BT include wi-fi access to their customers' routers, which means
you can get wi-fi in many places, including some where there is
no mobile coverage. They also provide an app with which you can
make voice calls over wi-fi, billed at your land line rate.
Plusnet don't provide either of these, or didn't last time I
looked. Obviously you may or may not value these
features!


Why would anyone want the second one?


For places where there's WiFi but no cellular signal?


But why not use the landline .... Aaaaaaaah, I get it. This is for when
you are piggybacking on somebody else's Internet connection via the Fon
thing.
