John Posted August 13, 2010 Report Share Posted August 13, 2010 I use a pre paid Next G USB plug in with my laptop. This works anywhere there is next G mobile phone coverage. I'm with Telstra, our largest carrier, and they have service in more places than any of the other carriers. I can top up the credit on it anywhere you can buy prepaid mobile phone vouchers or using a credit card on line. Vouchers can be bought in a range of values. These USB plug ins are also available on a range of monthly plans. They can be purchased from most mobile phone shops. The plug in cost me $145 Australian. I don't know about New Zealand.

John Posted August 13, 2010 Report Share Posted August 13, 2010 I live in country Victoria about 150km from Melbourne. I have used my dongle in Brisbane. They work anywhere there is next G coverage which is in most towns. My exchange rate is not too good but I think $145 Australian is about 84 pounds sterling.
