Guys..Do you have a wireless prepaid broadband in your place?
In our country we do have.. and currently i am using it right now.. since its only
way i can have an internet..
well the internet connections sometimes a little bit slow that it needs to refresh
to load the website.. cause sometimes the page is not shown..
anyways how is the internet connection at your place?
is it good? or bad?

omg.. prepaid internet usually sucks.. get a post paid plan where you can have a better connection speed... if you need it for portability, i believe there are some post paid plan where it's in the form of mobile. and the speed can go up to 7.2mbps.

before i had this prepaid thing.. i apply for a post paid but sadly when the
internet broadband installer about to install there router thing or what do they
call it. it does not get a signal and i ask why that happen.. the installer said that
its because of the big trees around our home.. so that was it.. but i am still
planning to have it but for now its better to have this very slow connection than nothing.
Am i right?

i would say that the person who came to install the device for you have no knowledge about wireless networks.. or maybe its because of different ISP. but for me i am using wireless most of the time and my hse is also surrounded with alot of plants and trees yet i am still getting good connection. btw i am in sg.

maybe the installer is luck of knowledge.. cause i can't believe it too because five(5) kilometers away from our home there is a smart tower..
I am really disappointed at those time cause i am really excited to have the internet connection but then nothing happens..

I use prepaid internet broadband too. Yeahh if we talk about speed and stability of course its worse than postpaid, but its the only choice for me since i havent a phone at home, so prepaid internet broadband should be choosen. Its cheap, only $10 a month for unlimited access

To my knowledge we dont have prepaid braod band connection here.We have post paid brand band connection with different attractive plans.If you connect from mobile it is not like brand band you have prepaid plans for that.It is not that much past as broadband.I was connecting to internet from my mobile first now i got braodband connection.This is very good and loding pictures so fast.

I havent buy the prepaid kit but the principle of that is just the same when you use your cellphone as a modem which i use right now. If you are always on the go, then wireless internet prepaid is good but it is not stable unlike dsl or other postpaid plan. Anyway, i use smart. I got some problems regarding with 3g signal. With that i cant use my phone as a modem since my net connection by just using gsm would be very slow.

yeah.. i also use my phone as a modem before but then my phone and yeah its the same thing also it got a very slow signal..
but well maybe in the future i will a phone and will use it as modem or i will
definitely a postpaid connection so in that way i could have at least more reliable
connection..
