Hi folks,
Have there been any updates on the broadband situation? We'll be heading out soon and I wouldn't mind an extended stay while we get the place furnished etc... would nice to be able to do a bit of work if I did this.
I noticed someone mention mobile broadband below and I came across the following price list for the various providers.
[removed] - right, seems I can't post a link until I've made 10 posts. Fair enough, I've copied the gist of the article at the bottom.....
Seems quite expensive so may be a better bet for connecting on holiday rather than 'working from home' out there.
Any thoughts?
