Browse all day (00:00 - 24:00,) (25-50MB,) on Orange for Ł1.

I live in the centre (close to the telephone exchange,) of a town in the U.K.
I pay British Telecom Ł12 a month standing charge (swines,) for my line, and Orange Ł15 a month for "broadband."
I get a consistent 113-119KB/sec download.
Minimum wage is Ł5.35.

I bought a second-hand 3G Motorola brick off Ebay.
modprobe cdc-acm
/usr/sbin/pppd connect '/usr/sbin/chat -v "" "AT&F" OK "AT+CGDCONT=3,\"IP\",\"ORANGEINTERNET\"" OK "ATD*99***3#"' noauth /dev/ttyACM0 115200 defaultroute noipdefault user ppp usepeerdns crtscts

FLUCTUATES GREATLY, but I seem to be getting average 25-33KB/sec., ALTHOUGH I need to monitor it for some time.

Anybody got fantastic knowledge of pppd options, please like to suggest anything?

Best Regards.
