First, the available effective connection speed can not be the same at all places even within an area within a bigger city. Overall, Reliance gives a good dependable speed.

Secondly, what we have seen; 3G plans gives better speed versus combined packs. You should check Reliance’s 3G Mobile Broadband Plans on their official website for their plans. We have nothing to with Reliance, but it appears that they give priority depending on the plans. Otherwise we can not use SSH from higher altitude on Himachal Pradesh.

Thirdly, there should be enough free resources (RAM, CPU etc.) on the computer. It is very difficult and complicated process to get connected on a Network. The connection is not only for using a Browser. Internet is not exactly a consumer grade product. If you can not configure yourself, you must hire / take service of a computer expert to fix your issue.

That model (rather all the 3G Modems) has the problem of getting overheated at the USB socket’s connection point with a computer. If it get overheated, you should use the provided cable.

We have multiple 3G Dongles which uses Reliance’s 30GB and 15GB plans. It is not that, we do not face issues. Reliance (or any Indian ISPs) can not fix the issues with Internet Exchange Point. All Indian ISPs are forced to use India’s Internet Exchange Point. India’s Internet Exchange Point is only NIXI.
