    Considering the speed with which wi-max plans are being rolled out by reliance, they may just do it. The strange thing is they have rolled wi-max (in bangalore) targeting home segment rather than office. So the connection needs a user/pass everytime you login making it difficult to configure in office environment. Anyways, people (like me or my friend’s company) have figured work arounds and it is a reliable and fastest 2 MBps connection you can get in bangalore!

    The other wimax provider aircel is no way as fast or wide spread.
