rather a different opinion as I download about 150Gs on an average every month by my HOME 500 Plan,I don't really surf in the day time that much because of my work, only after 8:00 PM I get time and on weekends.So I just queue and schedule the downloads and turn of my PC for the night and sleep.Just check all the downloads in the morning and leave for office.I just wanted to say that before spending the 1500/- ,just think once if you can use it or not.If you are like one of those people who download and see the youtube and metacafe videos all day then definitely you should go for a plan which gives you speed and amount both. I didn't mean to exploit anybody.

    And BTW, nobody is here to fool around, everybody is here to help and get help.So I expect you to be a little bit more soft on what you post here next time.

    dude lol, why do you think he din speak softly.. he just said 'Don fool around'...
    yea thats right.. some guys just have never tried tata photon and they will say it sucks crap.. all those.. if some1 asks for experiences.. only if they have experienced the low speed... they should speak ill about it... above guys no one had tried it.. but they say tata sucks blindly... IT"S NOT CALLED HELPING AROUND, IT"S CALLED FOOLING AROUND.. guess you got the meaning now...

    And really i cant make a post without ill speaking abt BSNL... i dunno abt other states... but atleast in south.. it sucks big time... sucks to the core.. damnit.. two of my friends have BSNL.. they don even get a 256kbps speed.... damn it.. some sites never load... cant upload a file in RS.. WTH!!!!!!!.... and another blunder... GTLAK for christ's sake u get only one tower and the voice is all crappy .... even while speaking with a friend having 64kbps connection it had all 5 towers and the voice was crisp and clear.. next thing is youtube.. i can just laugh at people who watch youtube with BSNL connection.. finally customer service.. i wont even speak abt it.. duh.... BSNL is really spoiling indian government's name.. damnit...

    I will never ever compare BSNL with any other servies.. BSNL is really out of scope... SO please post your real experiences don jus say it sucks coz BSNL EVDO sucks.. BSNL always sucks so we cant do anything abt it... please please let us know the real experiences here...

    dude levirap87, lemme know if Rapidshare works on photon... i got rumors saying torrents and Rapidshare never works ... thanks for your screenshots.. if what you show is true i am really gonna apply for it...

    FYI guys tata guys said they can give us a demo of what speed you will get in your place and then seeing the speed you can opt for the connection.. so i am really looking forward to it..
