    I have mobile tesco broadband .
    I also have 02 mobile broadband,
    2 dongles.

    I find the 02 modem much better than the tesco modem as regards distance connection - signal power etc .... Despite both modem devices using the 02 network. It's strange. I just got a new tesco mobile broadband device replacement this morn , it works , but again not as good as the 02 modem.

    Question. Tesco modem locked to tesco as I tried to swap sims from one to the other and they don't work. Getting rid of. 02 at end of month will still have the modem though.....is there any way of getting the tesco sim to work in the 02 modem ? Changing settings or whatever as it's the same network that both modems use? Thks paddy
