Sounds like you are one of the lucky ones with your mobile broadband experience – here in the UK speeds and connection can be really slow, they average around 1Mb and for those outside of town centres it can be much, much slower than this. On top of this the 3G network is too congested meaning speeds and connections are dropping. Bring on 4g!!

Hi Julius,

as far as I remember (I don’t have a laptop around), web’n'walk manager lets you choose a provider from the Settings and automatically connects to the chosen one.

Hi Julian,

thx for the great article. One question about that web’n'walk Manager – does it allow you to choose your provider or it automatically connects to T-Mobile?

Just to explain – I am about to buy my first macbook. I allready use 3G via USB modem on my PC notebook when on-the-way, but I intend to switch to something more elegant and buy this card. Was looking for a SW for some time, that’s how I found your blog (great BTW). My recent provider is Orange Slovakia, but they are too impotent to provide their own SW for OSX, while they offer the E870 with their 3G services… lame. So what do you think – will I be able to use the E870 with the web’n'walk Manager here in Slovakia with a provider ather then T-Mobile?

Reading your very complete blog made me realized how technology brings comfort to people who are always on-the-go. The topic speaks for itself. Very hi-tech. Seems so important but not yet that affordable to masses.

@Uli It does sound to good to be true, indeed—but it actually works. I don’t have the Huawei card long enough to talk about it especially, but I did this with another 3G phone before and I don’t have any additional entries on my bill even now.

The experience of the last two months shows: You don’t have to pay extra—the data flatrate is valid for at least two Multi-SIM cards.

Sounds to good to be true, so it really is possible to have the Data Flat for 2 Sim Cards? Or can you only have the flat on one Card and the other is for calls and messaging only? Have you got the first bill yet? If this works its phenomenal. Thanks for sharing!

Hee heh, if you read your post title as-is, you realise that twenty years ago no one would have understood what the dickens you were talking about.

I wouldn’t use a mobile phone to go online, because the call charges are savage here in the UK.
