    Default Ethernet connection

    My landline ISP is not really good so I am thinking of a way to keep my dreambox connected to the internet all the time, I have a mobile with internet connection so can I get a cable that has ethernet connection from one side and on the other side an interface to slot into my mobile. Is it possible? Will dreambox understand mobile connection and use it?

    What are these cables called if they exist?

    Thanks

    I already use homeplugs, issue is with broadband and not the LAN in the house so I want to ensure dreambox is always connected to the internet even if the bradoband to the house is disconnected.

    the problom with your talk talk is the n/m settings
    you can get a good modem from ebay netgear dg834gt then flash it with dgteam f/w theres 3 virsions, you want the one with 0 onthe end , then change the n/m up to 150% and bingo, I got the netgear a new one from ebay for ?10.24p with p&p .

    if you have a old sky netgear dg834gt you can also flash the sky softwhere off it and usr that
