    No connected landline means no ADSL broadband, in the absence of any cable service. Other than a dongle, satellite broadband is the only other option (expensive).
    Why can't you get a landline?
    No free lunch, and no free laptop ;)

    Getting a phone line installed with broadband will cost you a damn sight less than satellite broadband.
