Its not only the My3 site that's down - its the whole dongle /
Internet connectivity. Its been bad all day - starting at about lunch
time right through to now (23.30'ish). Funny time to do 'improvements'
- peak day time and entire evening mid-week. And the dongle dash-board
talks about technical *problems* not improvements. CJB (West London).

Well Jon if you want evidence of 3's reliability, all my posting for the
last
2 years have been using 3 dongles or HSDPA phones as 3g modems.
No ADSL here

and as for additional services which Orange have gleefully abandoned,
3 with free Skype, facebook, MSN, etc, etc clearly haven't.

Orange ED50 gave me up to 1500 mins off peak on net calls a month,
3pay gives me 5000 free for 3 months, and Skype effectively gives me line 2

What i do have to thank FT Orange for is having made such a mess
since taking over and wrecking Snooks network, they are offering
dealers such good phone subsidies to try and hook new customers
I got Racoon 30 with so much cashback it only costs me around 3quid
a month.

The only thing that galled me was to have to embarrass myself asking
for such a infantile named tariff.
But with millions of pounds invested in totem obsession, the Kings
at Orange tariffs can't admit that they have no clothes on and abandon
the absurdity.
The Animal totems don't even relate in anyway to the tariffs,
what the hell have Racoons have to do with unlimited landline calls??
Or Dolphins with unlimited text, they don't even have fingers!

Looks like anyone with a Huawei E1550 has problems

No problems here running XP with Nokia 6120c or S2 as 3g modems

That forum has put me off 3g USB modems even more
