Will have to get my hands on a new modem that supports 3G in the 900mhz band though.
Huawei E1820 is the one cell c will be selling.

I hope cell C can beat those prices(telkom do 3g), or this whole 3g is a waste of time for cell c
Agreed!! Competition can only be good for us consumers!!!
I also hope that Telkom Mobile comes in at a lower price than Do3G...
The modems we are selling is 900mhz ready....but I have old models still pre 900mhz 3G
Looking forward to testing Cell C 3G. When they ready.
Chipset Platform: MDM8200
Form: Slider USB
Operating Frequency 3G: HSPA+/HSPA/UMTS 2100MHz(optional)
Operating Frequency 2G: GSM/GPRS/EDGE 850/900/1800/1900MHz
mmm now im a little confused. U sure this is the modem Cell C will be using. According to the Huawei website, this modem supports 3G in the 2100mhz band only?

Im proud to say I was the first person to find out about 3G while Cell C was just testing it out and left a clue on speedtest.net last year. I started a post: people said I was mad, lmao, that speedtest was broken.
Today I got myself an HSPA device and guess what? Im picking them up! Access is up and down: getting kicked out now and again even with my Cell C sim.
Well I know I did something worth it in the reporting world
oh btw I think you guys would have read something on the news page about the sunday time thing
Pricing?
Roaming agreement with Vodacom?

Thanks for the message guy3g.
Why not Joburg on the launch list? And I am with Moggles....pricing is what I am very curious about. As you all know Vodacom is currently cheaper than Cell C. We give 600meg and CellC give 500meg for the same price???? We have 3G and Cell C dont...does not make sense to me. Seeing that Cell C behind on the speed and techno side of things, I would have thought they would at least try and come in cheaper to get more market...but nope...they came in at the same pricing. ?
the 3G Base Stations in Joburg area are provided by NSN...they are still woring on it. No idea when they are going to finish it.
X option you have to be working for cell c to know that.
hi guy3g, I'm working for cell c, but I'm not a cell c staff. LOL![]()
