Data on mobile routers

[Vennwood]

Hi All,

I was supplied by EE with a small mobile router that worked brilliantly until it ran out of data.   Fair enough but I had an awful job trying to buy more data (I was in France at the time)  On returning home I asked on here and got information on how to top up data.  Excellent.  Being a little cautious I put the minimum of £5 just to see if it worked.  Bingo all well.  We went to St Neots and used the router for two days using two tablets mainly for catching up on the news (no downloading files etc.)  I was surprised to discover it ran out of data again.  So my question is - how much data do I get for£5 or £20?

In the past I have used a Huawei with a 3 network 24GB data sim valid for 2 years.  Would I be better off buying another Huawei router and 3 sim or sticking with this EE router and buying more data?

Visit http://add-on.ee.co.uk/purchase from a device connected to your mobile router by WiFi to see what data add-ons are available.

The problem is that once you run out of data you can't access the internet and there wasn't any warning that I was about to run out.  Is there a EE page that tells you how much data you get for a given amount.?

[XRaySpeX]

No, you can't access the Net but you can access that page as it's within the EE network & is unmetered.

I don't know if it was the area or not but I couldn't access the web page.  Is there a setting somewhere that seeds to be on?

Try another browser that doesn't convert HTTP: into HTTPS:

I'll try that

Well I tried another browser with a 50% success - Ipad ok, Samsung not ok.  It still doesn't answer the question though and that is how much data do you get for £5 or £20
