USB Modems - Whats the best?

[cats2rise]

So the unthinkable has happened. I have to get a USB modem. Overpriced (7 gig for $60 with telstra wtf) and unreliable from what I hear. But I have to get one.

Im in Country Vic between Melbourne and Bendigo. Can anyone recommend anything?

You will undoubtedly get the best reception and speed via Telstra, not sure why it would be unreliable?? If you can not get decent coverage with Telstra don't even think about going for another provider, will be worse

If you are willing to put up with slower speeds and dropouts then there are some much cheaper deals out there...
