MobileBroadband.co.uk is the UK's only website dedicated to mobile broadband.

Our aim is to ensure you make the right choice when choosing a mobile broadband product and to get that product at the best price.

We are completely independent and offer deals on all the UK major networks, including EE, O2, Three and Vodafone.

Why choose mobile broadband?

Mobile broadband is a product very much worth considering in a number of circumstances:

  • Poor performing fixed broadband

Many areas still have poor fixed-line broadband and could achieve better performance from mobile broadband. If that is you then you should consider mobile broadband as a viable superior alternative. 

  • Travelling a lot

Mobile broadband is great if you move around a lot as you have something ready to connect whereever you go. All you need is mobile coverage and internet is always at your side.

  • Temporary solution required

Most fixed broadband requires a long contract, which isn't ideal for those in temporary accomidation or looking for a short-term solution. Mobile broadband is a viable option as you can choose 1-month contracts, giving you the flexibility you require.

  • Don't want a landline

The majority of fixed broadband deals require you to have a landline and to wait an engineer visit. Mobile broadband devices don't have such ties and are simple plug-and-play devices.

What type of mobile broadband devices are available?

There are 3 main types of mobile broadband devices, which are Mobile Wi-Fi dongles, Routers and USB-dongles.

Mobile Broadband Devices Compared

Product

Powered-by

Strengths

Mobile Wi-Fi dongle

Battery

Portable and delivers device to multiple devices over Wi-Fi

5G/4G Router

Mains-powered

Powers a wider area and can be used anywhere with mains-power.

USB-dongle

Laptop USB-port

Extremely portable and perfect for using on a single MAC or laptop.

As a rule, a 5G or 4G router is the best choice if you are looking for an alternative to fibre-broadband. They deliver the widest household Wi-Fi coverage and can be hooked up to external antennas to improve coverage and speed.

Mobile Wi-Fi is great if you are looking for something portable to take on the move that can connect to multiple devices, but if you are looking for coverage across a wider area they can struggle.

Finally, a USB-dongle are often the most affordable devices that are perfect if you want to use a laptop or Macbook on the move.

What speeds can I expect?

Mobile broadband speeds vary based on coverage and across the different UK mobile networks. However, in a lot of cases they now deliver speeds that can rival fibre broadband.

Should you find you aren’t happy with the performance of your device when it arrives you can send it back within 30-days and get your money-back.
