Anyone know anything about 3's home broadband router/box? Saw one in the shop on Sunday but ran out of time to ask about it. Can't find it on their site, looks like a small black elongated pyramid, has a yellow ethernet connector on the back.

It's actually disappointing to see how 4G has not really caught on in the UK as a home broadband alternative. In some European countries 4G is marketed as an alternative to slow data speeds over ADSL with mobile providers offering unlimited 4G bundles for home usage.

Maybe, I found a photo of the device I saw in the shop;
http://www.mobilenewscwp.co.uk/2016/...-in-n-ireland/ Not a bad price, £17 for the 20GB rolling offer, while 40GB costs from £20 per month. |

It was the Three shop in Grimsby, Lincolnshire. (England
)My home broadband is with Virgin Media who are for the third time in a year jacking up the price yet another 10% in November, so I'm looking into alternatives. |

It only had one ethernet port so it's probably the B 310

I don't have TV and don't want the home phone, this is just for the 100Mb/s broadband, not bothered about the speed, would go to BT 58Mb/s if virgin won't do me a good deal in January when my retentions run out, 12 month contract with BT £28. Only reason I'm on 100Mb/s with Virgin is the dire upload on lower packages. Not amazed with Virgin, so could quite easily be tempted to BT, especially with a letter coming through the door every X months talking of price rises. |

Are you tethering? Asked in the shop today and said not allowed. They're not much help in there tbh.
