I would like to visit my relatives in Indonesian soon. I'm planning to take my laptop with me. My laptop has mobile broadband Internet with a doggle. I will be there for about a month so while I'm there I can still talk (and see via webcam) and with my family in UK.

Wireless internet is not an option because my relative back in Indonesia does not have telephone line or wireless broadband.

My question is, can I access Internet with my laptop that curently has mobile broadband on while in Indonesia? Or do I have to have a special doggle so that I can access the Internet with my laptop while I'm there?

Thank you very much for your help.

Who is your provider? It will probably be far too expensive to use abroad.

He is asking about mobile broadband, not wifi. They are very different.

If you check out the Mobile-8 Indonesia site, I think you'll find info there.

Would it not be cheaper to get a pay as you go dongle when you get there, that is I'm assuming, that they are available over there. I think that you can get them pre paid for short term use in most countries.
