101:Fire emergency number. Is this how is should behave?

Posted: 28 Sep 2013 02:21 AM PDT

I live in noida and on my way to office saw a tree catching fire in the sector premises itself. To make things worse there was an electric pole adjacent and flames were touching the wire.
So I called up 101 from my mobile to inform about the fire. Guess what was the reply.
"aapki call Delhi fire service mein aayi hai. Noida ke liye local number se call karo".
Fire is an emergency should it be handled this way?

Marvels Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.

Posted: 28 Sep 2013 02:21 AM PDT

 

The Joss Whedon drama based on the Marvel Comics property has landed a series order at the Disney-owned network, ABC announced Friday.

The ABC Studios project is based on Marvel Comics' secret intelligence organization that has appeared in countless titles, including Iron Man, Captain America and The Ultimates, since being introduced in the 1960s. The military law-enforcement agency's moniker stands for Strategic Hazard Intervention Espionage Logistic Directorate, which also has evolved over time in the comics.

ER's Ming-Na stars as Agent Melinda May, The Avengers' Clark Gregg reprises his role as Agent Phil Coulson, Killing Lincoln's Brett Dalton is set as gruff rising star Agent Grant Ward, Elizabeth Henstridge as science whiz Agent Gemma Simmons and Iain DeCaestecker as tech guru Agent Leo Fitz, with Nashville's Chloe Bennet set as Skye, a superhero-obsessed woman.

24 (Anil Kapoor Version)

Posted: 28 Sep 2013 02:11 AM PDT

One of my best TV series of all time becoming desi!

Colors, Anil Kapoor ink deal to broadcast '24' in India > afaqs! news & features

Anil kapoor, please do some justice with Jack Bauer.

I also read something about cast: Chunky Pandey is in it :D

As for the cast and crew, Kapoor has promised the channel that there will be no known names on the show. However, word is that Ronit Roy, Atul Kulkarni, Chunky Pandey and Vidyut Jamwar will essay some of the lead roles. And, as we already know, Kapoor will play the main protagonist, anti-terror squad leader Jack Bauer, essayed by his favourite actor Keifer Sutherland in the original version. What's more? Abhinao Deo of Delhi Belly fame will direct the show. One wonders though, who will play the middle-eastern leader Omar Hassan, the role bagged by Kapoor in the American series...

CDMA vs GSM

Posted: 28 Sep 2013 01:17 AM PDT

Hello Everybody

 

My mom is Tata Docomo CDMA (Tata Indicom) in Bangalore/Karnataka.

We don't have any problems with coverage or tariff so far.

We have IDEA, Tata Docomo GSM and Airtel apart from Tata Docomo CDMA.

We have visited many places such Tirupati, Chennai etc in which besides Airtel, Tata Docomo CDMA was only operator which was having coverage.

I would become surprised by seeing Tata Docomo CDMA's coverage as GSM is widespread and there is option of Tower Sharing in CDMA.

I have also not seen any other operator even coming close to call quality when comparing with Tata Docomo CDMA.

May be it could be because of the handset too which is Samsung Metro TV bought several years ago.

The call would very clear and loud.

 

Now i am looking to convert the number to a GSM operator to buy her a good phone.

Can a GSM operator offer the superior call quality and coverage CDMA Technology offers ?

 

Even though the topic i am discussing here might be focused, the answer to my question would have broad meaning.

So, please share your thoughts on this.

 

Plan change procedure

Posted: 28 Sep 2013 01:04 AM PDT

Until now I had separate plans for landline and broadband on the same number. But in recent months the calls made via landline have become negligible. I was thinking of shifting to a combo plan. What is the procedure for it? Will opting for the combo plan disable the landline plan or will I have to request for that separately?

BSNL Broadband: How to Troubleshoot Frequent Disconnection

Posted: 28 Sep 2013 12:57 AM PDT

1. Post your SNR and Attenuation values. Table for speed less than 8 Mbps


Posted Image
If your values are bad, ask the line man to give a clean line. Make sure there are no joints or non insulated parts.

2. Make sure all connections come after splitter. Follow this diagram


Posted Image


Bypass the splitter, connect the line directly to the modem and check.


3. Check if splitter or ethernet cable is faulty. Use a spare one and check.


4. If possible get a friend's modem and check. That will confirm if modem is faulty or not.


5. Do you get power reset ? If yes, check modem's power adpater and make sure it is functioning well.


6. Try GDMT mode in modem and check.

A massive fire which gutted down the sets of Indian comedy show "Comedy Nights with Kapil" on Wednesday caused several crores worth of damage.

Several high-end equipments used in the show were destroyed in the fire that broke out in Goregaon's Film City in Mumbai. There were no casualties reported, but the show's producers have incurred a heavy loss of around ₹20 crore.

BSNL broadband: Can't access websites while using a PPPoE connection

Posted: 28 Sep 2013 12:22 AM PDT

Hi,
I got a new BSNL broadband connection last week. I am on NIB 2(ip 117.xxx.xxx.xxx). I am using Type 2 Utstarcom wa3002 router with my connection. The problem that I am facing is, I cant open or access certain sites like microsoft.com, mail.yahoo.com ,icicibank.com, thepiratebay.com etc.. Rest all sites like google,this site etc open normally.

