Using Other sims with bsnl 3G data card


Posted on August 31, 2010 I know many want to know how to use other Sims with bsnl 3g data card (usb modem). My review of bsnl 3G will be coming soon. Bsnl 3g data card is the only one that allows the bsnl sim to be removed. If you remove the back you can take out bsnl 3g sim and use any other sim even non 3g sim. You can even connect using the bsnl 3g software, no hack required.

Just change the settings to the settings of the particular sim and connect as you would with bsnl 3g sim. I tested this with aircel.For aircel the settings are Telephone Number : *99# Username & Password : Leave blank APN : aircelgprs

I got pretty good speeds, these speeds were as good as the 2g data card speeds. So when you need cheap internet connectivity use your aircel, airtel or any other sim to connect to internet using this method.

It only cost 97 Rs per month to get internet on aircel sim. This method could be a good back up when you dont have internet through other means or when you dont want to pay for one full month.It even works on macs Update Here is a video i recently made to prove to everyone that it does indeed work.

Update Here is the bsnl software for bsnl 3G data card. Click on the link below which will take you to Google docs, from there click the file menu and

96 THOUGHTS ON USING OTHER SIMS WITH BSNL 3G DATA CARD

joginder on September 2, 2010 at 9:16 pm said:

hello dear mujhe is bsnl 3g software ki need h plzReply from PrasanthYou can get the software on the usb modem itself. I dont think its available for download anywhere else.

sri on September 9, 2010 at 9:36 am said:

Prasanth;Can we use any unlocked 3g cards other that what BSNL sell?please let me knowReply from PrasanthYou can use any sims even gprs sims. They dont have to be 3g. i used aircel which is a 2g (normal mobile) sim. And it worked, once you know the settings for the sim its as easy as replacing a sim on your mobile.

sri on September 10, 2010 at 10:29 am said:

prasanth,Thanks for reply but I asked you about unlocked datacards which are not from BSNL like 3G datacards used in USA and unlocked like AT&T Sierra wireless 881U etc or any other 3g PCMCIA or USB. Can we use the bsnl 3g sim in that cards and get connected to BSNL 3g?Reply from PrasanthIf you can take out the sim from data card it can be used with other sims.I am not sure if the above mentioned data cards can be used this way.These are the settings for bsnl 3G

sri on September 11, 2010 at 4:24 am said:

thanks prasanth, I will try. I tried using TATADOCOMO with their settings on their website with the unlocked datacard. It is connected but could not able to browse even a single page. Called their customercare but they cant help any if it is not the thru mobile phone connecting.Reply from Prasanathits hard to diagnose this problem without knowing you settings. Here is a solution i can think of, try putting a bsnl sim and use the internet if so your settings are fine, and its the problem with tata docomo blocking the pcs from using their sim.If you cant connect with bsnl sim then make this connection the default connection and try if that helps.Or use a aircel sim which i know works and has no issues.

sachin on September 10, 2011 at 6:57 pm said:

download and use VISIONTEK 3G software first install that software then put bsnl 3g data card with any sim ul not get 3g speed but u will b able to get speed up to 40 to 50 kbps sometimes 70 kbps depends upon the city m using in belgaum jarnataka m getting upto 40 kbps m using docomo in bsnl 3g data card

sri on September 13, 2010 at 9:17 pm said:

Thanks prasanth;I will try that. Lately BSNL launched unlimited 3g for blackberry for 999 rs. we are lucky if we get 3g unlimited for 999 rs per month. I wait your review on this plan to move for good speed.here is the link http://telecomtalk.info/bsnllaunches-new-unlimited-blackberry-plans-for-2g-and-3g/40260/thxReply from PrasanthI dont think this will be useful for you because it will be only for blackberry and you will not be able to use it on the pc. Blackberrys suck at browsing, they are good for email but not for multimedia and internet browsing.Tata photon and MTS Blaze offer similar 999 Rs unlimited plans for pc. But you will not get 3 mbps its 256 kbps unlimited. To get broadband speeds you will have to pay 1800 Rs and 1500 Rs for 15 GB. Only real unlimited 3G plan is offered by BSNL 3G. But it costs you 2750 Rs including taxes per month.I am using this and you can get very good speeds like

