.. yeah, how does it work?

And before you say 'just google it!' I did just google it but I don't really understand. So you can pay $4.40 per month to have unlimited downloads on dialup speed, right? How fast (slow) actually is dialup? I've never had it so I don't even know.

Otherwise, for broadband, it's a 100MB limit and 3.3c for ever MB over that? I'm sure I read somewhere that the src changed it to unlimited internet downloads, but maybe I was hallucinating because it does seem too good to be true and I can't find it anywhere on the website. At home I have a 5GB limit and I use that up in about 3 days haha... but if I just start using the internet for research and stuff, is 100~500MB ish sufficient per month?

You get 6mb free per day on the wireless network. If you want more it's like 2 cents per MB or some shit, and u gotta have money already on ur prepaid extro account (that's what u use for printing, wireless etc)

Find someone who already has internet access, ask to borrow their laptop and install a keylogger, retrieve their internet login details. Enjoy your free internets.

Repeat for unlimited free internets.

Starting this year internet access is completely free for students. You just need to have a unikey to be able to join the VPN.
