Long time listener, first time caller
Have acer aspire one netbook with 9.10. I have until now been using a phone with an app to convert 3G to 802.11g but the cost per MB through a phone just isn't comparable to the cost per MB through a dongle. So I want to switch to a dongle. (As an aside, why the blinkin flip?? This has actually quite annoyed me; why a MB delivered through 3G to a phone cost soooooo much more than a MB delivered through 3G to a dongle). I would like to use Orange and they say the dongle does not support Linux. I suspect the dongle does, and orange are choosing not to (whereas another of the big five have set up a repository to support their dongles). From what I have read online, some folk have had some success with some dongle models. Anyone using a dongle from orange with an ubuntu netbook? Which model dongle did you use? Or which service provider seems the most Linux friendly? Cheers Dave Smith
