Hi Tristan,

I have 3G routers & dongles for hire and can deliver free within a
couple of miles of Stoke Newington. I can do you 1 months hire of a zoom
wifi+ethernet 3G router + T-mobile dongle + 1 month credit for £35. I'm
having a weekend off but will be available on Monday so drop me a
message if that's any use to you.

Regards,

Roger
