With the introduction of these services Australian Internet users are no longer tied to the PSTN phone network. This portable broadband is uncomplicated to configure and won’t break the bank. Businesses all over Australia are beginning to understand its advantages and how it can change the way they currently do business. With unbelievable speeds up to 7.2Mbps (faster than many ADSL connection in Australia) Wireless Broadband Internet releases your work force from their desk top. Imagine a building site office. Previously they would have to go to the expense of getting a phone line installed to have internet access, and pay monthly rental bills on the line, not to speak of the connection fee for ADSL. Now all they have to do is connect to a Wireless Broadband plan and they are on line. No connection fees and no phone monthly line rental. Now we are talking. Similarly the road warrior, previously travel & accommodation arrangements were tied to where internet access could be accessed. Did the hotel have internet access (and at what price). With wireless it is easy, just connect to a Wireless Broadband plan and you will be online instantly. Doesn’t that sound a lot simpler? Until recently Wireless Broadband Internet was prohibitively expensive but recent price changes have seen incredible value. One of the best value deals is 6 Gb of data at HSDPA UTML speeds from only $49.95 per month with coverage to over 97% of the Australian population. With Wireless 3G The great advantage of Wireless 3G Broadband Internet is that you can go online anywhere there is service coverage. The other benefit that will plea to internet users is that Wireless Broadband can be accessed on the move as it will roam from base station to base station.

It configures the connection for you then click on ‘connect to the internet’ and instantly you will be online and able to browse the internet. The procedure should take you a swift 5 minutes. There are a couple of devices available but the one that caught our eye was the Huawei e169 USB dongle with interchangeable SD Memory card. This takes Mobile broadband to a whole new level as the dongle can be carried around in your pocket. No more carting around boxes filled with cables and hand size PC cards. Simply plus the device into any free USB port on your desktop or laptop (or micro PC) and you have a Broadband Internet Service. For all those road warriors, there’s no excuse anymore for not keeping in touch There are a few improvements that could be made, for instance if you travel out of a 3G area speeds are not so fast. However as 3G coverage is 96% of the Australian population you would have to be very far out in the wilderness for this to occur. You might experience no signal in particularly mountainous or hilly locations.
