Hi All,
My story...
My neighbour wanted better internet speeds, so he upgraded his Sky package to take advantage of fibre to the cabinet. The engineer, somehow switched our lines, so that I got his phone calls and he got mine. Neither of us was left with a working internet connection. It took two days to sort it out.
We also live in a poor mobile reception area, so trying to work via our phones was a non-starter. My wife and I both work from home, so this was a major pain in the ****!
Any suggestions on some sort of broadband fallback device? I don't mind an upfront cost (within reason), nor paying for a month of data when needed, but I don't want to pay a monthly fee for something I might never use.
Any advice much appreciated
Thanks,
Grelly
