True, keep forgetting that is coming up.

In reply to a post by ian72:

Let's see..

Smarty unlimited data on Three network at £18 per month.
TPLINK 4G router for £73.49.

Over 12 months that is £289.49 or £24.12 per month.

I am not recommending either but that took me about 2 minutes to find. Other routers I am sure would be available for a similar price that may be better - you would probably be best doing some research into 4G routers. Smarty is the only 4G I am aware of that would come in that budget including cost for a router but if you are happy to do some money towards a router for initial outlay then getting under £25 per month with other 4G providers may be possible.

EDIT : Corrected network

Thanks that a great help (wish I could find such detail in under 2 minutes, I bow to your search skills)
The only other thing is will the 4G reception be any good where i live? Now that can be found with trial and error I guess. I hear a lot about the THREE network being poor in London but good elsewhere.
I have heard of smarty thanks.
People I know say EE is the best mobile provider.

Do you have a smart phone? If so test with that, if not ask neighbours who do have one. It really isn't that difficult.

Most providers will provide very cheap pay as you go SIMs that you can put in a smartphone to test signal. However, some providers are more expensive than others for data so others may blow your budget. Looks like cheapest Smarty pay as you go SIM is £6 which would allow you to test the signal. Also, you can check coverage on their site but they aren't always accurate.

Ah coms.com, they really were terrible and over the heads in what they were trying to do
