Most of EVDO users in Bangalore might not be able to use EVDO and is just limited to use CDMA 1x. We thought this might be another EVDO outage in Bangalore. But this is different story. Due to some technical issues, BSNL has now shifted their main EVDO exchange from Whitefield to Telecom Building near Vidhan Soudha. This led them to change the PRL (Preferred Roaming List).
So in order to continue using EVDO (2.4 Mbps) service in Bangalore, users have to get their device reconfigured at their nearest BSNL telephone exchange. Getting your device reconfigured is free and may take few hours (if the person in charge of the duty is busy).
If you are using CDMA 1x (144 Kbps) service, you don’t have to reconfigure your device.
Thanks to our members, jameandrew and shaaradu for sharing the information regarding the change in main exchange and PRL.
If you still have any doubt, please feel free to post a question in this thread.
