Now you can experience super fast internet connection on the MTNL 3G network by simply connecting the plug and play MTNL Teracom USB 3G modem. The MTNL 3G Datacard can easily be plugged into your computer and you can access broadband on the move. MTNL 3G Datacard will compete with already existing Reliance 3G USB modem and the most preferred Tata Photon plus.
Though you can get mobile broadband connectivity even on your 3G mobile phone but if you spend a lot of time on the internet it is advisable to get a USB modem device. The MTNL Teracom 3G Data Card comes for Rs. 1,799 and provides a speed of up to 3.6 Mbps.
MTNL Teracom 3G data card prepaid offer
You pay Rs. 1,799 for the MTNL USB modem and get free 2 GB download for 3 days. After the free usage you are charged at 1 paisa per 10 KB that comes to Rs 1 for 1000 KB. So if you use 2 GB of additional data you will pay approximately Rs. 2,000.
You also get ½ paisa for per send MTNL (Mumbai + Delhi) calls and STD / local at 1 paisa per second. Apart from this you can send local SMS at 25p, National SMS at Rs. 1, and International SMS for Rs. 2.50. I do not see any need why you would use the USB modem for making calls, but just in case you do have options.
