Re: Any viable 4g tariffs to replace poor adsl?

I use EE 4G £50 a month for 50GB.
With a router and two bars of signal I get up to 20MB down and 5 up.
Better than the 3MB ADSL I was otherwise forced to accept.

Have you got the tall box shapped router shown in your first EE link?

If so, does it have wired connections or is it just Wifi?

At the moment the standard 50GB mobile broadband is on offer and therefore costs less for 50GB data. (£27.50)

Presumably nothing to stop you using you own router rather than the Wi-fi hotspot they olffer.

But data addons are more expensive on that tariff and the largest data add on on that tariff is 10gb

thats a pretty good deal on paper.

The issue is that giffgaff's network is as fast as a snail.

actually you get banned from buying the £20 goodybag on giffgaff if you use past 12GB in short time (week or 2) or over 20GB in past 30 days (not Per goodybag) so you should text PLAN to 43430 to make sure you not over 15GB

customers of giffgaff are still getting banned for using lots of data at night now, as the 3G unlimited goodybag hidden Ban FUP is applicable to the new £20 4G always on "ish" goodybag (this is on top of the 6GB high speed cap 256kbs between 8am-midnight, full speed between midnight and 8am)

data speeds are still an issue on giffgaff, giffgaff cant provide more then under 0kbs-300kbs to under 2mb (depends how lucky you are) between 11am-midnight due to giffgaff is only buying enough capacity to just about 300kbs at times (with upload speeds of 13-20mb on 4G),

but once january 3th passes when there next new recured after that date any one on a 3G goodybag will be on the 6GB capped one (the amount of complaints we get this month and past february 13th will be interesting),

giffgaff are removing the unlimited ish 3G goodybag to make people leave who use lots of data (really think they should of done it right away, they ignored the idea to impose high speed capping at 10GB (500kbs and 12GB 128kbs)
