which internet dongole to use....
 

Just wondering which internet dongles you use...o2?..t-mobile?

I am wanting one which will change IP address each time i switch windows user accounts. Also which tarriffs do you recommend and which have fast connections.


Thanks in advance.

Huawei e160 3g dongle on 3 network. For 10pounds i get 1GB valid for 30days. Its perfect for switching between accounts because it changes ip each time. I do keep a log on the IP changes, this is vital so you don't get linked. 3 have the best network coverage for mobile broadband so i think their your best choice. Hope this helps :-)

how much is a 2gb data plan worth?
like do you think its enough to use the same 2gb for iphone stuff..like email checking..web browsing a bit..youtubing..and some other small items..and also use the tehtering for laptop to check email, possibly do listings or edit listings..and do paypal transactions??

tbh, the fastest broadband dongle on the market is vodafone... get a vodafone broadband dongle...

just invested in a dongle from three. works great, is really fast and changes IP address each time it is connected and disconnected.

Thanks

3G is the best one around it changes ip address every time you re-connect. its best for multi accounts. 1 GB for £10 a month will give you 5-6 hours of internet every day.
best of luck

Seems like I'll give 3 a go.

yeah 3g is good..but if you can get 4g..i suggest that. :P

I just bought a 3 dongle Huawei E1150, hope I can get it unlocked

should have looked into that before buying..just incase you cant..buy one that you can forsure..
o.O

Absolutely livid. I have the unlock code, but can't get the software to recognize modem. Wasting precious days trying to get this fixed :((

i use 3G as well

Yep 3 is the cheapest and give you last 6 digit random changes of ip, you can also attach via webnwalk to any PC

Why do you need unlock code for the 3 dongle? Just need to check this before i buy cos not sure why it needs to be unlocked

I think I got a USB dongle from Hong Kong - don't know what to do with it though ha...

You have free internet access on your mobile phone sim card as part of a contract and never really use it, no problem, pop the sim into your unlocked datacard and use your free bandwidth.:bounce:

i use a 3 whatever dongle with an iphone o2 sim, on to my second sim now 6months in, so thats full unlimited access for £10 a year .

What is the best no contract plans. Is it virgin mobile?

I won't be able to get the contract one because I have bad credit. Thanks for anyones input.

as above , ipone pay as you go sim, you need to top up fist time you use it and for that you get 12 moths free unlimited internet, forgetting this is an american site, i dont think you will have the same deal as here in the u.k

Thanks for the info.

Now I have a virgin mobile pay as you go phone. Can I just buy the dongle and then switch the sim card from my phone to the dongle like it says in another post in this thread?

EDIT: Yeah I have been looking and only see Virgin Mobile service for USA.

Thanks TizWoz

3 are great, the IP chances, cheap and relatively fast.

the easiest thing would be to get a virgin dongle if they do them


or you need to get a dongle unlocked, 3 e1550 works good and have good speed, i can help with unlocking most dongles FREE and providing new drivers.

not all can be unlocked though .

Do you have software to unlock a Huawei E156G...or a guide...tks

There's someone unlocking on Ebay for £1.29

Yep but theres a few problems with that. Firstly I have about 3 dongles I want to unlock, and as I understand it that charge is each for most of them (most dont seem to provide any software), adn I dont want to pay three times...

Plus others.
Would appreciate any help.

I think you can just do it with the Mobile Partner program like I did.

£1.29 x 3 isn't going to break the bank surely

vodafone is a good one, my initial £15 has lasted for months, for occasional log ins

When i ue a dongal, i just use my o2 sim (simplicity) top up 20 pounds a month,
300 call mins, unlimited txt and internet.

there are other option like 7.50pm unlimited internet bolt on, there another sim for a tenner a month with unlimted txt and internet but you keep the tenner .


if you want me to unlock it i need your
IMEI:
SN:

?
 

Why i need unlocked a dongle?.

Just to be clear on this post, in order to have an IP address change on a dongle, the dongle needs to be unblocked. Is this correct once it is unblocked then it can every time you use plug it in it create a new IP add is the correct?
Can some one confirm this with me or PM me
thanks

no

almost any, if not all from the shop will change i.p randomly

Unblocking them allows you to use any sim from any network so if another network is offering a better deal just get the sim, it allows you to use a payasyougo sim from your phone also

A unlock dongle: Will allow you to connect to the internet with your SIM card that's in your phone. If you have a data plan on your phone and if the phone takes a SIM card then you can use that SIM card in the unlocked dongle to access internet.

Ive re-topped up this dongle and the top-up only lasts 30 days!!! I did not use it much, last topped up months ago, but theyve changed the T&Cs, seems like all of them are the same now - 3 is comparible, but not as good value for occasional use! dang

So if I jailbreak my iphone can I use internet tethering and get a new IP on each connection?

yes tethering is good

I dont think you need to jailbreak it first.
