why?
1. you don't have a 3g phone and don't want to deal with the hassle of configuring the phone as a modem.
2. the smart modem gets its power thru the usb cable. if you use a phone, its battery would easily be drained.
3. I believe the modem is HSDPA capable. 3G < HSDPA. HSDPA Capable phones costs a lot more than just regular 3G phones

I still would not buy it though. I already got a 3G phone.

dili. kanang naa sa picture is an HSDPA modem. usb ra na ma connect. kung gusto nimo i share imo internet gamit nalang sa builtin windows internet connection sharing. naka maot lang ani kay naka on gyud ang pc pirme kung asa gi taod ang modem.
pwede pud imo himoon nga gateway kung asa naka konek imong modem then i agi ug switch. pero i think imo gusto is imo i share ang connection sa more than one laptop? if mao na imo gusto, ad hoc connection is the way to go.

USB ang interface sa Mobile SmartBro while Both USB and Ethernet port ang available para sa fixed wireless nga SmartBro.

pwede na siay pero imong pc ang mag share sa internet, so kong mag gamit mo internet dunga mo tanan, naa man daghan software para maka share ka sa net ug di ka ganahan sa built in nga ICS sa microsoft.

If I may put my two cents in
1. pwede man nmo ipa config sa smart ig buy nmo sa fon.. juz like d first time na madawat nmo ang smart broke
2. the cellphone has its own power so d kaayo pas pas ang pag drain sa imu laptop
3. murag d pa kaayo wide an gcoverage sa hsdpa so probably 3g ra jpun ang speed na iya masagap..

like i said, only the Unlimited SmartBro Fixed Wireless (Plan 999) has both the RJ-45 and USB cable ports. the SmartBro mobile broadband (Plan 799) is only USB.

Two ways to access your smart bro canopy:

First Method
1.) Go to Control Panel –> Network Connections. Hanapin mo yung connection ng SmartBRO Canopy, normally Local Area Connection.
2.) Once na nahanap mo na, right click the connection and select Properties.
3.) Under sa This connection uses the following items:, double-click yung Internet Protocol TCP/IP.
4.) Set your IP address to 169.254.3.3, and subnet mask to 255.255.0.0.
5.) Click OK, and close all windows.
6.) Open your internet browser, we prefer FireFox, and type in 169.254.1.1 sa address bar, this will take you to the Canopy MS.

Note: If this doesn’t work, probably your Canopy MS is blocked, or has been set to use a nonstandard IP address. This is where method two comes in.

Second Method
1.) Follow steps 1-3 from the first method.
2.) This time, set your IP address to 10.20.30.40, and subnet mask to 255.0.0.0

The following steps will help you identify your Canopy address, if ever nagbago na ung IP niya (hindi na 169.254.1.1).

3.) Open the ms-dos command prompt. (on your start menu, select run, and type ‘cmd’)
4.) Enter the following command: arp -a. It will display IP addresses connected to your network, look for the IP address beginning with 10 (10.xxx.xx.xx), this is your Canopy address. Note that i-disregard niyo lang ung ibang IP addresses, as wala naman tayong pag-gagamitan, and your Canopy address is not the one with 10.0.0.1.
5.) Close command prompt and open your web browser (use FireFox) and enter your Canopy address sa address bar (10.xxx.xx.xx).

So, that’s basically it. Napasok mo na yung Canopy page mo without any hassle. May nakausap akong technician once, sabi niya para makuha mo yung exact canopy address mo, akyatin mo bubong mo tapos tanggalin mo yung antenna, hanapin mo yung sticker, then convert the numbers into hexadecimals to get the IP.

Now, to maximize your internet capability, go to the Canopy page –> Configuration –> Quality of Service QoS. Make sure na walang values set to 256, if ever meron, set that to 500.

Also, select Enabled dun sa Hi-Priority Channel.

puedi man na bro.. Make ur PC as ur server put an Gateway and IP address..

example..

PC 1 = server IP address 192.168.1.1 Gateway 192.168.1.1 and share your INTERNET SHARING
PC 2 = client IP address 192.168.1.3 Gateway 192.168.1.1 connect it to your PC 1 by using switch
PC 3 and PC 4 same with PC 2 and IP address lang usba and gateway pariha..

hope it will work.. coz kita ra gi lipat sa ISP that dili daw puedi pero puedi diay..

Right now, the canopy page doesn't really seem to work coz the right pane only has the following tabs; Home, Login, and Copyright. No Configuration tab. I think they removed it.
