Looking for a GPRS Terminal

    Guys, I want to get Sky+ with multiroom into my house, I currently ahve a regular Sky box. However the problem is i have no land line and do not intend on getting one. Seems a little archaic of SKY as alot of people a getting rid of expensive land lines as everyone has mobiles.....:confused:

    I was wondering if anyone has had success with GPRS mobile terminals with RJ11 (phone) connections. I have tried an old Mobile terminal, and it would dial out but the data speed was too slow so on investigation I was told I would need to ensure that the mobile terminal and SIM card were GPRS compatiable.

    So has anyone tried this method? If so what equipment are you using??:confused:

    No that won't do.

    Even if it was acceptible, no Mobile connection is good enough for VIOP modem over data, which is what you are trying.

    Three solutions:
    1) Phone line. Digiweb Metro VOIP + Broadband over wireless will work as it's not Mobile.
    2) 2x Full price subs
    3) Use the ordinary box for Free Channels and UK EPG. NO sub and MORE UK channels than on Irish SUB EPG.
