Hi,
Has anybody use the Reliance WiMax (Broadnet) services? I ammore interested in their services in Mumbai. Good, Bad, Ugly? Apparently they install separate antenna for each connection. The size of this is as big as a laptop monitor or such, thats what the marketing exec told me.
What I want to know is - 1) compatibility with Linux Boxes
- does it work during the rainy season? Considering that rains in
Mumbai or Panvel is slightly on the extreme side ;), does it work fine during the rainy season? I guess the same applies to the DTH setup even.
i have used reliance wimax with centos linux in panvel. it works nice. reliability is also good. i felt it is cheaper also. i have taken static ip from reliance as i got some issue with their dhcp service on linux.
now it is working fine.
Thanks for the info. What was the issue with DHCP service? Do you recommend Static IP?
It will be better with Static IP as per my experience in Panvel. I am not sure about other places.
