Hi, we are due to go to a CL site in North Norfolk. I will need to access the internet while away. There is no wifi on site and I am assuming we won't be able to access libraries etc. Can anyone recommend a Dongle based internet access that works ok? In would prefer something that I buy then top up as needed, rather than getting into a long monthly contract. Thank you

First of all I suggest you check with the site what the mobile signal for each network is like in the area.

I prefer to use the data on my phone and tether my Pad but many people, like Easy, use Huawei mifi units with 3 Network's Internet on Legs sims. Check them out on Amazon.

I use EE and it works all over Norfolk.  I will be in North Norfolk on Saturday and will use my mobile to tether to my I-pad no problem

I also use my phone to supply an internet connection. It seems pretty consistent as far as a 4G signal is concerned. Has only been defeated in a couple of places, Buxton and Clumber Park spring to mind. It might depend on what phone you have as to whether you wish to go down that route?

We use our mobiles very little TW and almost never unless on holiday. Mine is always in my pocket though. Not smartphones either. OH has a quite expensive smartphone but it was really bought to save carrying a camera round when in towns or cities where the full zoom is not needed and easy for her to carry. When we go out I usually put the router in my jacket pocket and put a Tablet in the car. Useful for a change of plans or to get to a location with Fliss' smart phone using our wifi.
