Mobile Broadband, works on a technology called HSDPA which stands for High Speed Down link Packet Access.There were times when Internet was first introduced to the world. It was hard to believe, that a person could surf whole world with the help of Internet, be it sending e-mails, video calling or downloading any data. Internet which is being used in offices and homes is generally facilitated with wires to the PC or Mac, but with the changing times and modernization, this technology has also became advanced. Now anyone can use Internet on the go, with this latest technology called Mobile Broadband.
Broadband is a technology that allows the user to use Internet either through telephone (ADSL broadband), cable or mobile network. With Mobile Broadband, one can use Internet at lightning fast speed , and can download data on the go, by connecting it to the laptop.It works like a mobile phone, it uses a SIM card which is either inserted in a dongle and then connected to the laptop through USB or embedded in the laptop itself.Mobile Broadband is very convenient and handy to use, this can be taken to anywhere, and one can be on line as long as he is having signals or has signal strength.
People sometimes confuses it with Wi-Fi, which is also a medium to use wireless Internet. Wi-Fi has a limitation that it can only be used in a limited area remaining within the provided Wi-Fi network range, So user is bound to use the Internet within the specific area. On the other hand the network range of mobile Broadband is vast. There are many plans offered by Mobile Broadband providers, which can help users to chose plan of their own choice.

Help answer the question about mobile broadband
How well does mobile broadband work for laptops?Should I bother spending a fortune on Dell's Mobile Broadband or just try to pick up Wi-Fi?
Yep.
mobile broadband is broadband internet service using the same basic system that cell phones use. that's why theyre usually coming from cell phone companies. i think tmobile offers the service as well.
your laptop will likely have the hardware built in…otherwise, it will have a pccard that is purchased from the cell company allowing you to us their service.
it's like cell phone service for your laptop…but theres no phone service, only internet. it's cool because its much better (but more expensive) than the internet service that would be one your phone, and you can get it from anyway…you wont need a hotspot because it's fed from satellite.
my advice is to do your research as far as quality of service…but if youre not sure which one you wanna go with, then dont get the hardware built into your laptop. you can buy the hardware (its just a small pc card…not very obtusive) from any provider when you get their service, as opposed to having a particular one permanantly built into your laptop.
is this over the cellular network??? How fast is your speed??
datajack unlimited 3g nationwide coverage no fee,no contracts,,no credit check,no deposit, no avtivation PERFECT. DATAJACK
whats mobile brotband
What sucks is that they don’t have unlimited downloads. The biggest is 15 GB a month.
A lot of the time the service provider does not want you to do just that, so you probably cant or you have to upgrade to another data plan. I had the same issue with a phone internet connection, and wanting to share it with my notebook.
Assuming you're running Vista: Go to START > Network
Click on Network and Sharing Center
On the left side, click on the "Set up a connection or network" option
Select "set up a wireless ad hoc" option.
That will enable PCs to directly connect to the "hotspot" PC
make sure that in the network options "allow others to acces the internet" option is selected and you should be fine!
cool unboxing vid. I had a 3 USB modem but it was real cheap made and broke easily. Also, the 3 coverage here in Ireland is terrible for 3g. I now have o2 and that works brilliant
This is free or you need to pay something?
Hey Kalvin hows switzerland?

LUg.
thanks for the info , I will try it tomorrow outdoor, at my school so that I can see,… I hope I will get good speed but at the moment I tried at home and it seems doing pretty well at the moment .
no i don't think its possible u need a modem or a Wireless router with the modem
The problem with satellite broadband is that it is broadband only in the Internet to home direction, for the home to Internet direction, you still need a physical connection, usually which in your case would be dial-up. I am not sure why you do not wan to use the T-Mobile broadband through your cell, unless it is cost prohibitive, and I do not remember T-Mobile being that expensive. However, you may encounter roaming charges.
Hey,
Great question. They can cost as much as $200. Good news is that there's a really good review that covers all the mobile broadband cards on the market right now. Most of them are listed as free or less than $50. There are a couple where you can make $100 from rebates.
Here's an excerpt from the review:
"There are 3 categories (USB, ExpressCards and PC Broadband Cards). Each gets compared side-by-side. See which card fits your needs based on:
1. Network
2. Speed
3. Operating System Compatibility
4. Extra Features
5. Price
To sweeten the honey even further, you can click on any card to read the full review and technical specifications."
