lifeincnx Posted April 26, 2009 Share Posted April 26, 2009 Hello, novice DTAC cell phone user here. I have a basic DTAC prepaid SIM card (Happy), no plan, and would like to be able to have occasional Internet access. Also I don't seem to be able to send cell-phone captured images as well. Is this available from a DTAC SIM card or only from DTAC plans? PS - before you suggest another carrier, I have found that only the DTAC carrier works with my quad Motorola - thanks.

JohnC Posted April 26, 2009 Share Posted April 26, 2009 If your mobile has gprs or edge then yes you can access the internet, you need to install the software that came with the phone or if you have lost it download form motorola website. Without a plan you will pay 1baht per minute. there are cheap plans available for say 3 hours access a month. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sniffdog Posted April 26, 2009 Share Posted April 26, 2009 (edited) Just go to one of their shops and apply for one their prepaid VAS packages. Mine is THB 99 for 20 hours. There are seperate VAS packages for SMS and/or MMS. Edited April 26, 2009 by sniffdog Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

karlski Posted April 26, 2009 Share Posted April 26, 2009 D-Tec has a hardware device that accepts a SIM card and can connect to your USB port. In Phuket, you can get one at Big C, but it's a rip off. Get a CAT CDMA card or somehting like that, the Novatel "Ovation" MC727 is rockin. It's 7,000 baht or so, but you get great speeds. DONT buy a SIM-based solution like the D-Tech, it's almost more money and like 20x less the speed, especially during peak times. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jiu-Jitsu Posted April 26, 2009 Share Posted April 26, 2009 Why would he purchase either solution for occasional use. Better to just use his mobile as a modem. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
