What’s ø Mobile Broadband?

ø 

Mobile Broadband lets you use the internet almost anywhere. 

And it includes connection to any of The Cloud’s Wi-Fi hotspots in the UK. 
If you use Windows, you can use BT Openzone hotspots too. Wi-Fi is faster,  
and it won’t cost you any more.

Your USB Modem works on PCs and Macs, and it automatically  
finds the fastest connection for you.