hi prashanti want to use Airtel sim card in bsnl3g data card can u plz help me to get the settings for it? thnksReply from PrasanthAirtel has some strict policy where you can only use their sims on phone. If you use it on pc they will charge you data charges. Which can be pretty high at 10 Rs for 1 mb.So i recommend you to get a bsnl or aircel sim for which i have mentioned settings already.These are the settings if you still need themNumber: *99#APN: airtelgprs.comUsername: leave this blankPassword: leave this blank

hey will u give the telephone number for the airtel & vodafone to use in datacardReply from PrasanthAs far as i know its *99#.Both these carriers make it quite hard to use their sims in this method.

prasanth;I just got the 3g sim today and installed in unlocked data card and the signal seems to be too week but connecting. the strength of the signal is -93dBmis there any way to improve the signal, please let me knowReply from PrasanthSome data cards come with a small antenna that can be attached to the device. If your data card has a hole for the antenna, you can get just the antenna on ebay.in for 150 Rs. That helps a bit in improving the signal.Move around the place where you are

Hi Prashant! I use an Apple MacBook 13 inch too. Was wondering if linktop LW272 and LW273 (current offering of BSNL supplied USB data cards) would work seamlessly with Mac? By the way which data card is the one on the pic in this article?Reply from PrasanthIts the Linktop / LW272 3.6 MBPS and works flawlessly on my 13inch macbook. I am using it in mac os x and its pretty cool. Now bsnl has dropped the 3G unlimited charges to 1450 Rs. So this is the best option out there to get 3G speeds.

Hi, i have got BSNL 3G Datacard with a sim from TamilNadu & found it not working in mumbai. The software is showing connected while the Laptop is not connected to the internet. Also the connection doesnt lasts for more than 2 minutes. Can you help me in this regard.Thanks & RegardsV PrasanthReply from PrasanthI thought bsnl is mtnl in mumbai and delhi.If you are staying there for a while i think its better to get a mtnl sim and use it, through the same data card. It could be because you are using mtnl when roaming in delhi.There are no tricks or tips i could give you because its a network issue. If it was speed issue i could have asked you to change the dns to google dns.

himanshudora on October 6, 2010 at 2:50 am said:

Is bsnl 3g datacard works in 2g network. I mean if 3g is not there in any location. can this card work with edge/gprs connection. Have you tried this.Reply from PrasanthYes it will work with 2G sim. The aircel sim i used is a 2G sim. It will also work with bsnl 2G sim, you just have to change the settings to bsnl 2G settings.

Hi prashant! Eagerly waiting for your reply. Also wanted to know if we can use MTNL 3G sim with the BSNL USB data card, since the BSNL 3G does not work in Delhi n Mumbai because of the presence o MTNL there.Also, how would having a triband 7.2Mbps data card prove an advantage over the single band 3.6Mbps data

card?Reply from PrasanthIt should work i dont see why it will not work. I dont know the mtnl 3G settings, but if you know please post them in comments sections if it works. I couldnt get the triband usb card because they said it out of stock. I think its just future proofing yourself, when bsnl gets their network ready to delivery 7.2 mbps, this might be helpful. I dont see it happening in the near feature. i dont think you can get those speeds at the moment.If you find out any information regarding this from bsnl keep me posted.It could be helpful to someone else.

Ravi on October 10, 2010 at 3:37 am said:

NDIS option is not available in new Idea E1550 device, any solution to this pls let me know? Earlier it was coming but in new data card it is not available & while using bsnl 3g into this with apn BSNLNET ,error 619 is coming.Reply from PrasanthI think all the other datacard providers have locked their devices pretty well. So i dont see them working with bsnl 3G sim. I think bsnl doesnt know this is possible and that is the reason we can use bsnl data cards with other sims. I have tried using bsnl 3G sime with tataphoton & MTS etc but none of them worked for me. They didnt even get detected.

