    Pretty good in most places.
    I was an IPSE Consultative Council Member, until the BoD abolished it. I am not an IPSE Member, since they have no longer have any relevance to me, as an IT Contractor. Read my lips...I recommend QDOS for ALL your Insurance requirements (Contact me for a referral code).

      Check out the reviews from business travellers on Trip Advisor. Also check that the wifi is free - I've been stung for that in the past when it said "all rooms have wifi".

        20 Euros gets you a SIM including 600 minutes and 2GB Data.
        Thanks!
        I have Android, so Italian SIM + "Portable WiFi" setup on my phone should do the job if 3G/4G is decent in Turin ...

          Do they have internet-oriented operators, like Three here?

              Does having Android automatically unlock your devices so that you can put a SIM from a different provider in there? Or have you unlocked the device already?

                Just was wondering if anyone knows some clues how to find hotels with good WiFi so that I can access my clent's network if needed. Are there any websites with the freelancer's reviews?

                I'm off to Italy and even through any hotel these days claim that they have internet, quite often you'd find that the signal is weak in the room or there are some stupid restrictions(closed ports etc). Obviously I could opt for a good business-class hotel, but it's kinda pricey, isn't? Unless you know any budgety business hotel chain ..

                So far I'm just contacting hotels asking the above, but they normally would host tourists, so not sure if they'll come up with reliable answer.

                Any tips/advise?
                This has to be the most useless thread ever. Off to Italy...erm..where exactly ?
