    Using mobile date for pc and as a modem or hub

    Hi
    My virgin broad band just shot up to 40quid a month, i can get unlimited data on o2 for 30 a month, i understand usb tethering but can i somehow use the same way for my tv, set top box and ipad Was thinking a gsm modem but would prefer to just use my phone, this will also save the 20quid a month mobile/cell phone bill, Not sure what i need and would appreciate some pointers here before i waste cash on stuff i dont need.
    All the best
    Arthur

    If out of contract phone them up to cancel good chance they will offer you a deal , you may need to go through the process as you prob have to give 30 days notice .
    if they dont offer you a deal there and then they will probably phone you back before the 30 days is up.

    i use my phone for data when im out on the road , the speed is really not the best maybe worth tethering youre phone to check the speeds first , you can do it via a pc/laptop wifi or usb connection.
