Hi,

I bought the aldi sim and usb modem and all was good, until recently.
It is now going so slow that loadinga page takes forever and talking on skype is impossible, I know it is the modem/sim as I have borrowed my friends Bild Mobil and that is working great. Does anyone have any idea why after 1 month of working it now won t???
This is in Germany/Frankfurt

Probably because you are outside of 3G coverage (3G coverage is indicated by the modem blinking blue, otherwise it's green) or your local cell is just congested, like most of the eplus network, which Aldi uses.
If you want fast and reliable internet access at resonable rates get a Tchibo or Fonic SIM card. Tchibo currently sell their SIM at a promotional price of € 1.
For further information on Tchibo and Fonic refer to the Home - Prepaid Wireless Internet Access
