WHen I plug my dongle into the pooter a red light comes on. Then a blue light. When I connect the blue light flashes.If the light goes green then that means I am on a slow connection. I spent about half an hour yesterday wandering around trying to get the light to flash blue instead of green. This only happens if I stand on a sofa with my laptop at chest height.Any suggestions?

Had the problem at LL's rented house in Epsom...Get a USB extension cable then you can move the dongle around till you get a blue (3G) signal instead of the slower green (GPRS) signal...Happy to help...
