Huawei E220 vs E156G

[ponder]

Which of the above two devices is the better one?

I got both in front of me trying to decide which should go onto someone's laptop.

Nevermind I see the E156G can only do 3.6Mb/s while the E220 can do 7.2Mb/s

Are there any specific firmware & software version I'm supposed to be on the lookout for?

This is on MTN.

Are there any specific firmware & software version I'm supposed to be on the lookout for?

For the E220, I recommend firmware 11.117.10.02.00. It supports 7.2Mbps, USSD, Cell ID and RNC, data counters and QoS.

Got a reputable link for me by any chance?
