Carphone Warehouse Broadband?

Question

Is The Carphone Warehouse Broadband any good? Is it wireless? I've heard that it works through a usb connection. Is it "plug and play" or do you need software? What is it's kbps speed? Can you use it to run more than one pc?

Answer 1

I have the free broadband package from them (talktalk) and to be absolutely honest with you I cannot fault it.

I run modem to PC via Ethernet although there is a USB option though this is slower in data delivery.

Software is supplied with whatever package you choose.

There is also a wireless option if you wish to upgrade to it.

At the moment my download speed is rated (today) at 7Mbps which is more than adequate for most of my needs.

The modem I am using is their own and this model is only suitable for one PC though, as stated earlier you can upgrade.

Lastly this bundle is tied to an 18 month contract which is about the norm these days it is also saving me approx £20 a month in fees etc and all calls are free to other Talk Talk users and free to their support centre.

I am very pleased with this current set up more so than my previous one which was with BT.

Answer 2

I have the basic package its just not consistent to be honest sometimes it works fine then some days it wont even work mine is slow but like i said mine is the basic package ( the free laptop offer).

I suppose if you upgrade your modem it may be better.

you just connect to the internet and it is a USB connection xx
