    Bought an O2 USB broadband device yesterday. Am in rented house in Dundalk Town centre. I must say its performing very poorly. Only getting EDGE reception (3 to 4 bars) at the moment, no trace of a 3G signal at all!
    Tested download speed at speedtest.net, was only getting 45-50 kbps.
    Tried to download Real Player a while ago and only got an indicated speed of 5.8 KB per second. Worse than dial-up!!!

    Was getting 3G reception last night (1 bar). Download speed went up to about 600 kbps then. Only for a short while though.

    Think I will be returning it to the shop under the 30 day return option. Surely you should get 3G coverage when right in a town centre???!!!::(
