Internet in italy?

Question

I'm going skiing to Pejo, Italy, and the hotel doesnt have internet access. I have laptop with 3g card , can i just buy a sim-card, charge it for few days and use internet?

what options do i have? i don't know italian, so i don't know about providers...

can you also tell me does all operators have actually range in Pejo ? it's actually pretty deep in mountains

and how much it can costs...

Answer 1

if Vodafone is available in the area you can buy a card for internet:

using GSM6 cent/minute

using  GPRS50 cent/every 15 minuti

using  UMTS1 euro/every 15 minuti

ABOUT WIFI

wifi connections are ALL locked, don't count on wifi in italy (only in big city like rome you can find same hot) spot

Answer 2

I am not sure about the specific area but Italy is Wi friendly. The usual technique is to by a local card and it will give you access for whatever time you buy for. Doesn't work in the real rural areas in the south but does every where else.

Answer 3

I've just looked up Pejo - lucky you!

I know little abt computers so can't help you. But I can reassure you that with all of the hotels in the area that the entire area must be wired for internet. I'm sure the mountain tops are chuck full of transmitting towers (too bad) and that you are bound to find a way to get on line.
