Orange Flybook provides home broadband via mobile

Jan Harris

Orange UK has announced a new router – the Flybook – with a built-in SIM card, which will bring broadband to homes out of range of an ADSL connection.

The device offers fast broadband (up to 1Mbps) to consumers anywhere beyond the 3 kilometres range of the exchange, regardless of their fixed line offering.

The Orange Flybook router, which will be launched in the UK in 2008, includes ADSL broadband, Wi-Fi, four LAN sockets, and sim-card based 3G Mobile Broadband technology.

It is possible to connect a regular phone to the device that will work on the mobile SIM card.
