    Hello All, Just fishing for peoples experiences with various carriers mobile broadband offerings? We had our DSL cutoff today for no apparent reason! (and yes I have checked we've paid the bill!) I went out and bought an O2 PAYG broadband dongle to cover us (£22.00), and 'wow' i'm impressed! We're getting 200KB/Sec out here in the sticks (Nothing compared to our 1.2MB/Sec though). I'm now thinking of getting a contract one for backup. Anyone got dongles from other providers? Thanks Oli

      I have a PAYG dongle through 3 - when I have good reception, I can get around 2Mbps - I'm very happy with it.

      Java, Basic, who cares - it's all a bunch of tree-hugging hippy cr*p

        I got a Vodaphone 3G dongle a year ago. I've tried it in various places around Dorset and I've only ever got GPRS connections :mad: Nick

          I have a Vodafone one too, I only signed up to get a cheap laptop. My experience is largely similar, but I've only tried it a couple of times. Julian
