Our holiday home is in Gassin (VAR). I have a Huawei b593 router and just installed a poynting XPOL-0001 antenna. Over the last few years i've tried:


 * ) Orange prochet a surfer -  Where we are really low signal but when working got really good download. Not a lot of data, and not reliable enough


 * ) Three tethering - Shocking. Roams on Orange which has poor signal anyway, but when connected wouldn't get anywhere near 0.5mb down. Three definately throttle speeds on their Go Roam product.


 * ) Tesco mobile tethering (really O2). Roams to Bouygues. Excellent download speed (would sometimes get 10mb down!). However, its the SIM from my wifes phone so it annoys her not having data when we are out and about.


 * ) Reglo. So far, really solid. Averages at about 5mb down but have seen up to 10mb down too. 9.95 Sim for 20gig data is a great deal!

For now I am going to stick with Reglo. There is a Leclerc near us and i got the 9.95 sim. I couldn't activate it online and had to call them up, but the phone operator spoke superb english - i had to give them an IBAN and BIC code. I've paid 9.95 for the last 3 months and in November I might change to the Mini formular just to keep the SIM until next spring when i can go back to  9.95. 10 euros to keep the SIM and not have to call up again feels like a good deal!
