Broadband alternative

JWa1 · ‎19-02-2026

My broadband has developed a fault that wont be rectified for a week. The guide offered no suggestion to an alternative (seemingly not in my contract to offer one!) and the shop simply suggested hotspotting off my phone but the signal isn’t good enough for tv etc. any suggestions

You could try 1 of Mobile Broadband Routers . However you should ask CS 1st for the loan of 1 or at least to temporarily bump up the data for your mobile SIM.

To phone EE CS: Dial Freephone +44 800 079 8586 - Option 1 for Home Broadband & Home Phone or Option 2 for Mobile Phone & Mobile Broadband
