Interesting, I seem to have the fastest download speed so far, over 5MB/s and that's far away (almost in Ko Long) from our single microwave link to HK Island at the top of Po Wah Yuen (?)
Great for downloading stuff but not such great speed for uploading stuff to this website at just 0.3Mb/s...

Mmmm - my Netvigator HSPA 3G connection is the worst by far. I will test at another time to see if this is an abberation.

I read on another forum that if you burst through a preset limit (about 500Mb per month) on Smartone, they unilaterally reduce your bandwidth. Not sure if it is true - but it is worth watching out for.

I think my bandwidth is so low on Netvigator Mobile because they do not support HSPA on Lamma - I am probably getting 3G speed.

I moved to Lamma recently and my smartone box was really slow. Vodafone sent an engineer immediately who ran some tests and gave me an extra aerial. They later phoned me and said that as they could not increase the signal to the island they were going to cancel my contract.

After trying to arrange a pccw installation and getting the worst customer service I have ever received, I phoned vodafone and said I would rather have better customer service than reception. I have kept the slower smartone connection and excellent customer service, rather than suffer the idiots from pccw.
