mobile internet in spain

I go to spain quite regular to parents in law place, they do not want a phone line as it will mean hassle.

I am going for 4 weeks in the summer and want to get the internet, ( will not be able to cope without it)

I have thought about getting one of those USb thingies but not sure if its worthwhile, any one any suggestions on how to get it,

Internet cafe no go as too far away, mobile costs are silly

    it's a portable wifi/ mobile router which you can take everywhere in spain, you'll have a flat rate wifi connection where you can connect up to 5 smartphones/pc/tablets.

    they send it to your designed spanish address (hotel, your friend's place...) and you have to turn it on, and voil!, there's internet! before you fly back, send it back.

    i really recommend it, tripneter.com
