Probably cheaper to go for Cyta Red and have a mobile hotspot off your phone to connect the laptops...  rubschin:

So, you get a mobile phone contract with Cyta... They call it Cyta Red...

It uses 4G/5G to bring Interwebz to your phone...

You can then set up the phone as a WiFi 'hotspot' so it acts like your current router - you connect the laptop to it in the same way...

So your laptop connects to the Interwebz via the phone...

 :thumbsup:  use that system everytime BT broadband fails

Doesn't always work so well if you need to print though as the phone doesn't work so well as a WiFi router.  IIRC you can get proper router boxes that'll take your SIM card
Well, whatever, nevermind
