I am actually loving being at work at the moment as at station I get 4g coverage and it is a Lamborghini compared to the speeds at home.

I suspect you also get a fixed line phone and quite generous call limits in your plan, you do not get that with the mobile broadband.
Yeah we have a fixed line phone but its not like we really use it that much.

Have you tried an external antenna to improve the speeds? I think Telstra actually sells a 3G antenna to hook up to the modem, might improve your speeds a bit if you can get more signal.

NextG coverage out here we get about 4mbps.
