How is MTNL 3G service in Delhi & Gurgaon?

I will be visiting Delhi (GK-II) and Gurgaon (DLF Phase IV) for a few weeks and I am bringing a GSM/3G-capable smartphone with me. I know from prior experience that Vodafone has excellent call quality in those locations, but no 3G service yet, so I'm trying to decide whether to get a Vodafone SIM or an MTNL 3G SIM.

Can anyone comment on the MTNL 3G network quality in those areas?

MTNL 3G speeds are awsome. Only drawback being, difficulty in finding recharge vouchers.

Thanks

What about call quality?

Call quality is good, however, network reliability is suspect!

If I were you I would get both the SIM cards.

If you are arrving in Jan, Get Airtel - their 3G service would be up and running by then.

Thanks bro. It looks like I need to get a SIM with the Trump 3G Jadoo prepaid plan. Do you know where I might be able to get this done with same-day (preferably instant) activation?

I've found about half a dozen different sets of APN settings to get 3G in Delhi on my Motorola DROID 2 Global and none so far have worked. I have managed to get the "3G" and "H" icons in the notification bar but when I open up my browser and try to load Google I get the following error: "ReferenceError: gp is not defined"

First I went into the dialer and entered *#*#4636#*#* to get to the Testing menu -> Phone information -> Set preferred network type to "WCDMA only"

Then I went into the network selection menu and selected the "MTNL 3G" network and created an APN with the following settings:

APN: gprsppsdel
Proxy: 172.16.31.10
Port: 9201
Username: mtnl
Password: mtnl123
Authentication type: PAP
APN type: default
(All other values empty or automatic)

The "3G" and "H" icons indicate that I'm getting the signal at least, but I am not able to actually get data. Anyone have any ideas what the problem could be?

You don't have to put any proxy . I filled in the value for only the APN and it was working for me. Your APN is wrong. Put the APN accrding to this:

SERVICE APN

3G Prepaid pps3g
3G Postpaid mtnl3g
HSDPA Prepaid ppshsdpa
HSDPA Postpaid mtnlhsdpa

Found it on the internet thought it might help

Unfortunately neither of these worked When I did those settings the 3G and H notifications I was getting disappeared. Apparently it's a little different for Android phones.

The settings I found were for the Nexus One (also Android) from this link: http://www.technixupdate.com/working...hi-and-mumbai/

It gets me the signal notifications but I think one setting must be off since I can't actually get the data.
