    Mind Blowing Internet Air Cards For Camming

    So I'm wondering if anyone knows of any international plans for internet air cards (camming purposes)?

    The only decent one I've found is MifiRental, but they do not have an unlimited plan. They offer 100-150MB of data... that does not sound like it would last would with camming. How do you find out how much data you use per cam session?

    Internet sucks in my area, ( I have the best plan that I can get in my area, it is 10Mb in download and they say UP TO 1Mb in upload) but I never reached 1 Mb, it is always around 0,30 Mb 0,40 Mb, So I bought an internet key that has a better upload speed ( around 1,5Mb- 2Mb) It works fine but the problem is that it only has 5MB, it install an icon on my desktop, when I click on it it says how many MB I haved used and how many left, yesterday I logged on sm for 2 hours using the internet key, (it had 5MB) I checked it after 2 hours and already 27% gone !!

    So basically its roughly .5MB per hour of camming? So 150MB would give me roughly 300 hours of camming (non-splitcamming), hmmm. That might work. BUT:

    Do you use the HD encoder? Were you lagging? How was your placement (internet speed helps determine placement)? Which area are you in if you don't mind me asking?

    How much is it per month? It might just be worth it depending on how much you spend.

    Hey GlamourRouge,

    I can answer your question even though my english is not so good....

    Right now i'm in India because of my bf's job, and in India every Internet service provider sets a monthly limit of how much data you can use i.e 35 GB a month... I cam 10 hours everyday and 1.9 GB of upload data is gone for that amount of time i broadcast and only 5mb of download data is gone( I use it solely for camming).... But please keep in mind that i always use the encoder and i set the fps/bitrate at the highest so my placement will improve....

    I would not recommend that device...100-150mb is clearly not enough for HD streaming.....

    Hope this helps...

    It might not be the same for all girls but as i mentioned, i set the bit rate,etc at the highest possible so that might be the reason.....

    They are usually $50-$200. I'm looking to spend less than $300/month, but $400 or $500 would still be worth it.

    And that's just on an air card? I was not aware they came in that size, as all the international ones I contacted said the highest is 150MB/month. What brand or company do you get the service from?

    Okay. I'm pretty sure its different for every person though, depending on where they live, their provider, the plan, etc. The other girl who posted above you also cams on SM with the encoder and only uses .5MB/hour. So it def depends. Do you know where to find the information at since you know yours?

    You can check this internet usage monitor software http://codebox.org.uk/pages/bitmeter2 it's free.....


    I don't use anyone of those though, i can check how many data i've used by logging into my account provided by my ISP....

    I have no idea specifically how much I spend per month because I have flat rate internet, but I'm positive 100-150 MB wouldn't last you even a few days. Even 5GB is very little data, especially if you'll be using internet for surfing along with streaming. Before I cammed, I had one of those internet sticks with 5GB data - I'd spend more than was included in my plan every single month JUST by surfing the net. Web sites these days are very data heavy because most has flash on the page and/or video ads. In my opinion, 100-150 MB would barely last you a day or two of video streaming, IF.

    Here's a basic calculator I found, maybe it helps you set your expectations. http://www.att.com/standalone/data-c...tor/index.html

    Here's the guide for the BitMeter software in case you're lost...




    And it will give you an alert when you reach the limit....

    No more like .5 GB per hour. I cam around 4-8 hrs a day and usually go through 3-6 or so GB a day.

    150 mb would not last long. That might be good for emails, browsing and light video viewing, but not much else.

    OHH sorry I said that my limit was 5MB, actually it is 5GB.
    So yesterday I renewed my plan by paying in advance (because everytime that I exceed the 5GB, they still let me use it but at 64 kbps which is very slow) Just after paying I had 100% data available, after 2 hours of broadcasting on sm using the encoder( my feed was perfect upload speed was 1,70 Mb or a lil bit higher) I checked it and it said 27% was gone !!
    It is not cheap for the amount of data that they give me, I pay 29€ = 38$, But I don't have choice.
    I am in Italy

    According to my encoder, I stream at 1020 Kbps which equals 127.5 KBps. That means I stream at roughly 446 MB per hour, at 6 hours I roughly use about 2 GB a day.
    Never realized I streamed so much.

    I don't know if this helps you, or anyone for that matter, but I found that a lot of business class internet in certain areas of Europe have phenomenal upload speeds at a pretty decent price (i.e.- around 200 euros/mo). It might be worth it to just get a temporary internet plan if your situation allows it.

    I looked into every possible way of doing this in the UK to get my dream house - in my dream location , in the end I had to sacrifice that dream , because like you say , unlike a normal internet package , they're all capped - and the price you have to pay to buy extra , just makes it extortionate to cam on :-( Over here , it's pretty much impossible.

    I think you mentioned traveling and camming GR? If you are and staying in Major cities you can get CLEAR. I use them with no problems. I get about 1.5mpbs of a upload speed with it and about 5 with Download. Most major metro areas in the states have Clear. I pay like 50 a month (would be less but I rent my USB device...) and its unlimited everything.

    I have been using it since August with no problems.

    I'm wondering is it cheaper to use an internet air card or calling up your internet/phone provider for service overseas????
    ( I apologize in advance if this is a stupid question I'm not familiar with how this all works)

    usually it costs a lot using your internet provider abroad, it is called ROAMING
