    Im living in Ballyconnel Cavan and can only get wireless broadband. The ISP im using has proved very unreliable. Is it worth trying Vodafone mobile server. Is it any good and whats the coverage and download like.

    all i no aout moblie broadband is there is a fairly low restriction on data usage.
    O2 for example you pay €20 a month plus €20 for the modem(a one off) and u are only allowed use 10gb of data. to put this into perspective, viewing 10 webpages is aprox 1MB, not including videos. 1024Mb in a GB. Videos can range betwenn 100MB to 400MB. all this over a month is quite strict. i presume high charges for going over this limit. Downloading movies is out of the question. u would use ur limit in an hour and still only have half the movie.

    i would say go for it, but for casual use only. bear in mind O2, Vodafone, and 3 all have moblie broadband so shop around

    If you can download 10GB in an hour you're doing well, also if thats only half the movie then maybe you should start looking for smaller file size movies!

    The mobile solution should be seen for what it is, a solution where wired
    broadband isn't available because of restrictions on the line, no line installed or the user needs portability. Its subject to coverage issues, I've seen mine go from 700kbps to less than dial up speed in different areas. 10 gig is plenty for the normal user, its about 2000 mp3's a month or 13 average movies. If that's not enough then the user needs to look at something like satellite.
