Trick To Stop Reliance Netconnect Broadband + 3.1 mbps Disconnection When Your Internet Activity Is Inactive or Your Computer Becomes Idle
Recently, I purchased reliance netconnect broadband + till now I am quite happy with the download speed and transfer rate it offers, Reliance claims that the technology they had used with reliance netconnect broadband + enables them to offer 30 per cent higher downlink rate in comparison to any other wireless internet technology available in the country.
The reliance netconnect broadband + device would cost you around 3500 Indian rupees which is non refundable and still you will have to subscribe to data plan to use it which are limited in terms of the usage – the maximum usage with the unlimited plans offers is 10 gb of fair usage. 
Now Some Problems I had Faced Using reliance netconnect broadband +
reliance netconnect broadband + Does Not Connect To Internet Automatically [ No Solution Yet ]
It does not connect automatically to internet you will need to launch the associated program connect to internet manually – Till now I have no solution for this problem but I am coming out with a solution to this problem
reliance netconnect broadband + Disconnects Automatically [ Solution Found ]
As reliance netconnect broadband + is dial up based so it will dial and connect you but if the connection remains inactive because of no application connecting to internet – it will disconnect automatically and will not even display a message that it has been disconnected – this is something I call bad software designing and poorly tested application.
Tweak to keep reliance netconnect broadband + connection active and stop disconnection
The disconnection is based on the fact if any of the application is not trying to connect to internet for some time it will disconnect, so I made a small desktop shortcut which keeps pinging the google server all the time, so once you are connected just double click the shortcut. This small shortcut will call the default ping command on your windows machine and will give an indication to reliance netconnect broadband + software that it is trying to connect to google server by sending some small data packets and reliance netconnect broadband + will not disconnect.
Note: You can minimize this command prompt of pinging google all the time, so that you does not occupy any space
Here is how you can create a desktop shortcut, right click on the empty area and select new >> desktop create shortcut
type the following in the target box – ping www.google.com –t and click ok
Now when ever you connect to internet you just need too double click the shortcut to keep the connection active.

5. Right click on the dial up connection and select properties, click the options tab in the newly opened windows interface of the dial up
Set your reliance dial up connection properties as shown above, click Ok and close all windows – now it will automatically connect when disconnected if the line is dropped
For XP

2. Click Network Connections
3. Right click on the dial up connection and select properties, click the options tab in the newly opened windows interface of the dial up

i am also one of the victim of the reliance netconnect i bought the connection at december and i closed the connection on janauary but he never stopped me sending me bill i went to the reliance world again and again but there was just a consolidated response they say “dont worry” its not a problem we will do it right.
finally i got a notice from court to be present before lokadalath i was shocked then i again went to the reliance world the answer was the same finally i have to pay 3000/ rs without any mistake of mine. there are 1000s of people who daily come to the lok adalath daily all are reliance company victims.
The reliance is the biggest frauds i have paid 3000/ rs without any reason the actual fault was the companies but i was the victim.
how do you think that they have the crores this is the reason. Never go to any reliance postpaid or prepaid products. this is a kind request to all indians never buy these frauds products.
I totally agree with you that this company is made to do frauds and there customer care is worst in this whole universe.
I bought a netconnect card and 10 days back and till now i have not got my connection activated.
The customer care guys give me excuses everyday and then they change the excuse the next day…. Going on let me see if i have a option to get there top bosses mail id so that i can take this up further….
One suggestion to guys planning to take a wireless net cards… never opt for reliance…

I will be getting my Landline~ Broadband connection soon.
I have a reverse situation [ problem if u call it & an IRRITANT ] : even when I am unplugged from the Reliance NetconnectBroadband modem the dialer message keeps popping up & dialing takes place.
Is it possible to truly disconnect & connect back by changing the default at Network Connections ?
Regarding billing I think the best way is to get into “safe-custody mode” B4 attempting to discontinue the service.
I have the same problem…even after i disconnect, the connection icon says i am still connected…how do i stop this ?
Hi Abhishek,
Nice to see your posts on reliance broadband+ issues. I am also facing problems with frequent disconnections and speeds. I tried to implement the solutions mentioned by you. i need one clarification – I have XP on my comp and when we do the settings in network connections, what is PPP mentioned in the box. My dialer shows some thing like .25x ?
please clarify. the ping thing seems to be not working.

Hello,
My Reliance Net Connect Broadband+ Device Stopped Working Automatically, Now when i try to access internet it shows, device not connected or temporarily unavailable., There have no software or hardware changes, Can you please help me out…
I tried removing & reinstalling the driver, but it didn’t worked.
Here i got the solution for this problem, After installing the Reliance netconnect.
Go to Program File ->Reliance Netconnect – Broadband+ ->plugins ->XFramePlugin -> then look for file name Config.xml. right click-> open-with ->Word or Notepad Then look for tag “http://reliancenetconnect.co.in” change this to “about:blank” and save. Now disconnect and reconnect to the RNB+ the page will open as Blank.
i m facing a problem with my reliance broadband data card. it just disconnect every time w/o any notice. then i have to restart my computer then and only then it will start again. tell me what to do in this case???
I am having some issues with the hybrid network. frequently the data card seems to lose this network and it defaults to high speed 1x network which you know is much slower. Atleast it will still work at a slower speed. If i use the broadband+ network alone it disconnects and whenever it loses the network. To summarize this, i found that there are issues with the broadband+ network, there is frequent disconnection, which is really annoying.
Hi everybody this is what it should be
ping http://www.google.com -t
Abhishek has placed the ‘t’ little far.
One more trick I will mention to hack it to Increase speed.
but not in public for safety reasons.
