The fast signal is their HSDPA network - 2mb they say, I think. If you  
don't have this, then you still get online at 3G speeds which I found  
quite reasonable. When I first got the modem last October, Brighton  
was outside coverage but London was inside. I really noticed when they  
rolled out to Brighton.

BUT BUT BUT I'm finding that either coverage here is a bit on/off, or  
the Leopard drivers are rubbish. I have hours when I can't connect  
(and my laptop reports that it can't even find the modem) at the  
moment. Any PC people finding the service reliable here? I have a  
feeling it's Leopard, before I upgraded it was pretty reliable.
