USB dongle · Cat 4 · JACS Solutions · network data checked 2 Oct 2026

✔ 2 networks good◐ 2 limited · Evidence A · 3+ sources per network · network data checked 2 Oct 2026

Mostly. Good on BSNL and Jio; limited on Airtel and Vi. The reasons are on each card.

4G bands in India · colour = frequency

below 1 GHz (coverage) 1–2.7 GHz 3–7 GHz mmWave · dashed = the JACS TD191-B lacks it · • = a main band

Why limited

Airtel · Main bands on Airtel: B3 B40. The JACS TD191-B lacks B40, so coverage or capacity will be patchy.

Vi · Main bands on Vi: B3 B40. The JACS TD191-B lacks B40, so coverage or capacity will be patchy.
