Wireless Dongles

[Faxo]

I move into my new apt on saturday and dont want to connect the phone line so wireless is the only option

Anyone recommend a decent one? Been on top-10-broadband and the 3 one seems the best deal despite being 2nd?

Any comments?

Depends what you want,

Voda for coverage and speed, and 3 for good value package IMO.

I'm using one at the moment until Sky gets set up. With T-mobile, no contract, just top up whenever you want. £2 a day, £7 a week or £15 a month. It's not great, but has done me well the last couple of months! Depends on what you use the internet for really.

Don't touch the 3 one...

Until a month ago I had no experience of this, but I have started working on "one site" offices, so this is our only choice, two of us have Vodafone ones, pay as you go, 15 a month and it really doesnt seem to run out, (but then again I'm not downloading torrents etc)

The other two guys have 3, disconnects all the time, messes around, seems awful, Vodafone one isnt even in the same league IMO.

+1 dont go near 3, as i had the free laptop deal from pc world, and could never get any signal at all, t mobile is also dreadfull, o2 or voda seem the best option.

I've just purchased a o2 E160 mobile broadband dongle and it is working great for me on HSDPA despite the face I am currently in the middle of nowhere in the Scottish Highlands.

£2 per day, £7.50 per week or £15 per month.

I have no problem with 3 at all, HSDPA 95% of the time, running at around 2.2Mb, must depend where you are.

Definitely, if you are in a strong signal area then it works perfectly - very quick and great value IMO if you get the PAYG preloaded pack.
