3-Mobile network?

We use them on all our Samsung Galaxy Tab's so can see no reason why they wouldn't work for you.

hi,
thanks for this. Do you know if I have to 'root' the nexus? Do you have to 'root' your devices?

Alan

Root them for what?

Android supports tethering out of the box, there's no need to root your Nexus.

Does he mean a dongle for out and about? Though where possible I tether my phone like you're suggesting.

Tethering is also available on the Three network.

I would still check that the plan you have does actually have tethering. I have the One Plan which includes tethering, not all plans do.
