High Speed Wireless Broadband in India- Plans and Comparison

Initially Broadband in India was termed as anything above the speed of 256Kbps, but now things are changing, we have now broadband plans of 16Mbps and more. Wireless broadband connections are also becoming better in India when compared to previously available speeds of 150Kbps. Most of the mobile operators and ISPs have now high speed USB based modems which can get you a speed upto 3.1 Mbps. Here we are comparing the different plans and coverage of high speed Wireless Internet in India.

 

The major high speed wireless broadband service providers in India are Reliance Netconnect, Tata Indicom Photon+, Virgin Mobile, BSNL and MTS. Below are the comparative chart of all the ISPs. Please note that we have not compared all the plans available.

ISP Name	Max Download Speed	Max Upload Speed	Cost of Device	Coverage (high Speed)	Cost of 2GB Plan	Cost of 5GB Plan	Cost of 10GB Plan	Cost of 15GB Plan	Unlimited plan	Other Features Offered
Tata Indicom Photon +	3.1 Mbps	1.8 Mbps	3600/-	70 Cities	750/-	950/-	1100/-	1500/-	NA	Photon TV
Virgin Mobile VFlash	3.1 Mbps	1.8 Mbps	3499/-	NA	750/-	—-	1100/-	—-	NA	vFlash TV coverage

MTS MBlaze	3.1Mbps	1.8Mbps	3499/-	19 Cities	—-	899/-	1200/-	1500/-	NA

When it comes to the price of USB modems, almost all the ISPs are having the same price of 3500/- although Tata Photon the costliest one. Coverage wise, Tata Photon emerges the clear winner although we are not sure about the BSNL EVDO coverage.

When it comes to data plans, BSNL is the clear winner here with 650/- for unlimited coverage, but speed of the Internet is 2.4 Mbps when compared to 3.1 Mbps offered by others.

If you are a frequent traveler, we would suggest you to take Tata Photon+ as it has the best coverage in India. There are no roaming changes for all the connections listed above.
