Vodafone/O2/3G Mobile BB

kryan1

Question, I am in the country and the only way for me to get BB is through the above companies. My question is i have my brother and sister who have laptops and would like to do the same. Is there a router that i could get that i could plug in the Vodafone/O2/3G device, that would connect and enable all of us to connect to the internet if we need to at the same time. I have the desktop and my brother and sister have both laptops?

Many thanks.

Have you checked the coverage of any of the providers in your area? Before buying a router I would try to see what the coverage is like and bear in mind that mobile bb is often not much better (depending on coverge) than a good dial up connection. I would be very iffy aboiut it being a good solution for you all connecting at the same time. Forget about 3 - the others offer a trial so you could see that signal strengh you are getting.

No have checked all other options and this is the only one that suits. But instead of buying 2 r 3 devices, i was wondering was there a way to share the connection between us all? Like get a wireless router connect the vodafone device to it and then all of use will have the internet? Can this be done?

yes, you can use this from Linksys

but you will also need to get a data card to put the SIM into, the vodafone mobile connect Huawei e620 or e630 like this one - will work with O2 sim also despite what it says
