@Solomon

Thank you. However, I'm not very far from the nearest BTS and I have full bars on my device. I do not think it is a problem with the reception. As I mentioned, the speed is very good - more than I need for most things - but it keeps disconnection every few minutes for about 30 secs to a minute and then it reconnects. Could you do me a favour? Send me the settings you are using e.g APN,Proxy,Port, e.t.c. Thank you.

Hi,
I have been using airtel 3g for soe time without hiccups. This is how to fix the problem
I figured that not all base stations have the 3g signal, so the signal is not as strong if you are far away from a base station that has it. So all you need to do is make sure that you find a location where you get as many bars on your modem as possible and make sure your modems stays there. You can use a USB extension cable to achieve this. That worked for me.

Good People,

I've started using Airtel recently since some people "Misused 'Unlimited internet' " and our speeds were being throttled at 128 Kilobits/Sec(16 Kilobytes/Sec) download. Even though the speed is very good, the connection keeps going off every few minutes and back on. Does anyone here have a solution for that? The solution I was given by their customer care did not work! Thank you!
