Mobile Broadband - Coverage query

jmanning
Not applicable
Hi, I have just bought payg mobile broadband. It works fine on GPRS but there's no 3g where I live - this doesn't seem to be a problem.
I am going away next week to this area RH13 0TA and the coverage map says no mobile broadband coverage but full normal coverage.
Will the dongle still work in this postcode as it does in my house by connecting to GPRS?

Thanks, I'm new to this

Hi there Jmanning,

Thanks for your post about coverage in the RH13 0TA area.

I've run a check and coverage for this area, as you say, GPRS will be fine but 3G is no existant I'm afraid.

You're right though, the dongle will connect exactly as it does where you're currently situated so you can rest easy on that score.

A word of not, the coverage for RH13 is a little patchy varying between indoor and outdoor coverage so you may need to have a little tinker with which location you use the dongle in order to get best connection rates ;)

Let me know how you get on, and enjoy your stay!!!

Cheers,
