    Hey

    Three.ie are offering a 750 GB broadband deal , but people are warning about checking coverage in your area etc.

    I have a 3 wireless modem that has always been crap ( was o2 student one) but at same time the 4g on my phone seems mostly ok

    any one on 3 in the area and how are they finding coverage / speed - would be great not to be limited to my current 15 GB per month - some one at home gets ate over streaming too much

    cheers

    3 also have €20 a month ready to go internet unlimited. You could get a sim and try it and them keep it as its a better deal

    I have 3 mobile broadband via their little huawei 5573 device. I get 4g most of the time, - it reverts back to 3g occasionally but overall I'm very happy with it. I'm about 10km east of Kilkenny. I have 30g for 29.99 a month and I have another few months to go on my contract so it would be great if they still have that offer when my contract is up!

    I'd say go for the 20 euro top up too. Buy a Pay As You Go SIM in the 3 shop and put it into the router. You get unlimited data for 20 quid, and no contract.

    Go to comreg's mast siteviewer - see where the nearest Three mast is to your address, check that its an LTE mast (4G). If you are within 2km you should get very strong signal
