Welcome to O2 Mobile Broadband
Now you’ll be able to get online from your laptop anywhere that the O2 network
covers, or through any of The Cloud Wi-Fi hotspots, using your USB modem.
It’s the simplest and quickest way to access the internet on the move.
The USB modem works on a PC and a Mac and will automatically
find the fastest speeds for you to connect.
If fixed broadband or Wi-Fi is available, we always recommend using
either of these rather than mobile broadband to get the fastest experience.

How fast can you go?
The speed you get will depend on how far away you are from a transmitter, the
number of people using the network and the type of network you’re connected to.
As we improve our network you will automatically connect to the fastest network
available. The LED on the modem changes colour to indicate which network is
available and which network you’re connected to.
