Hi im sorry if this sounds like a silly question but how do i connect to the internet using my data that i am paying for ie data on a sim card?
I can connect to my internet at home and at my siters by connecting through wifi to our home hubs
What i can not figure out is how to connect to my internet when i am away from these devicers? ie the 3gb of data i am paying for each month ...
Sorry if this is a lame question but really need some advice?
I do hope you can help.
Regards

If you orrect the APN settings it will probably be ok but if you still have problems call customer service to check what data bolt on you have. You need idata.
