Mobile Broadband question

Pyro Boy · 2009-03-21 11:34:58

If you have a USB modem that is unlocked (meteor broadband trail thank you :D) can you use that with another operator ? As pay as you go broadband or do you have to buy their modem or can you just get the sim card from them? Thanks

There shouldn't be an issue with using another network's sim, once the modem is unlocked. You will need to ensure the new network's sim is provisioned for full Internet access and then edit the connection settings within the Meteor to go dashboard software using the relevant APN settings of the new network you will be using.
