Doubt it would work and even if it did it would be to slow i would have thought. They can only do 3G speed as they use mobile networks.

I use IDNet, they're a bit expensive compared to the useless tiscali/orange set ups but they're reliable and the support is top notch - fixed IP address too

Yep, i've got a vodafone one that's faster than my ADSL line. Shame i only get 3GB /month download limit on it, so it's no good for bittorrent. I'll smash that in a day
