Hello

I have just changed from 3 to vodafone because where I live I cant get a signel downstairs on 3 and was missing too many calls.
I have now changed to vodafone who supposedly tether but each page last night took at least 2 minutes to load aaargh!
Is there anything I can do as this is so slow and I cant realy live with this.
At least with 3 the tetherimg was good.
Thank you

    Is this a tethering issue or one of a poor data rate? I use a Kindle 3G, which is said to use Vodafone in the UK and the data rate is awful... Mostly only GPRS, overseas (Spain) it is pretty fast on 3G.

    Checking Vodafone's web pages I cannot see a mention of tethering, but they block IP telephony and "data card use", so I guess that means no tethering or Skype and the data allowance is poor for the money.

    You might regret the move...

    You should have asked Three for a home signal box.

    Vodafone are poor for data and price.

    Hi scousedave,

    Thanks for making me aware of this.

    Unfortunately, I'm unable to link you to it directly due to the posting guidelines which company representatives are obliged to follow.

    Thanks,
