The best way is to try and get hold of a PAYG 3G sim and see what it picks
up. Failing that if you order the phone over the net or over the phone you
have a 7 day
return policy. This does not count if you buy from a high
street store. I would advise buying over the phone as the sales people can
offer discounts/extras.

Well what you've got to
bear in mind is that the coverage in and around Lincoln (and everywhere else in the UK) via Three is also supported by Orange. So if your coverage is poor with Three it's unlikely to be much better with Orange. I have a work colleague who can vouch for Vodafone's coverage in the Lincoln area but you have to speak as you find and it's no good if it doesn't work in your ...

You just need to call Orange (or whichever network you're on) via a
land
line, and then register. During the process they should ask for your SIM
card number, then after it's been registered it works.

This seem to be happening here in Cornwall as well, I get disconnected every 15-20 mins from the
3g mobile internet on Orange. And my sister gets the same, on her GSM mobile phone.
We phoned Orange and they told us: "The technicians are working on this problem".
Well, I hope they solve the problem asap, because It's driving me crazy.

I would say you're probably stuck to be honest. I also checked the Orange network
coverage map to check signal where I lived and where I work. Here's what the coverage checker promised, and what I actually got:-
Home -
Coverage checker - HSDPA excellent, 3G excellent, 2G excellent
Actual - HSDPA intermittent, 3G intermittent, 2G excellent
Work -
Coverage checker - HSDPA excellent, 3G ...

I take it you've tried switching off and back on?
Which error occurs most often?
If you get the cannot connect error what is your signal like at the time?

What a complete load of rubbish, your phone should work fine, 3g would be faster but if you dont mind it being a bit slow then it will be fine.
Visit http://setuporange.wdsglobal.com/ and send the orange gprs
internet settings to your phone, this page does not always work 100% so you might have to visit again another day if the text does not come through, but this should be all you need to ...
