Android tablet and 3G dongle

[mcfish]

Hi

I have an Android tablet that only supports 2 G and I believe that's been phased out in Thailand. Would buying a 3G dongle allow me access to the internet?

For the price of a dongle you can buy a new 7inch tablet with dual SIM and the latest operating system. I am sending this from my ASUS KO12 bought from banana IT for less than 4000 THB.

I thought dongles were 1000bht? I dont need a new tablet though but thanks for the suggestion, at this stage I just need to know if a dongle will connect me to mobile internet

If it supports WiFi, you can utilise a MiFi. But they are relatively expensive in Thailand. You can pick them up for equivalent of 1000 baht in the UK,

Exactly model number and brand of tablet?

It definitely supports WiFi, so no problem utilising it in conjunction with a MiFi. Utilising it with USB modem/dongle will be problematic as certain modules are missing from the Tablet. You would have to check out the XDA forum to get a USB modem working with the Tablet. Possibly outside your comfort zone.

Example of a 1000 baht MiFi unit in the UK:

Thanks for that, its not a huge deal as there is no shortage of WI FI spots around Thailand so I think I will forget about until my next upgrade
