Broadband Modems in Mobile Phones

Given the popularity of mobile broadband, many people are now asking if they can access mobile broadband via a mobile phone.  If your handset supports mobile broadband, then you can probably use it with your Laptop to access the internet.  First, you’ll need to find out if there’s a broadband modem in your mobile phone.

Your best bet is to visit the website of your handset manufacturer and look it up in the specification pages – you’re looking for technical terms such as HSDPA, HSUPA, HSPA, or top download speeds of 1.8Mbps, 3.6Mbps or 7.2Mbps – these will indicate that your phone has the kit required to get you online.  You’ll probably find that performance won’t be a good as a dedicated USB Modem, but it’s a good start.

Getting connected

The actual process of getting online will vary from phone to phone, but generally you:

  • Install the manufacturer’s connection software on your machine
