anyone got it? got major issues!! had it a while back and after nearly a year it started fucking up, like evrery now and again it started going to the cant display page thing after i click a link or section etc, then gradually got worse to the point it was 6 or more times of clicking back before it loaded the page, then wouldnt work at all, evrytime it i clicked it wouldnt show, i took it to various com shops with laptop thinking something was up, noone could tell me, after being on the phone to voda for early an hour they said my modem was outdated after a big microsoft update and i needed a new one for £80 i said fuck that ive been with you 17momths i want it free!! they say no i say CANCELED!
so i end up getting more a couple of month ago with a new contract after being without for months, its now happening again, im at the point of like 6 attempts and having to go back before i get to the link i wana be!!
ANYONE GOT ANY IDEAS ON THIS AS IM GONNA END UP SMASHING MY LAPTOP, keeps freezing etc too so my text etc ends up muddled up or missing letters or loads of extra ones
help thankfully appreciated:drink:

Tbh buddy i went to get mobile broadband from vodafone and they advised not to bother as its really poor. They told me then to go to Orange which i did and have had no problems with it at all.

cheers for that, im thinking o2 as orange isnt much good for signal in my area, dads got work bb from o2 and my lass has just got it, i had voda and it was really quick the first time (when it had just come out) up untill 3 month before my my 18month contract was up, now its fucked up after likt 6 weeks, im just gonna ring up and cancel, not worth it tbh, i should have know not to go back after they refused me a new modem the first time, seems bad business when the renewal was just around the corner, never mind

i had mobile broadband with 3
it was useless, it used to tease me
it would start to open a page then 'time out'
it would drive me up the wall
i thought vodafone were the best for internet because they are 7.2 compared to the rest at 3.6

i work away 99% of the time
mobile internet is a must to keep me out of the pub
i got the 3 dongle about 2 years ago
when i came out of contract i didnt renew it
