Data speeds are increasing with improved network capability. You will enjoy significantly higher mobile data speeds where there is 3G coverage. If you are outside the range of 3G coverage, the service automatically switches to the GPRS data network. EDGE and HSDPA connectivity is available on certain networks providing greater choice and speed.
You don't need to use your mobile phone to connect and set-up is easy. The cards come with 'Dashboard' software that lets you control and monitor your usage.
A great feature is that you can stay connected around the clock - but you only pay for what you send and receive, so you never have to think about opening and closing connections. |
