Currently in Verona, Italy.
This is the speed I am getting with the Global Gig 3G modem (faster than the local hotel wifi below)
I notice it defaults to a UK based IP address even though I am in Italy.
And this is what I am getting with the Hotel wifi.
One final thing to check, looking at the UK site for Global gig it seems they have different plans depending on the country of purchase. It looks like Aussies are getting the best deal.
