    What size sim does this take? Is it full size? Micro, Nano etc?

    The pay as you go sim in it at the moment constantly looses service so I need to find a replacement.

    It takes the bigger sim, not the micro.

    The micro can come in a pop out holder so just dont pop it out.

    Cheers. Got a bunch of sims in town so I have to see who has the best service in my hall.

    Pretty sure my house is lined with lead.

    If that does not work then you should consider moving the GSM to another.
    A boxed extender can be used for this purpose.

    You could also try a different GSM aerial & try it in a different position.

    If you just connect another aerial to your gsm & try site it in different places to see which position has best coverage before you fix it to the wall.

    Get a Data Sim

    Quick question, why would I get a data sim? Does the gsm unit not work by text messages?

    By data sim do you mean data only or just one that is 3g enabled?

    Sometimes the cheaper option is a basic data package with some text add on.

    Ah right that's fine. I thought for a second it was sending the messages via the data and not as a sms.

    I would be aware of companys setting up these sims for there own gain.
