    Hi
    I'm looking for an internet plan at the moment but one that will not tie me into a 2 year contract. I currently hold a broadband plan with Three and use their Huawei E5330 dongle. Does any one know if I can connect a three dongle to a router? Three won't give me a router without signing a contract and the Wifi is patchy for Galway City.
    I need to be able to harder wire my laptop into a router for work from home purposes.

    Hope this makes sense... any suggestions for internet plans in Galway City are welcome too!

    Thanks a mill :)

    You could buy a Huawei B593 or B315 router and put your 3 sim directly into it.

    They are great and have 4 LAN ports on the back of them. I've recently set up one of each and they work great, far better speeds and pings than the dongle & router option!

    Hope this helps!
