i have had 3g mobil internet for a month now £15 a month inc vat 3gig download limit 3.6meg download speed.
i sea fish all over the south coast and take my laptop with me and it works perfect.
it works that well that i have got rid of my bt line at home which was costing me £500 a year as opposed to £180 a year with 3g and the modem was free.
and i can use it anywhere subject to coverage.
a bit of kit i would reccomend.
a few things i had to do like set up new email addys with hot mail and change my ebay/paypal email addys but so far im well pleased with it.
i see vodaphone are doing somthing much the same but charging £25+vat for the same deal as i got with 3.
reading last night that some caravan sites are now doing Wi fi one of which is windermere,as it happens we are there next week so hoping to get internet on my new laptop,cost? do not know.sure i read somewhere it can be got for £7 a month.do not caravan for 12 months (winter) so i would have to pay for non use.i was informed today it should be possible with no added extras.anyone got a list of Wi fi sites?thought i had seen one. by windermere i mean the C C Club site.
------------- the only silly question is the one you do not ask.
wifi aint no good to me as i dont do sites.
i only wild camp.
also tried wifi/hotspots and aint found one that worked very well?
used it on the beach at pevencey eastborne and it worked 100%.
if you get 4/5 computers on a wifi it narrows the band so much its like dial up?
wont be useing abroad if i go on holiday abroad the last thing i want or need with me is a computer?but it is 10p a meg.
