Our new chum MonkeyBum has posted an update on how he’s getting on with his new 3 Mobile Broadband dongle, and the verdict is ‘life-saving’! Regular readers may remember he had been left high and dry with no internet connection after moving house, so he bought a dongle to keep himself online. “The 3 Mobile broadband has saved my life,” says MonkeyBum, “being able to access the shop, process orders and answer emails is a godsend!”

He talks a little about the download speeds he has been getting, saying they are “similar to my first broadband experience circa 2001” and has noticed that the performance seems to be better in the morning. MonkeyBum’s ISP is reconnecting him soon, but let’s hope that not the last we hear of MonkeyBum’s mobile broadband experiences.
