Mobile internet for home

DazedAndConfuzed

Afternoon All,

I'm due to move into a new house on the 1st and Sky have now comeback and said they can't get the fibre internet installed until the 13th. My partner works from home so requires internet access for e-mails, etc (nothing too data heavy) so I'm looking at the best option for a couple of weeks worth of internet to keep us going.

Any and all advice is gratefully received!

Do either of you have a mobile phone that you could tether.

if its just for emails it shouldn't use too much data

EE are phasing out the Osprey Mi-Fi for the Osprey 2 (the 2 can also charge a phone as well as be used to runt he Mi-FI)

CPW are selling them with a 6GB/90 day top up for £30 but may well run out of stock soon, (i bought one this morning) Go to Carphone warehouses site, click Mobile broadband and it should one of the top links. They may be in store or start to be reduced in other stores too.

If course you may not get 4G data, but should work well enough for basic use.

If they have sold out UKHD (where the Osprey deal also came from ) has a EE £10 for 2 months of 100GB of data for a tenner deal if you have a phone you an dedicate to being a home hotspot for a while.

Get a pay as you go sim card from 3.
top it up with 15 quid and for that you get 3000mins, infinite (almost) texts and all you can eat data.

Stick the sim card in an android phone and turn on wifi teathering (hotspot)
connect your laptop to your new wireless hotspot and browse your socks off

Introduce yourself to your neighbour and cheekily mention it in the conversation. They might let you borrows theirs
