Answer 6

All the main mobile companies do plans for laptop broadband.  the device is USB based.  Just plugs in when you need it.

The only drawback some of the capacities are low, for the rent.  And they are not as fast as most landlines.  And whatever you do, don't use them overseas...

Answer 7

Most landline phone providers that offer DSL will provide it without a phone. It,s called dry DSL.

Answer 8

u can get these little adaptors,that u just plug into laptop,in usb,and pay a monthly fee,t.moblile do them and 3pay,go into any phone shop and enquire,prices will vary on the amount of time you want too use it for,

its like a pay as you go internet,and you can use it anywhere,

i think they cost between £10-£30 a month depending on useage,

hope that helps,i was going too get one for my daughter too use before i got broadband,as fed up with them all running fone bill up,so thought if i had one of the adaptors they can only use internet,not fone,as no land line is needed,

but changed my mind and got total broadband instead,lol,which still works out cheap,as all fone calls go via internet,i pay £20 pm,for landline renatl broadband and homehub,and calls are free evening and weekends,and mobiles are a lot cheaper,so it depends on wot you want really,

if you dont want landline go for adaptor thing,if you decide too have landline,go for one that includes a package,i.e freecalls included with braodband,
