Im looking for the best wifi in my home for around two months.

 

I use an amazon firestick for IPTV and would like a good wifi signal.

 

Any ideas on what is the best option please.

I was recommended to get the WIFI mini with unlimited data so I will get good streaming for IPTV, apart from that will just have my celular and maybe times I use my laptop... But mainly for my television.

I dont want to be tied to a contract for only that short amount of time,just under two months is the time I would require it for.

I have a mobile phone using pay as you go with EE..does that make things easier?

@gary641  just tether your fire stick to your phone and purchase any extra data you need.  You can do the same with your laptop,   

To contact EE Customer Services dial 150 From your EE mobile or 0800 956 6000 from any other phone.

@gary641   You can share your phone’s cellular connection to other devices this is called tethering.  This other device will connect to your phone and gain access to the cellular network and that other device is now connected to the internal. 

 What phone do you have ?

@gary641  Perfect.   You just go to Settings >Mobile Data>Personal Hotspot.    Toggle on Allow other to join. You’ll see a password just below that you can use or you can change to your own custom one.   You just enter that password on the other device when you try and connect via WiFi.  
 Job done.   

all you’ve done is made your phone a mobile router and that other devices can connect to it and share your phone cellular connection.
