Paul King Posted June 3, 2008 Share Posted June 3, 2008 Hi Everyone,We have a holiday property in Charente which has no fixed telephone line connected. Is there any way in France of connecting to the web via a internet card without subscribing to a fixed line telephone service? In the UK you can now buy cheap wireless internet cards and connect without a telephone line. Any help much appreciated.Best RegardsPaul. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Danny Posted June 3, 2008 Share Posted June 3, 2008 yes, but only under contract and it is not cheap and limited in terms of how much you can download see this recent thread Danny Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alex H Posted June 4, 2008 Share Posted June 4, 2008 My property is a holiday one - I use the local library for internet access - pay as you go for 0.04c per min or you can buy a card for €6 for 5 hours worth Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