Dude you sure it works on a mac book? I bought the 7.2 mbps model data card (made by huawei) and it has only exe files on it! only windows drivers! It gets mounted with a cd icon named http://www.panatar.com!Reply from PrasanthI am using it and replying to this post, from my mac using the bsnl3G data card. Mine is bsnl 3G 3.2 mbps card. I am not sure if the 7.2 one works with mac as i have not tested it.The BSNL 3.2 mbps data card comes with mac drivers on the usb. Once you open the cds that appears on the mac. you can see a folder called mac in it. Download it on to your mac and install.Here is the link to download mac drivers for BSNL 3G. These were the drives that came with my bsnl usb datacard.Install these on mac and see if it works your 7.2 mbps data card.

well. But I put aircel sim and pluged in and it gives a pop up message that Invalid sim card, modem will close. Then I tryed to pur aircel gprs settings you mentioned in this blog, but nothing possible happened, I hope you can help me to come out from this perturb,Reply from PrasanthThe only reason i can think of is if you have set the network selection to manual. Please go to the settings and make sure in the network settings both Operator selection Preferred mode to automatic.Then continue with the procedure i mentioned on the website.Also make sure your aircel sim is activated if its a new sim, and the gprs has also been activated.Just a few suggestions good luck.

This could be because of BSNL network issues there is nothing much you can do other hope they fix it soon. When ever their network is busy or is down this error comes up. Some times 3G data network could be down even though 3G mobile service is working.

Hello Sir, I am using the unlocked modem with the docomo sim. I have a 2g sim. I thought that i would set the network mode to HSDPA/UMTS and receive 3g speeds. However the net connects that too in HSDPA mode ie 3g mode but yet i dont get speed. Its not that i get 2g speed , i get 0 kbps speed. One more strange thing that sometimes the network shows me HSDPA Vodafone and sometimes HSDPA TATA IND. How can i get HSDPA Vodafone when the sim is of docomo. PLease help me. As soon as possible. Its a roaming docomo sim.

set the network settings to manual mode and select the network you want. Dont select the automatic option. That is why its jumping to other networks especially while roaming. Smaller carriers automatically push their users to other networks when roaming. that way they make more money when you use other network. Aircel also does this, its try to jump to idea while roaming because aircel roaming is free. So when you use other networks while roaming they can charge you.

Shivendu on August 22, 2011 at 9:54 am said:

I didnt understand as to what you wanted to say. Can you explain a bit freely as to how I can get the speed that Docomo provides and remember that its a roaming Docomo sim. Also why am I getting 0kbps speed. I should get around 300kbps as I connect to HSDPA mode. Should I recharge a internet pack and then check the speed. Will it make a difference? PLease help me Sir.

prasanth on August 22, 2011 at 12:06 pm said:

You have to be on the same network as your sim. Only then the internet will work, on other networks only voice will work. So first select manually the correct network and then see if you have the correct data recharge. The lack of internet connection could also be because of low balance. On a 2G sim you will only get 2G speeds not 3G. Even if you select 3G network only voice will work. You cant get 300 kbps on 2G sim the best you might get is around 140 kbps.

Shivendu on August 22, 2011 at 1:23 pm said:

One thing more Sir that when I search for operators that is when I do manual searching for network I dont get the Docomo network listed in the network list. In

that case what should I do. Which sim would be the best for me? I live in Kanpur UP. Please assist me. Cant we talk more freely as I think this issue would take long on places such as facebook or orkut or even on Email chatting accounts like gmail and yahoo. Please reply soon

May be your area has no docomo support. That is the only reason i can think of. if it doesnt show up in the list there is not much we can do. Trying to fix computer problems through chat is really impossible because there could be so many issues. try and get help from some local tech guy, its hard to fix something over the internet without seeing all the settings and configurations.

prasanth on August 22, 2011 at 12:08 pm said:

Before removing the bsnl sim select the network as manual mode. then try and change the sim. Also try and select the aircel network manually once you put the sim. As you can see in the video i got aircel sim working on bsnl data card

Rana on August 22, 2011 at 2:23 pm said:

Prasanth as per u I can use only aircel or bsnl sim for internet through BSNL data card. That means we have only 2 options? Is there any data card through which I can access any sight by inserting any sim of any company.

