Telkomsel Flash

Since i use telkomselflash card from my sister that live in solo now i can get 24/7 connection everywhere and anytime, which using 3.5 G wireless connection from telkomsel.

How i can get it ? that's a complicated story because before you can use FLASH, you must registered as HALO members which registered handy member. And a person who live like me will be very hard to get it. I'm to busy to take care the survey door-to-door just to make sure i use the right address. Sure nobody at home when i go to work, and i'm a hardworking person who stay in the office until night... hehehe... doing chat, and browsing. :D

The strategy was i ask my sister to register it for me with her name. lucky it work fine, only then the problem came up when because she's 100km away.

Another issues when i have to provide the tools to have 3.5g connections, then i googling it first to get the best option. Modem/PCMCIA/HP ?. I choose for HP that able 3.5G connection for economic reason and change my old handphone. Since i only have very limited budget to have a new handphone, so i postpone and using the FLASH via my old hp SE K320i. I could connected it but only for chatting it feels like back using DIAL-UP connection again.... hahaha

After several googling i found out that K320i only works for gprs with average speed 20-45kbps. and sometime the connection suddenly cut off by it self.

The story changes when my sister give me her HUAWEI E220 modem, which quite small but can accelarate for 3.5 G for my computer. She doesn't use it again because at her place there was no 3.5G signal. So it's like having a ferrari but using indonesian roads, you cann't put the maximum power.

I could use it fine here (semarang) because i was include in the coverage area. the speed averagely i get was 250kbps enough for personal use, so before you have it please check for your area.

With 125k rupiah/month bills. i was hoping to get some $$$ to paid out my bills. hehehe
