Setting up 3 Dongle, for use in Belgium and Germany.

[Deleted User]

Thanks for all the info guys.

I've asked the travel agent, if there's Wi-Fi in the hotel.

If the answer's yes, then I'll give upon the Dongle.

If the answer is no, then I'll probably do without the Internet, hard as that will be.

I used an internet cafe in Belgium some years ago. I think the keyboard was laid out in an unfamiliar way, but I was able to check and send emails. They did not charge much.

Internet cafes are an option.

Another thought is, what's the situation on public Wi-Fi hotspots, in Belgium and Germany?

"Unlike the good old internet caf!s, many of German wifi zones (at airports, stations, bars, restaurants, hotels, coffee shops etc.) are free of charge. However, this is not always the case and sometimes you will have to enter your credit card information in order to get access. However, at some places you will be asked to buy a coupon and pay in cash. You can learn more about methods of payment in Germany from our respective guide article."

OK. I've now got an unlocked MIFI unit.

What's the best local, PAYG sim, for Germany?
