I have one of their new 3G keys.. Orange shop assured me it would work where I stay. Not so.. it picks up HSUPA, which I'm told is the best of the 3G networks (not surprising, can see the cellphone tower from my house) BUT, the nework utilisation rate is SO poor - e.g. 0.1%, means I can't use internet (eg hotmail, google, facebook) but luckily, can skype. Someone has told me network utilisation is to do with the line capacity running from the cellphone tower back via cables to the MTelecom system, and so have been told there's nothing I can do.... is this correct? Does anyone understand this stuff? Cheers! :) Problems on Orange 3G? I have one of their new 3G keys.. Orange shop assured me it would work where I stay.

Sometimes I used to get sms from my girlfriend but the number displayed was something like +230000. It was clear that something was wrong with the network as I got these types of numbers from may friends when they were texting me. But Customer Service said that my mobile is to be blamed. Since then, I switched to EMTEL and I never looked back again. lol Being a former user of Orange (at that time Cellplus), I am aware of these technical glitches.

Their counter for using the web has also gone haywire. They charged me rs35 for only going on the mobile version of the google search. When I complained they told me that there was a virus on my device and it was downloading things without my permission and when I told them that I got the same problem with 7 of my other phones she told me that I had viruses on them all!

It gives the impression that Linux is buggy … I dont like that I never said Linux is buggy. I use Linux myself and compared to Windows, its world difference. If you read well i mentioned clearly that "this software is Linux based and is known to have some bugs when proper update of entry is not done" . . . WHEN PROPER UPDATE OF ENTRY IS NOT DONE. As for you people, if you want to be sure that you or your friend is not using a duplicate sim card with same number as another person and that you don't want to encounter same problem, drop by a Tele-shop and ask them to check if there is duplicate entry of your number in their system. If they ask you why to check this, tell them about the problem mentioned above. Cheers . . . @Bruno
