BSNL 3G Thread

Has BSNL capped the 3g speeds to 1-1.2 Mbps in Maharashtra Circle? or is there any setting that i need to adjust?

I am using Nokia 5800xm as USB modem but speed remains stuck at 1-1.2 Mbps only....

@raksrules are you on a Limited Plan or an Unlimited Plan bcoz i read in some forums that BSNL is capping unlimited users with 1 Mbps speed while Limited 3g data users can get speeds upto 3.6 Mbps( in some cases 7.2 Mbps too), Is this true?
 
My main account validity expired tonight, so did a topup of 110 from bsnl portal and got 3 months validity instead of the usual 30 days

Was it a topup or Flexi Topup of Recharge option in BSNL portal. I thought top ups never have any validity ! I am looking to do the same

Cant send you a PM,clear your inbox, normally the topup doesnt have any validity but mine is bsnl saral anant plan, while getting the sim i told them to do a FRC of rs 58 instead of the usual rs 120, so my number is lifetime now and i need to do only a topup of rs 110/220 in 3/6 months to get validity, i got 99.4 something balance with this topup, so it all depends on the FRC on which you got your sim.it was a normal 110 topup on bsnlportal not recharge/flexi.

The issue was that my main account expired though 3G account was valid. So recharged with 110 RC and got 3 months validity instead of 1 month.

Any solution for 1 Mbps speed cap guys? I get full strength network in my area, also the BSNL Tower is merely a 1-1.6km away from my place.

Had gone to CSC they said they have no idea about speeed related issues, so where to query about this?
 
I did FRC 120 and I got lots of free goodies :bleh:

Special thanks to member sabby :hap5:

hey guys could you please tell me if there is any unlimited 3g plan on any network
i am using that 3gb limited 2g plan on reliance but the network sucks and 3gb is way insufficient.
is the BSNL unlimited plan still on???
i am in bangalore
 
^^MTNL 3G Unlimited plan but you will need to source a 3G SIM from Mumbai. Also get confirmation about the usage in roaming.

Aircel supposedly has UL 3G for like 1.25k but no more details yet. Also it is not available everywhere.

i guess it is a local tower issue. Had similar experience with mtnl 3g from past 1 month where i get upto 150KB/sec speeds though would normally would get more than 300+ speeds.
