3 usb wifi dongle FREE pay and go :)

[MetalKettle]

I have an o2 payandgo dongle, Just got the iphone sim and tried it. Won't connect. I understand there may be settings to change but how do I do that and what are the new settings. When I go into profiles and try to edit the setting, they appear greyed out so can't be changed.
Everything works as it should with the payandgo sim that came with the dongle so I figure it must be a sim problem.
Cheers in advance

You should be able to "add" a new profile and make it the default for the o2 connection manager to use. The settings are found earlier on in the thread, posted by berley.

Did you activate the sim? You need to stick credit on there for it to become active.

Yes it is topped up with ?10.
I will try the Add New to see how I do. Cheers for reply

the dongle should work outside the uk as it uses mobile phone providers but you will have change some settings and may be a differant sim it will also probally be quite expensive every time you use it to connect to the net.

the expense shouldnt matter as it should be free once you have your ?10 credit...what other sim would i need as I thought if you can access the internet via mobile phone any where you have a signel then this should be viable

You probably could use the o2 sim abroad if you active roaming, but i should imagine the expence to be quite high. It is worth noting that the free internet with an iPhone sim does not apply whilst roaming.

Ok thanks for the replies, but if the dongle can be unlocked then surely it can be used to access the internet via a spanish sim in the same way.... do we have a spanish members here that might be able to help me out

when you take a uk sim abroad it usually connects with a provider that your uk provider will use so that you can make calls in effect you are using 2 networks.

if you get a movistar sim when you are in spain you will only use their network what the cost will be to use it for broadband and if you can you will have to find out but it should be cheaper as you will not be paying roaming charges.
