    Hello all,

    I'm looking for a PAYG mobile broadband provider and wondering what everyone is using and how they find it?

    It'll be mainly me using it and maybe my room mate,Could you tell me what you're using and how the connection is..

    Thanks for the help :)

    Edit: For the record I'm in the college road area.

    I'm using '3', €20 a month. It's decent enough, 'midband' is what you'd call it. From the experience of my computer and the signal's strength. You won't be downloading hundreds of songs off it or constanly watching videos on YouTube. I've fixed up my laptop for it to work better than it did last year and pages load quick in my area of Cork even though there's an awful signal, back home in Tipperary it's very fast.

    This is all horribly unstructured.

    Basically, if you've a good computer, decent location, and don't mind having broadband-type speeds you're grand for it IMO.

    The price of €20 is excellent because another person uses this laptop and we both get huge use out of it so it's only 5 a week however I don't know if 3 still do this offer, it's several years since I got it. They may have changed it.

    Meteor's supposed to be alright, gets the job done but that's from one person, back home. I've no idea about the others.
