As you all know that ever since May 2008, DST has launched its 3.5G network. Along with this network, there comes mobile broadband call GO! Broadband.
As always with a new product, there are a lot of raves and also a lot of nays. Although I am among its first customers, I have not actually really use it for myself. Since my beloved (hehe....laying a bit thick here) Company gave each staff a modem (broadband connection not included) and also since the router is gone, I decided (well, more like desperate already) to make full use of what I had paid for.
I do find it hard to latch onto the network. Had to give it a couple of tries. Finally after like 3 tries I had latched onto the HSDPA network. In case no one here knows what HSDPA means, HSDPA is short form for "High Speed Downlink Packet Access", in other words 3.5G. DST offers a speed of up to 7.2 mb. Imagine ho, when I first signed up for e-speed, it was only 128kb le, and what about comparing it to dial-up? Its like comparing a snail and a.....a........erm.....aeroplane?
During the roadshows (yeah I was working at the roadshows and hey I was a pretty good sales lady coz my boss said so), the potential customers were really dubious about the speed that we are offering. Some even went as far as saying that we jacked up the speed during the roadshows.
However, I would like to differ. I'm not being biased or anything here. I got proof. hardcore evidence....... a printscreen.
