I've been out of touch with safcom products but early this week had to setup one for a friend. He bought the B220 3g wifi modem and I completed the setup. We decided to test the 1GB/128kbps service. After the 1GB bundle got exhausted, I tested the 128kbps services and it seems to work quite well. Hopefully we will know the results at the end of the bundle being exhausted. From a tech point of view, I got thinking what was in Safcom's mind doing this and it struck me they just might have have gotten it right. Considering the cost of seacom/teams, that 128kbps service is really a non-shared bandwidth, which is excellent, explained the reason why it held a constant download. I know 3G is limited to 256kbps on uplink, so duplex 128kbps is very possible. In a summary, I think Safcom should remove the GB bundles and sell by capacity. A good example maybe 128 kbps unlimited = 3K, 256k unlimited = 5k etc. I'd rather work with a smaller capacity and an un-shared non-bursty service. The latencies also held well on 128kbps.

 

Have these been your experiences with the unlimited service?

 

Me thots.
