  1. Got in touch with some Asianet officials today. They have increased the price of the cable modem to 3950/-. (they term this as the installation charge) The modem will always be the property of Asianet. If we decide to terminate the connection within six months, they will ask us to pay 750 + taxes. (they term this also as the installation charge) Even after paying the hefty amount, we wont get the modem for ourselves (for future use with other similar ISPs)! The Dart 1999 plan will require me to pay 1999/- and additional taxes.
  2. Good review. I have some questions. 1) The cable modem price is 3500/-. Is there any minimum hire period for the service? What if I am not satisfied with the quality of the connection - and would like to disconnect it? If at all such a situation occurs, will Asianet refund the said amount (or at least a reasonable portion of it)? 2) If I take Dart 1999, will I have to pay just 1999 or 1999 + taxes? I am not familiar with the policies of this particular ISP since I have not used it earlier. Hence, these queries popped up in my mind. BTW, how is the connection now? Are you facing the same set of issues?

  3. BSNL WiMAX Review

    ipkonfig replied to Arun's topic in Other Broadband Discussion

    I wanted to check the feasibility of Wimax in my area. Applied for a connection last week; got the name and mobile number of someone who gives the connection over here. Since the guy did not show even by yesterday, I decided to call him and inquire .. He replied that BSNL has not provided him with any transportation options at the moment. So he is waiting for that to happen and only then he can turn up over here to check the feasibility.

  4. Forex Trading (Iforex, Xforex Review)

    Oh okay.

  5. Forex Trading (Iforex, Xforex Review)

    ipkonfig replied to Saurav's topic in The Lounge

    Do you have any particular broker in mind? I mean have you experienced these issues with any real world fx broker when trading with a live account? I have been trading in the FX markets since some time. Never experienced the issues posted by you with my broker (Oanda). And mind you, Oanda is commonly termed as a 'bucket shop' by many so-called 'experts'. The only thing which I do not like about Oanda is the drastic increase in the spread rates (10 - 15 pips) when a major news announcement is taking place. If one knows where to enter and place their stop loss, that too is not an issue after all.

    Can you elaborate on the malpractices done by the foreign forex brokers?

  9. BSNL WiMAX Review

    ipkonfig replied to Arun's topic in Other Broadband Discussion

    @ jijo Where are you located in TVM?
  10. Look into the tutorials on how to map this 25GB as a local drive on your internet enabled PCs. You can make good use of the 25GB space.
  11. Hi Shabab, Kindly remove my name (Praveen) from the list. I did not post asking for the wallet, my post was about the extensive nature of the freebies listed in this specific thread. Thanks for showing the courtesy to include me in the list, though.
  12. Woah, I spend a good measure of yesterday evening ordering the various freebies listed in this thread. Thanks for keeping it updated.
  13. Link opening fine over here (Reliance BB Kerala) Thanks for the info

    Thanks for the info

  15. Vote For The Best Anti-Virus!

    ipkonfig replied to Karthik R's topic in General Technical Discussion

    A word of advice to those who are running free antivirus software on their PC. Every month, if possible, download and run the latest version of Combofix in safe mode. It will find and eliminate some of the rootkits which many free antivirus software fails to detect / repair. Likewise, use something like Malwarebytes to keep the PC free of spyware.
  16. Is this newly introduced pack available in Kerala? The official website displays it but the customer care is saying it is not valid in this circle. If it is available, any ideas on how to activate it?
  17. Yeah. But the thing is - the customer care people are blatantly saying that there is no such offer for Kerala circle. I told them about it being shown on aircel website (the plan is shown when we set the circle as Kerala), but these people are saying it must be error with the website. In order to substantiate their point, they are asking me to dial *122# and check the options to activate pocket internet. While I do that, only the old pocket internet plans are listed. Confusing situation .. Edit - Out of curiosity, I tried that freerecharge.in link. The request to recharge for 48/- was turned down by the website - saying that the amount is invalid for the operator.
  18. Okay. But will doing so activate the 48/- PI plan? Moreover, I have considerable amounts as the account balance in this number. Usually, I enter the USSD code (*122*9700#) and they take 97/- off from the account while activating the pocket internet thingy. I was wondering whether one could activate the 48/- plan via such codes ...
  19. ^^ Yes they do. I have been using the 97 PI pack since some months. Since my monthly usage doesn't cross 1GB, I thought of activating this new pack.
  20. Installing and trying Windows 8 makes me feel that I am carrying a large mobile phone with me.
  21. The same situation in Kerala too. Instead of launching on the state capitals, Reliance chose to do product launch in lesser known towns and cities. Reports indicate sales are not progressing as anticipated.
  22. Some weeks back, I acquired a Nokia 1508 handset. Everything was working fine until I realized a major problem. I find that I am unable to make STD calls to RCDMA numbers. Initially, I used to get a "To resume service, please contact customer care" message. I ignored it thinking that it might be some network related issue. However, when I insert the SIM into my old phone (LG RD3500), I find that I can make calls without any issues. Thus it is a phone specific issue. I contacted the customer care; as usual, they are equally clueless about the scenario. Is there any solution to this issue?

    ipkonfig replied to kesav's topic in Other Broadband Discussion

    According to airtel broadband customer care, the default resolution is 320x240px (QVGA).

  24. MNP Retention Offer You Received

    ipkonfig replied to rajanmehta's topic in Mobile Number Portability (MNP)

    Thanks. Someone from the retention department had called me after a couple of days. They offered me the ARP 4999 plan; and I gladly accepted the gesture.

  25. MNP Retention Offer You Received

    ipkonfig replied to rajanmehta's topic in Mobile Number Portability (MNP)

    I too had sent the port-out request too from my RCDMA postpaid connection a few days ago. Until now, there is no information from them. As cited in many places in this forum, it seems Reliance is not at all keen in preserving their existing customers.. Very lucky indeed
