    Can you send an email over smtp ? or connect to your office over a vpn

    Speed seems to have improved for me also in the last 2 weeks but still no joy on email and vpns....

    Whats your upload speed like ?

    wow. thats pretty good - considering it costs only 19.99....

    Can you run a test on speedtest.net and post the result so we are all taking "apples" and not apples and oranges...

    To be honest, I didnt think HSDPA supported that fast an uplink ... as its High Speed Downlink Packet Access...I thought the uplink is maxed at either 128 or 384Kbit/s

    Next time on the Tralee-Killarney road ask someone in the car to do some work on the web using 3's HSDPA . . .
    Better still take the car across the short mountain road from Tralee to Milltown and see how good it is there !

    cant really do a speedtest to prove it coz it only lasted a second or 2 and cant really see it happening again :P
