Hello

Singtel would be the best selection comparing to Starhub and M1 in terms of coverage.
You can get a prepaid pack for $18, preloaded with $15 credit.
You can subscribe to Mobile Internet for $7 for 7days with 1GB data allowance.
Typical downlink speeds will be around 2 to 4Mbps.

Hope that helps smile.gif

Regards

I actually got singtel's prepaid broadband 3 days unlimited pass for sgd18 since i'll be in singapore for only 3 days. I went to 2 singtel outlets to actually get the prepaid broadband (not normal prepaid), so maybe that's why i'm getting dl speeds of 7mbps instead of 2-4mbps. All 3 mobile operators (singtel, m1 and starhub) offer 3 days prepaid broadband for the same price.

Just for anyone's info, the singtel prepaid broadband can only subscribe in singtel outlet in bugis junction, as i went to another singtel outlet and they asked me to get it there.  sweat.gif

Hi

Noted,

Maybe you are getting the maximum for your prepaid broadband already as they mention 7.2Mbps is the maximum downlink speed right?

And they could be throttling their speed for mobile internet wink.gif

Yup, i suspect that they capped the speed at 7.2mbps as stated on their page for prepaid broadband. I probably hoped for higher speeds or speeds beating malaysia's with all the hype singapore is getting.

Hehe. True that.
Nothing beats our local Maxis and U-Mobile in regards to the prepaid speed which we could obtain.
