    If you're going to those lengths to get mobile broadband at home, why not just get regular broadband with a wireless router?

    Or, get one of those routers that can have a mobile broadand dongle attached?
    WHS, mine also does WiFi!

      What make is it? I have an unlimited Vodfone mobile express - PCMCIA card though not dongle. Know any devices that can this this since at the moment my only option seems to be to plug it into one of my notebooks, whichever one I happen to need access on. Would be much more convenient if I could share the connection - but I don't want to go the ICS route for a number of reasons.

        That would work well in a hotel room

          Bought it from 3 when I bought the USB 3G dongle. Cost ~£50 for the router - Huawei D100

            Won't work for me The Voda data card seems to be an Option GE0301. I haven;t been able to track down any sort of router that will support it. Still one lives in hope.

              If the dongle has a socket for an external antenna, try this:
