Finally an offer from a mobile provider that is a benefit to existing
subscribers. I called Orange to take advantage of the Business Mobile Broadband
Unlimited offer, unlimited 3G broadband for £10 a month. When I spoke with the
sales guy he told me that for existing customers the deal was not £10 a month
but an even better £7.50 a month. The USB dongle arrived the next day and after
a few hiccups trying to install it on my tablet (the drivers will not work for
windows 7), it was up and running very quickly.
I was expecting the fairly usable but slow speeds I got from my previous
mobile broadband solution via 3, however I was very pleasantly surprised to find
the connection speed was much better, even reaching 4Mbps which is faster then
my previous ADSL speeds.
