Reviews

  • Virgin Mobile Broadband WiFi modem

    This WiFi modem/router works well and provides great value on some plans, but we're still left wanting better performance out of Virgin Mobile's actual broadband.

  • Edimax nLite 3G-6200n 3G Broadband Router

    Edimax's nLite 3G-capable router might sucker you in with a bargain price point, but you'll pay a hefty frustration price along the way.

  • Optus E1762 USB Modem

    The hardware performs its part of the equation just fine, but if you're considering Optus' wireless broadband make sure you take advantage of its seven-day trial period.

  • Linksys WRT160N Wireless-N broadband router

    The Linksys WRT160N Wireless-N broadband router has consistent performance, good range, a helpful software application, and a good set of networking features. Its lack of gigabit and USB support are the only major knocks against it.

  • Vodafone Internet Stick

    For those blessed with excellent 3G reception in their homes the Vodafone Internet Stick will serve you well. Be sure to check Vodafone's coverage map before coughing up the cash.

  • Conceptronic Wireless 300Mbps Broadband starter pack

    Should we be surprised that yet another Wireless N router has failed to live up to the hype?

  • 3 Mobile Broadband USB modem (v.2)

    While this newer USB modem from 3 carries itself with a sharp new look, it delivers nearly identical performance to its predecessor.

  • Adobe Media Player 1.0

    Adobe's Media Player is an excellent application that is beautifully designed and easy to use. Shame about the currently available content.

  • Telstra Next G Prepaid Broadband

    Telstra's prepaid wireless broadband offering is good for casual browsers or those who'd rather avoid dodgy Net cafes, but beware — there's a pricing sting to be considered.

  • MyNetFone Netgear TA612V

    The TA612V is a solid unit that provides a low-cost way to make VoIP calls. It is a good choice for a household or small home office where users are keen to cut their telephone bills.

  • D-Link DIR-655 Xtreme N Wireless Router

    Even with gigabit Ethernet, its design niggles and the failure to significantly better Wireless-G performance make the DIR-655 poor value.

  • 3 NetConnect Mobile Broadband Card (HSDPA)

    3's NetConnect mobile broadband card combines HSDPA speeds, compatibility with ExpessCard and PC Card laptop slots and exceptional pricing plans into a magic mobility mix.

  • BigPond Next G Wireless Broadband USB Mobile Card

    Telstra's Next G USB modem pushes the wireless broadband needle past 2Mbps, making it a better choice than its sibling PC Card in most (but not all) situations.

  • ASUS AiGuru S1

    A simple to use wireless VoIP handset for Skype users that doubles as a music player.

  • BigPond Next G Wireless Broadband Mobile Card

    Fancy a 1.3Mbps broadband pipeline direct to your notebook, without a cable in sight? The new BigPond wireless data card makes good on Telstra's lofty promises for its Next G network.

  • Vodafone Mobile Connect 3G HSDPA Card

    Vodafone's enhanced notebook PC Card delivers what the mobile telco calls 'business class 3G broadband' — but until more of the 3G network is upgraded with HSDPA, most users will remain stuck in economy seats.

  • iBurst Wireless Card

    iBurst is a superb wireless broadband solution that's highly useful for the mobile business user, but regular consumers will likely find its price to be a deal breaker.

  • Linksys WRT54G3G

    The Linksys WRT54G3G does an admirable job of simply and seamlessly sharing a Vodafone 3G data connection.

  • Netcomm NB9W ADSL2+ Wireless Broadband Modem router with VoIP Gateway

    The NB9W is a solid performer, combining a modem, router and VoIP gateway in one, making it an ideal solution for the home or office.

  • Unwired Wireless Card

    While the speed and pricing plans make it appealing for those who aren't deskbound, Unwired's Wireless Card is cruelled by the lack of true mobility and the Sydney-only coverage, which itself is undeniably patchy.
