I'll be spending the summer in St. Marinella, Italy (a small town outside
of Rome). I'll have my (FreeBSD!) laptop with me, so I'd like to find out
if there's a way to get online.

Is regular dial-up PPP used in Italy as well? If so, where can I find some
kind of adapter to plug the phone line into my modem (RJ11)? If not, how
else can I get online, and what kind of hardware do I need to buy? And of
course, contact info for service providers around there would help as well.

Internet Cafes that let you plug into the ethernet instead of using their
pre-setup lose98/MSIE boxen would be great as well.

I'm leaving on the 29th of June (two weeks from today). As usual, I've lost
track of time and neglected to make this post on time, so speedy answers
would be greatly appreciated ;(

Thanks,
