What are my broadband options?

    This has probably been asked a lot but I'm looking for advice on broadband options.

    I'm based close enough to Cork city (Glanmire area) so get good signals/reception on most things.

    At the moment we use an O2 dongle on our laptop which is fine.

    However my wife and I both have smartphones and I'm a heavy data user so wifi in the house would be good if it helped reduce my mobile costs

    Also my wife has a kindle so downloading through wifi would also be handy for her

    We pay €20 a month for the O2 dongle. Was thinking about the O2 hotshot as 5 devices can connect to it. Have read mixed reviews about it online

    We don't have a landline in the house

    Anyone suggest options that I should consider?

    Just looking again for any updated information on the O2 wifi device?

    Good/bad experiences?

    the speeds on the dongle have been very good so can i assume the wifi device will be similar or does it work on a different basis
