Sorry I am bothering you but the advice I have asked for in the past has been perfect. I am moving from an area with Tortoise slow Broadband to an area with fibre and a speed of 76MBPS and would like some advice on the best dongle to get. Bear in mind I am 70 and need to be able to handle it.
Cheers boys. Bluebirds for a Draw with Liverpool .

76 Meg is a decent speed, you will not really need a Dongle ( unless you mean a wifi dongle for your PC ), just choose a provider, i guess the 76 Meg line is with BT ( as that is one of the Infinity speeds ( though it might not be quiet that quick )) , they will send you everything you need, a router which will plug into your phone line, you will then connect to that with either a Cat 5 cable or wifi

Probably best if you describe what you think you need this dongle for. As matt said above it doesn't sound as if you'll need one so maybe a misunderstanding?

Sounds like you may need a few terrapins of memory.

Thanks for the reply Matt , maybe I was not using the correct term. I wanted the plug in that gives you extra channels, sport etc.
