Dialup using your BT line.

Bin it and go with THREE or Tmobile, just plug the adapter in to your PC -
no need for a phone.

If it's a 2G line:
There's a couple of "extras" you can add, one is £1 and switches off the
GPRS meter until midnight that night, or for £5 they'll switch off the
meter for a week (I suspect, midnight at the end of the 7th day of
operation). Without these extras, it's a bit pricey at £4/Mbyte.
If it's a 3G line, I don't know...

You propose that he spends more money to achieve what he already can
with his current equipment? Strange suggestion.

Over the course of a month that would work out quite expensive.
I'd go along with the other poster and look at one of the dedicated
mobile broadband options with the USB modem. I looked into Voda, Three
and T-Mobiles last week. For the coverage I wanted I went with
T-Mobile - I saw it working where I needed access. 20 quid a month and
sold as unlimited but T&Cs state 3GB fair use. and came with free
modem. Have been very impressed with download speeds.

I've been looking at the CarphoneWarehouse T-mobile £20/month (24
months) with £120 cashback. This works out at £15/month over the period.

That's the one. Looks a good offer at the mo - doubtless if you wait
better ones will come along. But for what's needed it does for now.

I think the attempt at sarcasm was maybe lost on you.
