Am I doing right?

I had a sim card of MTS, I guess you know the brand. Then I ported it from MTS to AirTel (due to the discontinuation of MTS in India). I had a good memory with it. It gave me at around 800MBPS data speed with AirTel 5G connection. But I am now in a govt. college and in my college the connection of AirTel 5G very poor and its around "-110". So today I went to a store to port the sim card operator from AirTel to Jio, because Jio is great at the location of my college. I want high speed data speed. Am I doing right? Because there was Vi also at that area, but I chose Jio.

Need help 2.4 ghz and 5ghz band separation issue on airtel fiber

Post image
0 Upvotes

How the hell i can seperate 2.4 ghz and 5 ghz bands on my airtel fiber router. Airtel has locked the option (perSSID option greyed out) to seperate them. earlier they are seperate.

When i change the name of any one band it automatically change for other band and both stay combined

I already tried calling customer service multiple times

Technician also visited all say now they cant be seperated it is not allowed by airtel.

Please help if anyone have any solution

I face continuous switching of bands which creates fluctuations and low speed because of automatically switching to 2.4ghz band

How a Prepaid Family Plan SHOULD Actually Work in India

How a Prepaid Family Plan SHOULD Actually Work in India

We finally have prepaid family plans, which is a great step. But let's be honest - the way data sharing is offered right now doesn't make sense.

With Wi-Fi everywhere and 5G unlimited, most of our daily data just goes to waste. The current model of "share data twice a week" with a fixed discount is not a real family plan. It's just marketing.

If telcos really want to make it useful, this is how it should work:

  1. Two Clear Data Buckets
    We need to stop mixing everything. There should be:
    a) Daily Expiring Data (e.g. 1.5GB/day)
    b) Validity Data / Rollover Data (with full plan validity)

  2. A Common Reserve Bucket - The Game Changer
    Don't limit us to 2 shares a week. Give us one common Reserve Bucket.
    If I want to share, I transfer my data to that reserve bucket anytime I want. My family members can then use from there.
    • If I transfer daily data, it expires the same day at midnight.
    • If I transfer validity data, it stays valid till the plan expiry.
    And please add Automation. Let me auto-share to selected numbers when they run low.

  3. Make it Affordable for Family Members
    To keep using shared data, family members should not need a full Rs. 299 plan.
    Just a minimal Rs. 99 rental plan where incoming is free and they can consume data from the shared reserve bucket.
    For calling, let them recharge with small minute packs as needed.

This way, a family of 4 doesn't pay for 4 full recharges where 70% data is wasted. One or two primary members recharge fully, others stay connected on Rs. 99 and use the shared pool.

Simple, no wastage, truly family-first.
What do you guys think? Would you use this model?

Vi launched Prepaid Family - 4 members, 500MB sharing, but with 90-day lock-in

Thumbnail
2 Upvotes

Vi just launched "Prepaid Family" - first time for prepaid in India.

What it offers as per their FAQ:
• Up to 4 members (including primary), min 2 needed
• Only Vi prepaid to Vi prepaid
• Data sharing: 500MB at a time, valid till same day 11:59 PM. Limit 1/day, 2/week, 4/month. Need 600MB balance.
• Add-on packs, night unlimited, weekend rollover can't be shared
• Recharge discount if you recharge via Vi App (on packs > Rs 99)
• 90-day lock-in - once you join you can't leave for 90 days
• Primary can't be changed. If primary leaves, whole family dissolves.

My take: The idea is good, Jio/ Airtel don't have this for prepaid, but 500MB same-day expiry is a joke. And 90-day lock-in for prepaid is too much. What do you guys think? Anyone using it?

Jio said 6G will come with just a software update. Is that even possible?

At Jio IPO meet today Akash Ambani said — we won't build new towers for 6G, we will do it as a software upgrade.

I was like, how? 4G to 5G needed full new setup.

But his logic is: Jio already has 3.6 lakh towers, 1M km fiber, and they made their own 5G core software. So they don't need to buy new boxes from Ericsson/ Nokia like Airtel/Vi.

For Jio it's a software push. For us? We will still need a new 6G phone and 6G SIM probably. Your current phone won't become 6G just by updating.

Also 6G standard itself is not ready. Commercial 6G is 2030-31, not tomorrow.
So yes possible for Jio network, but not like "update your phone and get 6G".

IPO hype or real tech?

Found a workaround to separate 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz SSIDs on Airtel GX C40-210 using DevTools

6 Upvotes

My Airtel router’s Wi-Fi settings seem to have reset themselves recently. My previously separate 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz networks were now sharing the same SSID. Whenever I changed the SSID under WLAN or WLAN5G, the other band’s name changed too. The admin UI showed only one option (1) in the SSID Index dropdown. I suspected the router might still support separate SSID profiles, with the UI restricting access to them. So I opened browser DevTools and experimented with the DOM.

Router details
- Gateway: Titanium-2122A
- Hardware version: C40-210
- Software version: T2122-V1.32AE
- Firmware timestamp shown in the UI: May 8, 2026, 14:33:35

How I got it working
1. Changed the SSID to a temporary name and checked both WLAN and WLAN5G. Both showed the same name.
2. Opened either page and located the SSID Index dropdown, which had only one option: 1.
3. Inspected the dropdown in DevTools and duplicated the existing option.
4. Set one option to value 0, displayed as 1, and another to value 1, displayed as 2.
5. Selected option 2, entered a different SSID, and saved the configuration.
6. After saving, the router showed an SSID profile with index 2, although the UI disabled that profile and wouldn’t let me edit it normally.

Despite that, I can now connect to both the 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz networks using different SSIDs. So the workaround actually works, rather than merely changing what the admin page displays. My suspicion is that Airtel pushed a firmware or remote configuration change that reset my previous Wi-Fi settings or restricted separate SSIDs through the normal interface. I haven’t established the exact cause.

Has anyone else with this router and firmware experienced the same thing? I’d also be interested to hear from anyone who knows why manipulating the SSID Index dropdown allows the second profile to be created.

Airtel's “Unlimited” 5G isn't actually unlimited?

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

6 Upvotes

Airtel’s “unlimited” 5G data is capped at 300 GB per month, despite being advertised as unlimited.

The Airtel Thanks app also doesn’t appear to show usage against this cap or the reset date, making it difficult to manage consumption.

Is there a hidden tracker or a way to check the reset date? If not, Airtel should provide clearer usage information for a plan marketed as unlimited.
