Mobile broadband? Which network? 2g or 3g?

Saturday, February 6th, 2010

How do I tell which network I am on? 3g or 2g? Also, I’ve noticed my connection is the minimum it needs at the time. So, online games lag. How do I fix this?

O.K first we’re gonna start with the speeding up of your system. First, put a flashdrive in (preferrably sony or Hewlett-Packard) Then at auto-play, press "Speed up your system" Then go through the process:
Now, to the 2G or 3G
3G is for Wifi signals and Cell-phones. ‘
2G is for Mobile Broadband so you choose 2G

Will we see video calling on cell phones in USA anytime soon?

Friday, January 29th, 2010

I’ve seen so many videos about japan and how much more advanced they are than america. They already have video calling but we barely have widespread 3g networks.

What advances are we going to see in usa related to cell phone technology in the near future? Camera phones so good you can use them as a standalone camera? 4g? Innovative designs?

all of those that you mentioned and more, but who knows when.

When phone companies use ‘3g’ are they referring to the network or the speed?

Wednesday, November 18th, 2009

Basically, I’m confused about if there’s just one 3g network or many that service providers use that all provide about the same speed?

A 3g network is just a high speed mobile broadband network for smartphones, cell phones and mobile broadband air cards for notebooks. The 3G network is for mobile web browsing and it’s used to increase your connection speed. In other words, it’s faster so your web pages and downloads load up faster than the normal digital 1X service, which is still available for calls and text messaging.

Each service provider has their own 3G network and some are much faster than others.

Is there any way to get Internet on an iPod Touch 2g everywhere without being connected to a router? ?

Wednesday, November 11th, 2009

I want to have access to the Internet everywhere like a iPhone would on my iPod Touch 2g. Is there some network you could subscribe to that would give you access to the Internet everywhere on it.

None.

The wifi hardware in the Ipod Touch is not capable of receiving signals from far away sources. In order for you to gain access to the internet everywhere, it would either have to be through satellite or a far away tower thingy that they sue for cell phones, both of which would be out of your Ipod Touch’s wifi range.

If that was possible, I wouldn’t have returned my iTouch

When mobile providers upgrade their system from 2G to 3G, is it on the same equipment or do the install new?

Thursday, November 5th, 2009

Cingular now has 3g network on some phones, what do they do with the former 2g network?

Typically they phase out the older equipment and install new. 2G was very slow in accommodating the data packets that people are starting to use more common place today.

2G uses mostly TDMA or CDMA networks, which originally was an improvement from analog to digital signal, but 3G works better with GSM networks, and GPRS requirements.

Some companies like AT&T/Cingular kept both equipment installed 2G & 3G. But when new towers went in, only 3G/GSM towers were going up. All the TDMA towers were left in place, but eventually people carrying TDMA cell phones, noticed their signal strength was not near what someone else carrying a GSM phone would receive. And then as phones broke down or upgrade new contracts went into effect, the only new equipment you could buy was GSM.

Is the 3G network really wide open to fraud to bank accounts by scamers with only 2 clicks?

Monday, November 2nd, 2009

Today on cable TV 3g network was said to be highly insecure and wide open to fraud to bank accounts.

Funny you mention that – my partner just made a post about cell phone security with links to cell phone antivirus products
