Hutch's proxies have stopped working with HutchWorld (Rs. 99 per month GPRS) in Karnataka. Accessing internet on computer through HutchWorld is no longer possbile.
Further, data usage charges make even browsing on the phone expensive.
Please suggest a suitable service provider in Karnataka for accessing unlimited GPRS internet on computer. A subscription free from data usage charges, time limits and download limits is preferable.

Where are you? Why da heck take up jazzy names & then shy away from saying you from India !
Orange in Bombay, is going to allow new postpaid n All prepaid cards to go with the 99/- basic scheme till Sep 05.
Pan India, the CDMA providers, the Tata's n Reliance have good plans.
In MP/Mah., Idea charges the least, service is ok ok (used it when in Poona as they partner Hutch)
Airtel ofcourse is again Pan India & aggresive. Support thou isa fcuk up!
I suggest stick to Hutch (prepaid)till Sep. @Rs. 99/-

And even on top of the 199/- theres' volume (usage) charge. Funny that they subsidize prepaid users, by charging 499+ usuage based charge to the Postpaid (billing) customers of 'Orange Access' ( the full service for web access using onez phone as modem). And that too a measly 14-15 kbps (again Max. speed- actual may be less) with the MMS facility barred  Talk bout Customer being King!
I'd rather connect a dial-up serv. thru cellphone- pay the "fixed" outgoin call charge- use BT to access web on Comp. ! |

@sin...all providers have plugged their loopholes now...so no point in looking for proxies that may work...get a data connection and pay for it like an honest tax paying citizen
