The modem from m|o is a modem cum router.Originally posted by ngkk:so is it a modem/router? or just purely a modem?
Theres 3 other ethernet holes for you, so if your modem and computers are closed together and the wire is long enough, you can connect them to the modem too.
If its far, I recommend you to get a USB wireless adaptor. You can then use multiple computers to go net liao. -
so what brand of usb wireless adaptor wud be compatible?

This one I not sure, but I believe a normal wireless adaptor can liao la...Originally posted by ngkk:so what brand of usb wireless adaptor wud be compatible? -

is it the intergrated wireless modem(2WIRE 2700HG)? if thats so, you can straightaway plug your cable into the mio modem, no need to use router. cause this 2WIRE 2700HG got 4 ethernet holes for you to plug. -
must get the 2WIRE 2700HGV . for 2700HG ... it's the eariler version. HGV has 4 Lan Port . wireless and plus a RJ11 port.

Hi
I have signed up for Singtel Mio plan for $68 per month. The service activation was one day earlier than the installation day as confirmed by the wonderful WyWy shop personnel in Novena Square.
On the actual day, the service technician came down one hour earlier as agreed. Installation took barely 5 minutes, and I actually asked him to conduct a series of phone checks first. E.g, I tried calling using Mio voice to my mobile, using my mobile to call back, etc. All works wonder. But seems to be a bit of echo.
The technician also helped me set the firewall settings for the Mio box (2wireHGV) and even surf the net to speedtest.net to check up the speed. It is indeed close to 3Mbps (2950kbps to be exact).
So far, I received no internet disconnections and my Mio voice been working perfectly fine. Only thing is that I still dunno how to configure my E65 after signing up for Mio mobile.
Previously I was using
1.5Mbps ==> $43 per month
classic plan ==> close to $80 per month due to no free incoming calls
House phone ==> can reach up to >$80 in 3 months time cuz my mother often use the house phone to chat with her mahjong khakis
By signing up the Mio plan, I save a total of ($203-$6
= $135 (theoretically, excluding Mio mobile settings at $15/month plus the other VAS settings for Mio voice)
So far so good. Pretty impressed (and proud) of signing up this.

HiOriginally posted by tankee1981:Hi, any updates on the Mio plan so far? Been a month since you posted your previous comments. Problems? Thanks
My MIO plan has been excellent so far. I think one reason is because previously I was using Singnet broadband 1500kbps and there has been no DC issues (except during the earthquake). I staying in Woodlands. Hence, I am very confident of signing up this Mio plan.
There was once when I was downloading movie clips from a webby at 300kB per second, my bro was using wireless LAN to msn and check his e-mail... while my mother was chatting with her mahjong khakis for >2hours all at the same time. No issues at all! Somemore I do get to save a lot! Really very pleased, but I am now considering whether to up my broadband speed to 10Mbps for an additional $15 per month.
But one thing I have to note is the sound quality of Mio voice. A DECT phone is highly recommended. The other analogue, especially those cheap cordless phones, will not be so clear. I do hear a bit of echoing and sometimes my friends at the other line will comment hearing noise. But its still work-able by any means.
Anyway, I am using the DECT phone that I gotten as a freebie during the PC show.
No echo + crystal clear! -
I won't be getting until late 2009...

Ya exactly, I signed up partly to let my mother enjoy chit chatting with her friends as well cuz she is long-winded.Originally posted by ndmmxiaomayi:If you find no use for other services, better don't.
