I visited to one of the local exchange at Saravanampatti, Coimbatore to enquire about the EV-DO. At that time BSNL officials testing the EV-DO coverage. Actually in Coimbatore – they have installed EV-DO in 2 towers(Race course and Ganapathy). And it started function from yesterday (16-Jan-2008)
My place is near to Ganapathy (6-7 kms by road)- so they had checking the signals . In saravanmpatty they are not able to get the EV-DO signal, but they are able to receive the 144 kbps. So they plan to increase the height of the instrument at the tower.
They suggest me to wait for another week – so that they can check the signal strengths fully.
From their view- they are able to get the signal from 800-900 kbps on EV-DO on different areas within the coverage.
Also the cost for the connection is Rs 550 per month and the device rent is 200. So it comes 750 rs per month + tax.
They are treating me well 
BSNL is the first to roll out EVDO Internet in India. The EVDO was launched unofficially back in September 2007 by BSNL and now, after the establishing better EVDO network, BSNL has started to launch officially in most parts of the country. Since it is a very new service, the official information is very little. So we decided to set up a unofficial portal with user-based information and more. So we hope this site helps you to get information regarding BSNL's New EVDO service. Keep visiting the site and dont forget to register in the

Hi im using EVDO in ramnagar(Gandhipuram) its some what nearer to ganapathy but my EVDO speed is only 67.4 kbps max.
EVDO very very waste process bcuz of the speed. at max its speed is 67.4 kbps.
I have purchased EV-DO, but there is no tower signal in saravanampatti where big BPO industries and great business people are there. i have laptop also, but no signal. BSNL told they are installing tower as soon as possible in saravanampatti. if they do it soon, i can start my business. else all the money i invested in evdo, and other instruments is an utter waste. so BSNL authorities kindly take action immediately for installing evdo tower in saravanampatti.
kindly do the needful at your end.
please install evdo tower in saravanampatti as soon as possible – BSNL authorities
