    To put it simply.
    Different country had different rule. That include the way you could connect to internet and the cost for it.
    So share your way and let ythe rest of the world envying you or deriding you.

    Let's start from me:
    I connect to internet via my cellphone network provider broadband GSM services.
    It's fixed data quota based. With 3 $ for every 1.25 GB data used (usually for 3 weeks), with tethering ability without additional cost. The phone can still be uaed for traditional mesaging and phone. But I prefer using whatsup or Line or BBM to send message or voip call. Since it cheaper.

    So how about the rest of the members?

    Wow for 6 years.... so how much that cost... a cursory search that internet cost in some country like Nordic or Korea is way more cheaper than othet countries.
    In indonesia that similar plan cost about 100 $ a year so that means it 600 $ give or take.

    Yeah... even I dont know how a small box in my hand let me communicate with someone faraway while still let me hear Mana Khemia OST...

    Wow. Too much people using magic. I personally use an elaborate contraption that uses a giant hamster wheel as a power supply. Naturally, finding a giant hamster is a quite hard, since none are available in craigslist, so usually just hire some hobos or my cousin Tom to run it(run it!)
    Oh, and it has an antenna made of bamboo stick, copper wires and aluminum foil, Bam! Wi-Fi

    Seriously though, PC, Mobile, PS4 Browser, PSP Browser.

    Some old style phone cable technology that uses a wifi router. It's a bout 10$/month and the speed is 8mbps. It's ADSL2+, I think it's quite a low quality but it's ok for reading novels.

    @Yukkuri Oniisan

    I'm connecting to the internet through magic. When I woke up one day, I realized that my whole house was uprooted and planted in an unknown forest. I made a bit of commotion when I posted a video of some goblins trying to break through my front gate to 2chan. I also saw a dragon flying away and saved a little loli who is now my adopted little sister and wearing my real imouto's clothes. I wonder how the future will go for us...

    On a more serious note, I use Unifi, which comes with free satellite TV network. I have no complains. It lags when I play high bandwidth netgames but since I paid for the cheapest package, I have no right to argue. It's about USD40 a month.

    Btw... I connect to Internet using a Cellphone Data or using Guts and Glory (University Wifi during lecture, almost caught, never surrender)
