I just provide simple example for your guidance if you plan to buy a mobile phone to be used in Timor Leste, especially for Telkomcel.

The same rule apply to USB Modem or Pocket Wifi, if you plan to buy a modem, ask the specification that support 3G 850 band, so at anytime you can feel the 7,2 Mbps 3G of Telkomcel.
To check your mobile’s specification, visit GSM Arena and Search your mobile brand and model.
