  1. I much prefer a manual stop, more reliable, especially travelling downstream with an energise to run stop solenoid.
  2. As an existing customer I've been offered 15gb for £15.99 on a rolling 1 month contract. Be interesting what price if I sign up for 12 months or more.
  3. That would be ventilation not cavitation. Double post edit.
  4. I can't really say as we have only ever used 3 plus we haven't moved for two years during which time the goal posts might have moved.
  5. I don't think there is much to choose generally between the reception and re-transmission of phones and a routers, but what does matter is whether it is a phone sim or a data only sim, I would bet that when traffic gets heavy the network provider will make sure the data only sim will out perform the phone sim (unless they can be fooled into thinking the phone sim is a data only one - i.e. it appears to be installed in a router- but then that's not cricket is it?)
  6. Why 3 charge the same for 10gb as they do for 15gb is beyond me, who the hell is going to go for that? Why don't they split the difference and do10gb for £12.50 same as Tmobile? Crazy.
  7. Not sure where you have been looking but 3 do a data contract of 15gb for £15.99 per month, cheaper than your Irish deal. 3 also do 10gb for £15.99 per month which seems a bit 'Irish' to me! Even 3 staff can't explain that one.
  8. Yes, not sure if it's a standard sim but ordinary sims can be cut down with s straight pair of nail scissors if neccessary.
  9. ZTE MF60 router has external aerial socket, latest is MF80 capablevof 47mbps! £125 from Amazon.
  10. Two of us do similar and manage with 5gb per month, I think you need more. Can't say how much shaping they do but I would guess data only sim is better in busy times.
  11. Just to recap, dont go rushing off with the idea that there is a deal that gives everything, network providers give the impression that they can supply such a thing but you need to read carefully and more importantly read between the lines. I know I keep saying it but there is no such thing as a free lunch. No network provider has enough bandwidth to cope with unlimited data all of the time, you can choose either unlimited data on a phone sim which, some of the time, is restricted or you can have a limited amount of data on a data only sim (not to be used in a phone) which is for a limited time but has the advantage of taking priority over a phone sim in busy times. That's why unused data doesn't roll over to the next month otherwise they would be snowed under trying to supply promised data over an already crowded network. Network providers have to do a difficult juggling act to keep most customers happy most of the time even if that sometimes involves signing them up in the full knowledge they won't be getting what they think they will. Things can easily be papered over when verbally agreeing, especially when some young staff members aren't sure of the setup themselves.
  12. Shame they didn't pick on the wrong victim, six weeks recovering from a broken jaw would tend to make them think again.
  13. As far as I can gather 3 only allow unlimited 'all you can eat' data on a phone sim, data only sims are only to be used in a modem, they have a limit but have the advantage of taking priority over phone sims, that's why they can offer unlimited data, they can throttle it back to give priority to data only sims which are paid for by amount of usage. Similar applies to all networks i.e. no unlimited data on data only sims, after all no network is going to dole out unlimited data usage ad hoc without some conditions. Since 3 network have always been exclusively 3g (hence the name) they rented 2g backup from other networks to give workable phone coverage but abandoned Orange 2g backup a couple of years ago when Orange took over T Mobile falling back instead on their improved 3g coverage, so I would guess that's why 3's phone coverage has deteriorated. Stand to be corrected though.

  15. Can you provide a link?
  16. Word of caution, 'All you can eat data' sim can only be usd in a phone not in a mifi.
  17. Mystery edit

  19. Strimmer wouldn't work with a strimming line, too much resistance, it would have to be a blade but I think the hub would suffer the same problem.
  20. My head hurts.
