RE: dk

There are differences:

1. Huawei doesn’t support WEP Wi-Fi encryption

2. Huawei doesn’t have a Web UI, so it is impossible to configure it without plugging into a USB port and installing its software, it’s also impossible to configure from devices like Apple iPod Touch

3. Huawei doesn’t allow you to access microSD files over the Wi-Fi

Roger: Huawei also have their version of Mifi. The Huawei E5830 wireless modem is basically just like the Mifi. I got a few friends using them and it’s pretty good. Around 5 hours battery life.

Check out Ebay to see if anyone selling it.

May I check where can I buy Mifi 2352 without signing up any plan with any of the service provider? I’m already a Broadband on Mobile user. Was wondering if I can slot in my current sim card into this device and hook onto Internet. If yes, I badly need to know where I can get this seems highly ultra portable device!

Thanks!

Thanks dk for the review. We need more like this in Singapore to help the consumers out.

This is more of a M1 broadband question but have you tried using Skype using the mobile broadband network? With all the issues such as latency and dropped connections I’m wondering if Skype was even useable at all.

Unlike gaming Skype at least (non-video) doesn’t require heavy bandwidth.

Thanks!!!

Karen: Out of the 3 Telcos in Singapore, M1 is the slowest. I suspect it might be because they have too many customers on unlimited plan. But if you are looking for a Mifi, M1 is the only choice since the other 2 telcos doesn’t have it.

Are you going to use this for mobile or at home? If you are going to use at home, I suggest get a proper broadband. The Mifi is more for mobile and not suitable to replace your home internet connection.

m1 is selling their plans for about S$36.00 per month. Based on your experience with M1, do you think it is worth to pay that amount for that MIFI plan?

How does it compared to Singtel Mio 3mbps Wireless home connection?

I’m considering of terminating my Singtel Mio plan and subscribe to m1 for my internet service at home
What do you think of that?

Victor: Yes, you can use sim card from another operator. The device is not locked to M1. But you need to configure the APN under the setting.

Yes and no dk.

It can be powered by USB port. or you can power it using AC adaptor. The only difference is that it doesn’t have battery pack.

btw, how many batteries does it require and how long does it last before it gets flat ?
