Prepaid DATA in Italy

AFAIK both COOP and Wind "suggest" to use those options on your phone, but you can use them for tethering as well, no problems at all, I have the Internet No Stop on my phone and use it regularly to connect to internet with my laptop too.

It's really great for finding your post about SIM card in Italy.

I have some questions about the setting, mainly Mifi (portable wifi rounter). Would you mind teaching me how to set?

I got a HUAWEI portable wifi rounter, and I'm planning to visit Italy. Will bring along with my portable wifi rounter. I may purchase either TIM or WIND sim card for data roaming, internet. As I know, I need to change/input the APN for it. But from your post, it mentioned that we need to send an SMS by phone to activate the SIM card, then it's different from Mifi setting?! So, would you mind teaching what is the method for Mifi? Many thanks

Kim
