^^ E1750/E1752/E176 are having issues with BSNL 3G network at various place...so I will warn ppl to get those models.

As of now UMG 181/E122 are the safe 7.2 Mbps modems :)

You need to install this: When you try to download a file from the Internet by using Internet Explorer, the download stops responding hotfix! :)

Update : When I used it on my netbbok and shifted to upstair room, signal strength increased to 45% and -93dBM (from 22%, -105dBm). My d/l speed now hits 650KBps+ :D Should have tried it from the start. Was too lazy to disconnect the modem. :p
BTW btjunkie is giving me better speeds than IPT now. :p

Man ur speeds are Awesome. I cant understand on what factors does the speed depend on. It seems to change from tower to tower.

For me Signal strength is around 98% and RSSi is around -70dBM but still speeds hover around 20 - 30 KBps that too very inconsistent.

Whats the difference between HSPA and HSDPA? I'm getting HSPA while my friend is getting HSDPA on E1550.

For wireless using multiple connections increases the overall speed.
So try downloading 3-4 files simultaneously to know the speed available to you.
Also make sure you have switched your phone to 3g/UMTS mode.

Tried everything bro. Using a E122 not phone.

Now cursing my luck and using it. Since it is BSNL cant do anything else.
