well.. it is one way... but it'll work only on unsecured networks...
but i guess all indian networks are still unsecure...

Not all indian networks. only one of them, that is bsnl. in Bangladesh only unsecure network is Robi. I dont know about others.

you can try using $_SERVER['HTTP_X_NETWORK_INFO'] as some network operators will give you a unique id
and i know this is a touchy subject here but it IS also possible to get telephone numbers on some networks via same way.

i dont know how much such mobile networks still exist today...
but i guess all indian networks are still unsecure...
maybe few others...

omg, got the point,i never looked it from that persective, i know those phone limitations with connections to the web but i havent gave too much thinking to it. i will google it,I really need to learn. thanks for the info.

Oh, didnt knew that, good to know! but what else could he do, he cant lose any significant number of users just by blocking one phone model. again just my thinking maybe its wrong,i hope it isnt.

basicly... he can't do much...
let's say you block phone model... and i got same phone model... so im basicly blocked and i haven't done anything wrong
ignore above...
let's say you block IP... and now all mobile users with same IP are blocked... and they haven't done anything wrong
ignore all above
let's say you block phone model and IP... now what you get ??
getting the idea ?

btw... Mobile providers.. thea own few IP's for GPRS/and other possible connections...
number of IP's gets bigger with bigger Mobile provider...
and IP get randomly changed... but it's always in use by many many users...
so basicly blocking mobile IP will do the worst...
what will actually happen... user who suppose to be blocked, will get in a time new IP by Mobile provider,
but many users will get IP which is actually blocked on your site...
you do the math...

blocking mobile IP will NEVER block only one user !

He want to block one user (ie one 3110) So he must must block his ip,what else could he do?

[mFreak]

blocking IP means losing users...
