Hi all,
My wife wants to but a laptop computer to leave at her family home when she hopefully has her visa to join me in the UK.

They have no phone line at home, and plan to use a USB device to connect to the internet, she thinks thet will use "Globe.net" I have tried to find them with google but have not found them as yet.

I am concerned that some of thease connections do not alow Yahoo or Skype voice and video use?
Can anyone help with a way of connecting a laptop without a phone line that will allow Yahoo and Skype to be used.
Thanks, Mick.:Help1:
