3 G/GPRS Rates in Mozambique

Ok, back from Moz. and it was a lovely break !
I really do not know why way back when the boere were semi in charge they did not "take over" this part of the world as well. Lovely part of the world BUT you need to be able to stand your ground against Mozzies. Must be zilloins there and they do bite !
Back to the 3G situation.................. the simcard I bought was data enabled and even allowed you access via the phone, but not via the 3 G modem. You have to ask the local service provider in Maputo to enable the data to be used on the modem. You cannot do this while out in the sticks. So anyone wanting to use your modem, you have to get this activated in Maputo.
What I did was to go to Barra Lodge and use their Wi Fi hotspot. Not cheap but at least you can get connectivity.

you should rather have used a Mcel sim. The coverage is better by far.
Before i left they were starting with 3g and for a couple of months it was free.
It was fun while it lasted.
