    1. On airtel network, you don't have to buy a router or modem. All you need to do is work into an airtel office with your SIM and request for an upgrade to 4G services and they will do it

    most 4g phone are compatible with it
    its will be very good if they add up another band to their existing band
    maybe choose btw band 3 and 7 or other popular ones.
