UK - iPad and 3 Mifi?

Yes, works perfectly.
What I like is that I have a poor 3G signal downstairs at home, but I can leave the mifi in the window upstairs and move around freely with my iPad.
Thanks for that - getting rather annoyed with the wifi on the iPad and not being able to connect in places where i have no issues with my iPhone.
Works perfect, of course as long as you are in a 3UK 3G signal area.
Also search out the alternate firmware for the 3Mifi, it comes from a HK operator and allows web admin and better auto startup and power options.

I was thinking of getting a mi-fi today. What are you all using in terms of data? PAYG or contract?
^ Get a MiFi dongle from ebay unlocked. Works with any carrier network then. I'm using one bought in the UK with o2 in Ireland. No problems.
Now there is a thought - i already have a Vodafone 3G USB stick - so in theory if i get an unlocked MiFi dongle i could stick the SIM in that and happy days.
Nice one, I will check the update out. Don't understand why 3 do not have this firmware.
