    Yes you do. You will need internet access with a WIFI modem.
    I assume there is no cable in Madeira so it would come via the telephone line.
    Another possibility would be by satellite dish. Again not sure if its available.
    I just use a dongle as I'm only over about 6 or 7 times per year, so a phone line would be a waste.

    thank you Madmick.
    I feel that im losing bookings by not having internet on the apartment.
    I rent to lots of people from around the world and all are happy by use a dongle but people from uk dont like, and demand WIFI in the permises.
    regards

    There is cable on the island depending on where you are. I would think there would be in Funchal. There is a website that tells you where cable is available, but I don´t have the address.

    Here is another possibility for you to look at. It avoids the need for a telephone line. This is what I have in the UK and I don't see why it would not in Madeira. Personally I have bought an unlocked HUAWEI E586 3/4G MIFI device. This is a device which connects to the mobile network with a data SIM. It then gives a connection to up to 5 wifi devices. You will then need to get a data SIM for it.

    Hi Joao,

    if you want to have happy customers you should install an internet WiFi router with cable, like zon or netmadeira.

    internet via mobile network is more frustrating than satisfying.

    Ok
    I have a nook tablet which is afiliated with a book store
    I order books which automatically is transfered or dawnload to the nook.
    My question is, do they use those nooks in Madeira too?