Other sim will also work because you can manually select the networks. i dont have other sim and dont know their settings. Other sim should also work if you know the correct settings. Get a datacard that supports all sims and is not locked to any one network. you can buy them at any computer store, you can put any sim you want and use it with any network. They also cost the same, if you dont want to commit to a particular network you can get your own datacard and put any sim you want.

i want to know that, using 2g sim what will be the downloading speed using bsnl 3g data card?

prasanth on September 1, 2011 at 6:11 pm said:

2G speeds, this trick only useful if you want to use internet on the cheap not fast. You can only get about 30-40 kbps which is only good for checking mail and browsing some sites slowly. Dont expect 3G speeds, but if you use aircel sim you can get on internet at 90 Rs per month.

I was using airtel net free card about 1year through my mobile but my mobile got damage so I want to take a usb modem of vissiontek 2000rs. But just I was looking it online I got this site if I brought bsnl 3g usb stick then can I insert airtel card in it. I know all settings of it.

prasanth on September 7, 2011 at 4:39 pm said:

You can but i dont know the airtel settings, as you can see from the site i got aircel working on my bsnl data card. Aircel is cheaper and has more bandwidth per month too around 3 GB limit where as airtel only offers 2 GB limit

surya narayan singh on September 7, 2011 at 1:48 pm said:

Hi prasanth, Before im used vodafone 2g sim with my beetel 3g unlocked dongel,speed is good.after that one of my friend suggest me for aircel 3g sim and recharge with 2g pack,then definitely get 3g speed.as per my friends suggestion,i did that but now i got very slow speed even im not able to open my mails also. help me

prasanth on September 7, 2011 at 4:43 pm said:

You cant get 3G speeds with a 2G pack. Even if it would have worked for a while they would have fixed it by now.

3G is quite costly in India at the moment. The cheapest option to get good speeds is to get a broadband connection with a land line. Or To get a 2G sim which have below 100 Rs internet @ 2-3 GB per month, but this connection is slow and you have to be patient with it.

prasad on September 9, 2011 at 10:33 am said:

what about the docomo 3g broadband?is it good device to buy?

prasanth on September 9, 2011 at 3:36 pm said:

All the devices are good. But 3G plans are costly, i dont think docomo plans are cheap. What is the use of getting a 3G device if you cant use 3G. Its best to go for a third party 3G modem in which you can put any 3G sim. With docomo one you cant change to other networks when they offer better 3G plans etc.

Hi Prasanth, Actually am havind Reliance Netconnect, i bought for my Pc its speed upto3.1mbps.but am getting 230kbps only in my home any possible to get higher speed? but am getting outside 3.1mbps speed Pls reply. Best Regards Hari

prasanth on September 11, 2011 at 4:35 pm said:

Makes sure you select the 3G network, the data cards can go to 2G network when the 3G network is not available that is the reason for low speeds. In the network settings select only 3G network and dont set it to automatic. If the signal is weak in the house the data card might be switching to 2G.

yugal sahu on September 13, 2011 at 1:23 pm said:

hy prashant how can use bsnl 3g data card for other sim like data docomo, videocon

prasanth on September 14, 2011 at 9:05 pm said:

I have only tried it with aircel, it should work with other sims if you know the settings. Use the regular gprs settings for your sim and it should work

Pintu on September 15, 2011 at 10:57 pm said:

hi Prasanth, i bought a idea Net Setter(Huawei E1732), and the 3g signal i am receiving is reeeeeal WEAK. Guy from whom i bought said it is the best for kolkata, and if i wish he will break the sim lock after 2 months. i would like to know if i let him break the sim lock, would it be possible to use it with any other sim. Or it is all an addition to the already wasted money??????? Also are there any plans to get arond 600kbps unlimited speed on these data cards for about 600 bucks per month?? I would appreciate your reply Thank you.

prasanth on September 16, 2011 at 7:10 am said:

If you get it unlocked make sure it works with other sims before it, i dont think it can be unlocked. Before you buy a datacard you can call up the carrier and ask them to give you a demo at home that way you can see how the signal is. At the moment no one is offering unlimited 3G data. You can get unlimited data on 2G at 150 kbps for 500-900 Rs. MTS, Reliance, Tata photon etc offer this. The best option for your price point is bsnl landline broadband, which costs 750 Rs for 512 Kbps unlimited.
