      3.1MBPs = Mega Bits Per Second so devide it by 8 which will be the maximum speed of any net and download/upload speed is measured in Kilobites not in Kilo Bits so if you have speed of 15kbps then your nets connection speed is of 200kbps

      I have Reliance 3.1mbps speed internet. This company is cheating the customers. I never got the speed more than 250kbps. Nobody hears any complaint. This is the total fraud with me and other customer.

      dont buy idea net setter if any1 planning2 do..its really fucked up my mind..at the time of buying they said it will give u around 236 kbps means almost 30 KBps but im getting max around 12 kbps nt evn kilobytes..my advice is2 u people dont buy idea usb netsetter go 4 bsnl braodbarand or reliance 3.1 mbps survice which will be better than this boring stuff..Goodluck!!

    5. Hey peples, i think ur very less in knowledge. Actually read correctly when calculating speed. If they say. “kbps”, its kilo bits per second. and if they says “kBps”, its kilo Bytes per second. So 1 Mbps is actually 1000/8=128 kBps shown in system(Torrent, Firefox Downloader or any downloader).

      I’ve a net setter and it givs me 20-25 kBps Max when i download torrents. It means the speed i get is 25×8=200 kbps, which Idea says is correct.

    6. Hi,

      I have this new 3.1 Mbps USB device but I am only getting speeds around 300 kbps to 500 kbps…

      Just wanted to know if someone can tell me the real conversion rate of 1 Mbps.

      Is 1 Mbps = 1000 kbps or 100 kbps? Just confused.

        Hi,

        Actually whatever speed they say for connection, always assume it will give 15 times lower speed only, just for example if you have bsnl broadband of 2mbps, then it will give you download speed only of 200kbps in extreme good condition, otherwise it will give around 50kbps..

        but for somedays i am getting just 15kbps and lower only even at 2mbps speed, dont know what these companies doing,

        so if reliance claims that they provide 3.1 mbps connection speed, then it would be great even if get speed of 100kbps

        also check if 3.1 mbps connection is the maximum or the minimum in costing., bcoz companies always do marketing which they provide the best available to them but they never say what would cost it….

      What is better in terms of speed and usage given?

      • Sachin says:

        what would be the average upload/download speed, currently i m using BSNL Broadband, but not satisfied at all, for somedays speed has been very low even if i am using account of speed upto 2mbps, getting speed of just 10kbps or lower of download :’(

        I would like to rel 3.1 mbps if its giving speed as they say,

        thanks,
        Sachin

    10. udaya says:

      In Tata Indicom PHOTON. its performance is good enough but some time its seems to be very. Will this problem occur in Reliance wireless broad band also.
      Proper Sale will only fix this problem.

    11. thinkdj says:

      It seems Broadband+ will come out in Reliance WebWorlds only on March 17th.

    12. thinkdj says:
