Watching Streaming Video on Mobile Broadband Wireless Internet Reviews

Streaming video requires lot of information to be sent to your computer from the network and this process is a bandwidth intensive process. At present moreover all the mobile broadband providers allows you a maximum of 5GB per month.

YouTube allows maximum of 1GB video size, so after viewing 5 videos your account will be blocked for a month. The Star Wars Kid video is about 4.23MB, which means theoretically you can watch the video for more than 1200 times in a month.

The network will become considerably slow whenever you send a request to the server to start a streaming video. This happens because the cell phone networks are not compatible for constant load such as downloading a large video files.

Rather the networks are to handle small burst of data for using anything that needs bandwidth streaming or downloading could affect the entire network.

Though you may be able to watch tow or three viral videos in a month, but if you intend to view something that is more bandwidth intensive such as video conferencing than you need to pray and cross your fingers.

Due to the nature of the cell phone networks and the limitations of the bandwidth one can face with wireless internet connection, moreover all mobile broadband providers hold the right to restrict the amount of data transferred or throughput speed.

What would be even worse is that you would be disconnected and you accounted could be terminated if you use it heavily.

Though there are several conveniences of using mobile internet, it is useful generally only for browsing the web, to check emails and very few downloads. Though most of the cell phone companies provide great data speed, the 3G technology is still in its developmental stage and the true way to connect to mobile broadband service is still a long way to go.

However,  a few improvements and changes are being made constantly and with this greater bandwidth is provided to users. You can watch a few videos online but again this can have its own drawbacks.
