How to Boost your Mobile Broadband 3G Signal

One of the great things about Mobile Broadband is that you can go online anywhere you like – but you can almost guarantee that the place you need it the most is the place where signal is at its weakest.

While 3G coverage is getting stronger with all networks, there will still be blackspots where it drops out, or you can only pick up a 2G signal. Thankfully, a solution is now available to try and get round these signal issues.

The range of Antenna’s simply clip on to the top of your laptop screen, and then either plug into, or wrap around your Mobile Broadband Dongle or Data card and will make a big difference to the signal you receive.

Depending on the modem/dongle that you’re using, the connection method will vary. Some will have an ariel connection that will plug straight into the dongle, and others will take a Universal “strap on” connection. To help you find the right antenna for your dongle, head over to the Mobile Broadband section of the site, and then click on your network operator. Antennas are available for all the UK operators, 3, BT, O2, Orange, T-Mobile, Vodafone and Virgin.

You’ll need to know the model number of your dongle, but this should be printed on label on the underneath of your Dongle or Data Card.

Set up is quick and simple:

Clip the antenna to the screen of your laptop or mount in the desk stand (if included)

Next you’ll need to connect the antenna to the adapter cable. If your dongle has an antenna connection, carefully connect the end of the cable to your dongle.

If your dongle doesn’t have an antenna connection, wrap the universal adapter round your dongle and make sure that it doesn’t stop it from going in to your pc/laptop.

That’s it! All done. Use your Dongle or Data card as normal and you should see an increase in signal strength straight away.
