How much further?

Cause GSM is TDMA and in most cases does not work over the 35k mark unless the base station has extended cell enabled

Yes, you're quite right. I need to transfer data through GPRS modem from different places, but it is not convinient to carry in the car a YAGI GSM antenna..

I spoke about 30 kilometers, and I know why it doesn't work in extended mode

 
 
 

Move to New Zealand's best fibre broadband service (affiliate link). Free setup code: R587125ERQ6VE. Note that to use Quic Broadband you must be comfortable with configuring your own router.
