Thanks for the Info. By the way, do you know Huawei do come out with any 4G Mifi which come with lan port??

Hi All,
I am thinking to use the mifi modem below with Umobile UMI 18/28/48.
21Mbps Huawei E5331 HSPA+ MiFi Modem Router, UNLOCKED

Did anyone try that before?

as long as the device is uNLOCKED, it can use on all ISP broadband data/mobile internet plan

Hi guys, I have just changed my simcard to 4g simcard and I am using Huawei E589, however, I couldn't get 4G signal though the Maxis ppl said my 4G is on already. any advices?

minisim, microsim or nanosim?

Normal sim, problem solved. I reset the modem. Thanks.

Thanks, did look around and only found out that the huawei E5151 like what u mention got LAN port. But really hope there are brand with 4G with LAN port. Otherwise, bought the 3G one then few month later 4G launch and the 3G one will be obsolete and waste of money too...

Why do you need a LAN port? Buy E398 + AF23 mobile router

Will connect the Lan to PS3, won't be sharing the internet with other (for myself only). The one u suggest will cost me RM600++ if get it in Malaysia. That the double of getting E5151.

Get any USB modem and get a 3G/4G router (TP-LINK MR3420)

If you already have a pc, you can connect your PC and PS3 via LAN cable, then share the Internet connection via your 3G/mifi modem, but i never own any gaming console so i don't know whether if it's work for you
The downside is, your pc must swtich on if you wanna connect your PS3 to Internet
TPLink 4G router isn't cheap either (On SGP lah)

How much is a MR3420 there? It is MYR85 here

V2 is 60SGD something lah, here everything got 7% GST + Distro markup + blah blah = expensive loh
If Amazon open online shop on Singapore, local computer/electronic shop all can close door already

And never ever buy ANY Huawei products on SGP, they're f***** expensive here, E3276/E8278 220 dollar something, E5776 $335(local online shop selling 265 only ), E5151 $180 and so on.

1024kbps That's ridiculous, meanwhile most people using ISP provided fibre router and modem

Meanwhile, doing business in SG would be high profit

Never try this before, will try it in the future.
But something really confuse me, previously sharing streamyx with housemates. And the confusing part is:-
When I connect both my PC and PS3 to the streamyx using WIFI simultaneously, can't really play any online game through the PS3. But when I turn off my PC wifi doggle, I can play all the online game through PS3 smoothly. Not sure what happen....

They're just milking us, You should check out their latest mobile broadband plans, after exceed free data bundle, 1GB = 10 SGD they do sell us mifi and other router for cheaper price, or free, but it's still unreasonably expensive for 1GB data charge.
You guys should be grateful for the current price offer by Msia ISPs

Nope, doing business is SG is highly unprofitable, most ppl here either buy from Amazon or local seller with cheaper price, or second hand one

Btw sorry for the ranting and swearing lol

IP conflict may be?
21mbps mifi or whatever HSPA modems, actually may still have hopes for faster speed, i dunno what happen to my HTC Butterfly, i tested my 4G sim card on it to download some anime with utorrent, but i got near 2MB/s of download speed, ran Speedtest also got shocking result


Most of my HSPA modem can't reach this kind of speed, and yeah i'm pretty sure my HTC phone don't have LTE support
Glad i bought this phone over other expensive brands

That price is definitely ridiculous for mobile internet
At least their home internet plans is good and with proper TV

Amazon stuff hardly taxed in SG?

For Mobile broadband, currently only Singtel 4G prepaid is the best choice, the rest are mostly /facepalm.
Yeah their home internet plan are very cheap, But there are still a lot of complains on their Facebook lol

As long as the single purchase don't exceed 400SGD, else 7% GST, but 7% is just $28, mostly electronic goods will get charged.
Local shop price has no hope to catch up the amazon price, Even if you buy from Amazon using proxy service, the overall price still much cheaper than local, except no loca warranty.
