The pack comes with a Mobile Connect  mini USB ADSL modem and a vodafone data SIM card pre-loaded with the  "bono" of data transfer of your choice. Once used up, the customer has the option to recharge (top-up) the SIM card with another "bono" of 100 sessions (25MB) or more of prepaid data transfer.

Characteristics of this pre-pay pack:-
- Includes up to 1GB of initial rechargeable data transfer.
- No monthly bills, pay as you go.
- Plug and Play setup. Ready to go on all laptops with at least one USB port (see other system requirements at page top).
 
THE SYSTEM INCLUDES:
 
1) 3G/GPRS Quad-band HSDPA/3g/EDGE/GPRS modem...
- Manufacturer: HUAWEI.
- Vodafone 3G Max. data speed 3.6 Mbps.
- mini USB ADSL modem.
- Internal antenna.

 
2) A data/voice (UMTS 3G/GRPS) SIM card...
A data/voice SIM card pre-loaded with the amount of prepaid data you choose to use on sessions of internet or intranet data transfer. Each session is good for 256 Kbytes or 10 min., whichever comes first.

Session

max. KB

max. time

 

256 KB

10 min

Each session is a combination of data volume transferred and time connected.
When the user (you) closes the session, the system calculates the amt. of data transferred and  the duration (in minutes) of the session.

EXAMPLES

1.- A user who is connected for 25 minutes and downloads 5MB during that time will have consumed 20 sessions (20 sessions @ 256 Kb/session = 5 MB). In this case, the total charged to the pre-paid credits will be 5 MB.

2.- A user who is connected for 30 minutes downloads only 100Kb during that time will have consumed 3 sessions (3 sessions @ 10 minutes/session = 30 minutes). In this case, the total charged to the pre-paid credits will be 30 minutes.

Each pre-paid pack of credits (called a "bono") expires 3 months after activation. NOTE: DATA BONOS (PACKETS) HAVE A 3 MONTH LIFESPAN AND ARE ACTIVATED UPON PURCHASE AND NOT UPON FIRST USE. When the initial pre-paid credits are gone, the user has 2 options...

-EITHER-

1) Purchase another data credit pack (called a "bono"). Currently, we have the following "bonos" available...

a) BONO BASICO - up to 25MB (100 sessions) for 40€.
b) BONO AVANZADO - up to 200MB (800 sessions) for 60€.
c) BONO PREMIUM - up to 1GB (4096 sessions) for 80€.

... and the new credits will be loaded into the SIM card. This can be done by:

  a)       Calling free on 132 from your vodafone mobile phone (a mobile phone with your vodafone SIM card in it).
  b) Online at the vodafone spain website.
  c) At Automatic Teller Machines.
  d) Buying a "cupon de recarga" (recharge voucher) at any reseller of vodafone credit (dept. stores, gas stations, mobile phone shops, supermarkets and thousands of other locations all around Spain).
  e) Charging the top-up to your vodafone account (if you are already a vodafone contract client).
    Whichever method you choose, you have to call toll-free on 123 from your vodafone mobile phone (a mobile phone with your vodafone SIM card in it) or on  607 100 123 from another phone (cost of 607... call depends on your network provider). You have to ask vodafone customer service to turn your top-up into one of the data "bonos" mentioned above (a, b, c).

Outside of the "bonos" (data credit packs), the unit has a data usage cost of 2 Euros per MB. This is what it would cost if you used the data transfer without buying a "bono" first.

IMPORTANT: If a new 40€ data credit pack ("bono") is not purchased after the current one expires or is used up, internet/intranet usage will have the normal rate above.

So, as you can see, the purchasing of one of the 3 data credit packs ("bonos") reduces significantly the cost of data transfer when compared to the normal prices above.

We also sell data bonos at a markup in case you want us to add more for you in the future, you can see the data bonos HERE.

 

3) User Manual and Instructions...
A quick start guide is included with the kit. This quick start guide is in Spanish but WE PROVIDE AN ENGLISH VERSION as well. No software is required for PC and we provide the .dmg installer file for MAC via which you can choose your language of installation.
