Dialup access in Italy

by Volker Weber

A friend of ours is going to Italy in a week from now to stay at his house in Pettenasco at Lago d'Orta. He has a phone line, but so far has had no Internet access. He will take along a notebook computer with a regular modem, but he has no plans to get a DSL line.

How do I get him online?

Are there any dialup providers in Italy, which just charge through the phone bill without requiring a contract with monthly fees? I heard that Fastweb provides free dialup services, where you just pay the local call, but I am unable to find the information I need on their website.

Can anyone of my Italian readers help? I would need the number to dial from Pettenasco and the login credentials to set up in Windows.

Hi,
denkt der Kollege an ein UMTS-Modem? Dann wäre der Wind Service mit der Mega-No-Limit noch eine Möglichkeit - meine letzte Info: 30 Euro, 5 GB!

Das ist eine Prepaid-Karte, die kann er vor Ort kaufen. Kostet 5 Euro und dann läd man auf.
