RadX Moderator January 11, 2011 Share January 11, 2011 ...you can tether with your iPhone. Will be terminating most of my mobile boradband plans in due course and my phone line which has 12G data plan works well when i need to surf thru the iPhone. Most prolly get multi-sim for my iPad and my other macbook air lah...but yes, 1 plan fits all... Anyone here doing the same? ↡ Advertisement Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wreckwrx 1st Gear January 11, 2011 Share January 11, 2011 I just re-contract the home bb with sink-tel and they just throw in the mobile bb for free even after i tell them I don't need..... But they just give the sim card alone..... good thing I have an old huawei modem..... but frankly I don't really think I will use it..... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Monthly usage less than 6gb only, purely surf and read emails... Speed good enough, much better than my "dedicated" coporate line. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anyone here doing the same? your iphone is 3 or 4? if it is 3GS then you subscribe to multi-sim and put in your ipad, but you need to cut to micro sim first. if yours is iphone 4, singtel will automatically give you a micro sim. but you need to pay...i think... $10 while normal sim is only $5 per month. 12G is sufficient for both usage Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Versatile 1st Gear January 11, 2011 Share January 11, 2011 tethering is not stable. and the connection speed offer isn't that fantastic as well. we are comparing between wired connection to a wireless 3G network connection. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

inlinesix Hypersonic January 11, 2011 Share January 11, 2011 I planned to do that. But Singtel reception @ home sucks big time. Complain also no use. LL continue with BB. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anyone here doing the same? if u r with singtel and thinking of using your iphone data plan for ipad and macbook, apply for the supp sim card at $5 per mth per card instead of multi sim. supp is cheaper because u can't make calls for it, which doesn't matter anyway since you don't need it for ipad and mac.

Stratovarius Turbocharged January 11, 2011 Share January 11, 2011 Depends on your needs. Basic web surfing will be more than enough. However, If you are into downloading or online gaming, 12G data plan will not last very long. I've thought about this too, but seeing my usage, I've decided to keep my home bb.

During peak periods, mobile broadband is damn sucky. And if you need to d/l software upgrades for your OS (the last one I did last Sun was for 127MB), using mobile broadband will be really really really slow.
