Hi everyone

I am new to the Uk and need some help.

For you users of mobile broadband what are the best options out there? The ones that from a tech point of view work better in terms of speed, navigation, uploads, etc.

I am based in London and looking for a decent mobile broadband dongle

Thanks

JJ

    It is totally dependent on what signal you can get at the required location, and the only way to test that is with a free PAYG 3G SIM first. London is a huge area and reception can be anything from 100% to zero, so specific network advice is impossible to give.
    No free lunch, and no free laptop ;)

    Also bear in mind that it can get quite expensive. I don't think there are any unlimited mobile internet options that can be used in dongles/mobile wifi, so you would be paying for the amount of data you use.
