Vodacom launched its 3.6 Mbps HSDPA service a few months ago, which until now supported upload speeds of 384 Kbps.<\/p>\n<p>The new higher upload speeds will give a far better Internet experience, and the lower latency associated with the service will bode well with online gamers.<\/p>\n<p>To make use of the new HSUPA offerings Vodacom subscribers must be in possession of an HSUPA capable device. Two such devices are the Novatel MC950D and Huawei E272.<\/p>\n<p>Users of the standard Vodafone Mobile Connect Card, Vodafone USB Modem Huawei E220 and built-in HSDPA 3.6 Laptop modules will not be able to access Vodacom&rsquo;s HSUPA service.<\/p>\n<p>The new HSUPA service comes free with any Vodacom HSDPA 3.6 subscription and will officially be available from 1 June 2008.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/mybroadband.co.za\/vb\/showthread.php?t=120408\"><strong>Vodacom  HSUPA discussion<\/strong><\/a> <\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Vodacom has launched its 1.4 Mbps HSUPA service across its full 3G network<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[14],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-3925","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-cellular"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/mybroadband.co.za\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/3925"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/mybroadband.co.za\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/mybroadband.co.za\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mybroadband.co.za\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mybroadband.co.za\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=3925"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/mybroadband.co.za\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/3925\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/mybroadband.co.za\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=3925"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mybroadband.co.za\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=3925"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mybroadband.co.za\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=3925"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
