Your previous thread is here. https://forums.moneysavingexpert.com/discussion/6155880/internet-access#latest As others have already advised, you won't get internet access today. There's plenty of options available but a phone line is needed unless the dongle option is taken.

Thank you for your help - I was talking on a website though and they said I could if I bought a 4g router And SIM card is that not true ?

If all shops were open, you could have gone into one of the mobile network's shops and got a 4g router with wifi access and a PAYG sim that could be used right away. 

Without the shops, you may have to order something, so the delay will be one of postage rather than service.

Amazon do some very good 4g routers that can be used with multiple wifi devices, I have used a TP-Link one with an O2 data sim when I moved house. Depending on your needs, they may be a better option than what you would have got in a network specific shop anyway.

The advice you need is in your other thread.

For a solution today, it is going to have to be a 4G or 5G dongle.  I got an EE one a little while back from Argos and it was fab.  Should be fine for general web browsing and e-mail but gaming or video may eat the data at an expensive rate.  I can't understand why someone is so desperate to need immediate web access for a PS4.
