Vodafone Starter USB Modem

Plug it in and be compatible with our new 3G 850MHz network*

Automatically selects the strongest available Vodafone network to optimise your connection.

A New Network
We're building a new 850MHz network* across selected major metro areas in 2011 and it should result in a better experience & improved coverage if you've got a compatible device and are within a 850MHz coverage area. The inner city provides special challenges for Mobile Broadband. Higher density living and larger structures can block 3G signals from reaching 3G modems. We're hoping to change all that. * The 850MHz network is currently only available in selected metro areas of Sydney, Canberra, Melbourne, Brisbane, Adelaide and Perth¹. Click here to see where the new 3G 850MHz Network is available.

Works on more networks, in more countries, giving you more choice
Gives you access to our new 850 network which is being built to provide better in–building coverage*
