So far I only managed to get max <5Mbps in Penang. Same results using a 7.2Mbps Huawei Mifi or the USB modem from U Mobile.

Has anyone gotten higher speed than that in Penang?

Do you need the sharing to be mobile or portable?

Bro Mr Lai & palmjack,

I managed to get 8.7Mbps with the U mobile sign up from you in Penang. I was using the broadband with Huawei Honor.


Got this speed near Gurney Mcd area.

i am going around there tuesday, gurney plaza then i test test with zte mf190 and huawei e173, maybe with mifi zte mf60 also

bro... call me.. we go yum cha.. and you can bring me my MNP simcard also )

Well, I just need Internet Sharing at home, not necessarily to be mobile or portable (but if the price difference is not much, why not?). Was told by the U Mobile SA to get some TPLink USB modem if I'm on tight budget, but please advise your recommendations.

get a huawei modem if you want good speed, like e353,e367, then invest a tplink 3420 3g modem router for home wifi...

Thanks for your advice. So, I guess the very first thing I need to do is to purchase is router - followed by a high(er) speed modem (which I think can be considered at later stage).


From a simple search in the Sales Garage, I found these:

3G Wireless Router
TL‐MA180 (Coming Soon) 3.75G HSUPA USB Adapter RM105
TL‐MR3040 (New) Portable Battery Powered 3G/3.75G Wireless‐N 150Mbps Router RM110
TL‐MR3020 (New) Portable 3G/3.75G Wireless‐N 150Mbps Router RM89
TL‐MR3220 3G Wireless‐N (150Mbps) Router 4 UTP RM88
TL‐MR3420 3G Wireless‐N (300Mbps) Router 4 UTP RM99

Is TPlink MR3420 a 3G Modem Router whereby no Modem is needed? If yes, then at RM99, it's a good deal.
Otherwise, I would consider MR3020 or MR3040.

More sharing on this is welcomed

Indoors or outdoor?

Added on July 23, 2012, 1:14 pmIf not mobile, I think there are more option 3G routers.

For non-mobile, you can consider those with build in battery like HAME APR-M1 or TP-LINK TL-MR3040.

3420 is not a modem. is a router...so u still need a 3g modem.

Get the TP-LINK MR3420, you won't regret getting a 300MBPS for ensured connection stability
Anyway, you still need a USB 3G modem

so at the end you need a high speed usb 3g modem for faster speed

umobile either zte mf190, or huawei e173 also up to 7.2 hspa speed only

xelamil, inside car

kimhoong, Im using TL‐MR3020 combo with Huawei E173. Works great. But Im planning to change to TL‐MR3420 as I dont need portable and want more LAN port.

If you are interested in TL‐MR3020 can offer me, used only 2 months.

He need Huawei E367<E372<E398

Or E355 then he won't need to get a router anymore
