    Hi

    I am thinking of purchasing a Samsung Tab 10.1 but there is a big price difference between the 3g enabled and wifi enabled. I have a pay-as-you-go dongle from Meteor. Is there any way of getting this working with the Samsung Tab. Is it possible to connect the dongle to a wireless router and set up a network this way? Or is it possible to convert the dongle to some sort of MIFI?

    The alternative is just to buy a mifi, who is best to go with here as provider O2, 3, Meteor?

    Thanks for any help

    you do have 2 options:

    1) buy this http://www.buffalo-technology.com/en/airstation-trade-nfiniti-trade-wireless-n-high-power-router.html

    and stick your usb at the back and you will get wireless internet.

    2) as you mentioned the mifi, no one can advise for which is better as it depends on your location and signal strength.
