I think you need to know the difference between normal trains and HSR

Its all about the Sat link. Even planes have it, flying twice the speed Mr. Einstein.

Satellite link？India uses sat link for its on-train WiFi？India is indeed a superpower。

What about tunnels？Miles of tunnels that run tens of kilometers long。We are talking about uninterrupted internet access。Smart arze？

10 KM tunnel will be a non issue for a fast trains which can be covered in 2 minutes.

Shanghai Metro Offers Free WiFi Along Line 13

By Juan Paulino Cornejo On November 21, 2014

Shanghai Metro's operator announced on Friday that free WiFi has been made available on the network's Metro Line 13, according to a Shanghai Daily report.

The free Internet sevice is being tested during an ongoing trial period, the Metro operator Shanghai Shentong said.

Passengers can gain access to the WiFi service by inputting their cellphone numbers and a verification code provided.

The wireless connection has a minimum speed of 100 megabits per second and may be accessed along Line 13.

A Shanghai Daily reporter said that while there was no problem accessing the service at the stations, with the connection stable and fast, the signal was lost as trains moved.

The other lines of the Metro will be installing WiFi facilities eventually, according to the log-in page for the service.

Shanghai Shentong, however, did not comment on this possibility.

Shanghai has already started offering free WiFi services on a number of airports, buses and other railway stations, as well as at People's Square and Lujiazui.

The city was planning to establish 150 free WiFi hotspots in 2013, an addition to the hundreds that it already has.

Shanghai's WiFi hotspot project started in 2012. It aims to make Shanghai a "wireless city."

@cirr BTW, it already exists in Europe which is full of tunnels.
China is a new entrant in this field.
Take your dialogue somewhere else.

10 KM tunnel will be a non issue for a fast trains which can be covered in 2 minutes.

So Indian trains fly-past tunnels at average speed of 300km/h。

Congratulations！

Still，internet access will not be available for 2 mins。

What if the train has to travel through a succession of major tunnels that make up，say，300km in total length？

What if the train has to travel a series of tunnels that make up，say，300km in total length？

First check the length and number of your tunnels and then come with some concrete emphasis.
This "what if" type shows you are vulnerable.

Technology exists:

OCLMedia installed Firetide mesh nodes in the 12 miles of tunnels and on the trains. Firetide’s infrastructure mobility architecture allows for uninterrupted connection between the fixed and mobile nodes, delivering seamless Wi-Fi for the passengers.

What technology？

Technology provided by which company？

Tachnology that‘s only functional on slow-moving trains that are the defining feature of Indian rail services？

Haven't you forgotten the fact that the entire mobile telcom infrastructures in India are built using either Chinese gears(vendors like Huawei and ZTE, spring to mind) or hardwares by western companies?
