Hi,
I recently changed my mobile plan to the new CAP35 Optus plan, which I though could also replace my Wireless Broadband plan. I have found two issues:
- my IP address when using this service is not the fixed 220.233.x.x address I have been assigned (I get a dynamic 64.255.x.x address)
- the download speeds I achieve are only about a third as fast as my Wireless Broadband plan, even using the same USB modem
What is the technical difference between the WI and CAP35 plans? Is there something I can do to use my assigned IP address and achieve the same download speeds as by WI plan?
Thanks,
Simon

Re: Difference between HSPA plans
the cap plans use the regular Optus network, they are not layer 2 like the HSPA plans so no static IP, no premium backhaul etc

Glad I know that now - I was considering moving my phone to one of the cap plans, but I won't now...The above post is copyright, may be edited at any time, and should not be taken internally. Any breach of these terms may result in legal action or a sore tummy.
