Earpiece should have come with the card cos i got one. Well for the aerial depends on what type you want. If you want the indoor one it will only give you about 2dB gain which isnt alot but will increase your signal just a tad. You'll find them at most wireless product providers. Dunno if the code is the same but try quote for the DIPL-A0042. Goes for about R150 odd incl. (cant find my receipt so not 100% sure but its around that price)

If you have bad reception where you are ( i.e. poor 3G signal ) then i suggest forking out a little more and get yourself a yagi at http://www.poyntingdirect.co.za/ProductInfo.aspx?productid=K-LPDA-A0021

Poynting has also got omni's for cellular voice and data, might be a little cheeper so just visit poynting and have a look.

Enjoy

I only get one bar on my desk but get more bars about a metre to the one side. I just want a small boost to increase my througput a tad. Can't really see myself installing a big aerial as I rarely use my 3G card (when I'm on the road or when the ADSL is down).

Unfortunately I was one of the first to get my card and didn't get a headset, I have given up on trying to get it and just want to buy it.

When you say wireless product providers, do you mean MTN and Vodacom?

Thanks

Not MTN/VC. Different kind of wireless. Places like poynting, which is basically the place to find anything antennae/wireless related.

Well if you only want to boost it a tad, then get the indoor antennae, +-15cm long. Can find it here: http://www.poynting.co.za/productdisplay.php?id=77&cat_id=2. Just click request a quote and they'll get a provider in your area to contact you with pricing but it wint be more than R200.

As for the earpiece, unfortunately cant help there but im sure you can get one from an MTN or cellucity store. I mean if you can buy a earpiece for your phone then im sure you can get one for a data card. If not then im stumped.

you should be able to get the standard 2 dB antenna from MTN shop, or Poyntingdirect, or scoopdistribution.co.za, approx R200.