What I did to overcome the problem

1).Tried OpenDNS, 4.2.2.2 and all DNS available from BSNL
2). Change the MTU setting to 1492 from 1500
3).Disabling the firewall of the router.

But still, there seems to be no change in the problem.When I called up dataone center, they were all acting like noobs telling me to change DNS and stuff like that:ashamed:. When I access the sites via proxy, they work fine and whats more, I downloaded VS 2008 from microsoft(3.3GB) without any problems, cuz I had the direct download link for that. Any suggestions that anyone would like to give?:)

Regards,
LiNkEr

Tikona Broadband User Experiences

Posted: 27 Sep 2013 10:50 PM PDT

Thought I would start another thread for people who have actually used this service to describe their experience.

They have started advertising quite heavily in Bombay and their plans seem pretty decent. Their 600kbps UL plan would be excellent for me.

I really like the way they have bill limits for their limited plans as well. That shows they understand consumer concerns about enormous bills and have designed their plans to allay them.

So how good is their service? Any down time? How quickly do they respond to complaints? Really any information from people who have used Tikona would be appreciated.

Spectranet FOX

Posted: 27 Sep 2013 10:18 PM PDT

recently i got this spectranet connection. They did underground fiber optic cabling and started the service called spectranet FOX in my area. the plan is 12 to 16 mbps  for 6 months. looking at the speeds they will provide, i got my airtel BB service discontinued.

 

I AM HIGHLY DISSATISFIED WITH THE CONNECTION.

 

 1) promised speeds 12-16 mbps ,you never get the promised speeds throughout the day. even right now i am getting just 3-5 mbps.

     why do ISPs do this? come on! if you dont want to give constant speeds then why the hell do you have to make false promises?

when they visit your home for a demonstration, such good marketing skills, overselling their product, promising this and that. 

but when it comes to the connection, its very poor.

 

2) its a daily glitch in the connection. from timings 9 pm to 12 pm i always get very low speeds like 1 mbps and very high pings touching 200 ms. i've got to play online games , but with such a pathetic ping im not able to play the games properly. and this is very irritating!

and this happens everyday

 

3) when i had the airtel connection i used to watch alot of youtube, surf internet and the data limit was 8 gb. with these activities not even half of my data limit was used, and around 4-5 gb was left unused per month.seldom, i used to download movies because once the data limit was reached, then speed degraded to 256kpbs(reason to change spectranet ISP). using this connection, in last 1 week the 5 gb of data usage has been shown in my spectranet account(5gb data volume used)

i myself have downloaded around 700mb of data THAT'S IT! i can accept even if i had watched 1080p HD videos on youtube, i could accept that i could've consumed data but still cant find what has used 5gb. if it could've been a theft over wi-fi, but whenever i am at home i connect through LAN cable and switch of the wifi service and whenever im not at home i switch off the router. then how come 5 gb of data has been consumed?! and i cant buy this fact that ONLY net surfing at watching videos on youtube would've consumed so much of data. i really find that spectranet is a cheat on this part. 

 

if someone using the same net plans from spectranet and facing the same issues please reply and put forward some solutions to my problem, so as how to get the promised service from my ISP.

 

 

 

Windows 8.1 (Windows Blue) Updates

Posted: 27 Sep 2013 09:52 PM PDT

What to Expect (And What We Want) From Windows Blue
 

 

More tile sizes: If Windows Phone can support three tile sizes (small, medium and large), then Windows 8 should absolutely support them, too. The tiles are much larger on Windows 8, so smaller sizes would be easy to tap with a fat finger. It will also make for a more personalized Start Screen, which the Windows 8 Modern UI is all about.

Updated Mail: The Windows 8 Mail app needs some extra power. Simplicity is great, but some basic additions would help it be a more useful tool. Microsoft should add support for POP3 accounts and incorporate features available in Outlook.com like drag and drop. A report from ZDNet suggests that this might come prior to the Windows Blue update.

Ability to use multiple browsers in Modern UI: This is a small request, but it addresses what can become a major annoyance in Windows 8 if you ever use more than one browser. Right now, even if a browser is available as a Windows 8 app, it will only work in the Modern UI environment if it is set as your default browser. If it's not your default browser, then it will open in the desktop. That goes for the built-in IE10 browser and other offerings like Google Chrome.

Boot to desktop: This is one of the most common Windows 8 demands, especially for business users. It should definitely be an option for Windows 8 Pro users, who do most of their work in the desktop environment. It's thoughtful and will make a large number of users happy without much work. But it should absolutely not be an option for Windows RT, where the opposite should be true.

Make it possible to manage everything in Modern UI: Alternatively, if you want to stay in the Modern UI 100 percent of the time, Microsoft should let you stay there 100 percent of the time. Especially since the Modern UI is the future of Windows. Microsoft should have the Task Manager, Windows Explorer and Control Panel available as Modern UI apps. You should be able to change your screen resolution and manage your files without being forced to the desktop.
