How do I get WIFI ?

[andy malton]

I have no landline,and seem to live in a bit of wifi blackhole I can latch onto one,but it's very weak signal!!.
And now have a Kindle/Nexus 7/and an I phone 4s that will only work if I'm away from here on wifi!!.What device do I need to buy to get my own hotspot?. Cheers

Your iPhone ...

... can generate it's own hotspot; turn Bluetooth on -Settings/Bluetooth/On then pair your phone with your device (methods vary), go back to Settings and turn on your Personal Hotspot, select your device which will say Not Connected, tap on it and it should connect, jobs a carrot ! Having said that, you will need a good phone signal to get anywhere

It's an expensive way much better to get a dongle with a contract 3 are doing 60 gig for€30 beware going above this as they charge by the kb. This is for Irl JJH

MiFi

I have one of these brilliant and much better than my MiFi also has a socket for an external antenna so can be used with a yagi if signal poor in your area. It is unlocked so can be used with any sim card. Can be powered by any USB mains charger (such as a travel iphone charger with USB socket).

If you can get three then a 12 month / 12GB card is good value and not bad price on ebay. I have been using 3payg for a couple of years now.
