Good Points: It sets up ok.
Bad Points: Broadband? I don't think so! Far too slow for me...
General comments: I bought the Pay-as-you-go package, just to try it out, after previously experiencing the truly pathetic 'Three' Mobile Broadband.The dongle came at a very cheap £29.99, compared to all the £49.99 that you pay for all the other networks & £15.99 for 3GB data usage isn't unreasonable.The dongle software installed easy enough, but that's where the good points end. Apparently, it should be about 1.8 MB per-second, but even on excellent coverage, its 225kb per-second. It's just too slow for me, Im in London, where there is near perfect coverage & large number of masts nearby.After looking at a consumer choice website & reading many other reviews, it 'appears' that Vodafone has the best average speed.Don't get me wrong, for simple browsing, it's fine, but If you want o2 Mobile Broadband to replace your landline or cable broadband, I do not recommend it.

I was wrong...
Firstly - the signal. Do you live in a field or park? Brilliant - you'll have no problem connecting. Unfortunately, I live in a house like ...

I recently bought a new laptop and thought that Mobile Broadband was the way to go. Imagine being sat on a beach or your favorite cafe and still be a work so off I went in search of a USB modem. Based on price I choose 02 Mobile Broadband, based on the £20 per month for 3GB of monthly download and O2's good name. After a bit of fiddling about it was not long before I was up and running with my free dongle. I am not sure if this varies from city to city but I was told that in Manchester th ...
