Singapore - The internet in Singapore.

I'll be in Singapore shortly without my laptop. Apart from the hotel I'm staying in, where else can I have access to the internet?

Thanks,
Cypress

The whole country has 3G service. SIN is quite well to do so there is a lack of street internet cafes. I manages quite well on a 3G pay as you go SIM Card which I picked up at Changi for SGD35. Proper use of mail filters will keep you packet cost down.

Many Asian hotels charge for internet. They also have pay as you go terminals near the lobby or in the business centre.
Depending on the hotel it can be pay for a block of 30 minutes and you will be disconnected when your time is up. Most places is a one time sign in only.
Some places will give you a one day all you can use, seems like SGD25 is the standard rate in 02/11.

The airport has free internet. So you might want to check your e-mails there before you head off to your hotel.

I did a fast web search. I came up with this:

Taking a fast look, the majority are in the city area, so you should be able to find an internet cafe easily. But I also agree with FN-GM about using the internet computers at Changi Airport. There's a lot of them (and I mean a LOT), and they're all free (note: they're all on airside). So get your mails done when you arrive (before passport control), and when leaving remember to send out your mails right before you board the plane.

Sign up for Wireless@SG and then can use the free wifi hotspots all over Singapore (assuming you have a smartphone).

M Gallery on Orchard Road also have free internet through out the shopping centre (and a tasty brunch place that's my personal favourite called Wild Honey).

If you need a computer as well might be a bit harder to find. There are internet cafes around but not all over the place

Thank you fellow FT'ers for your suggestions. They were much appreciated.

I think you need a Sigapore Mobile phone number to use Wireless@SG

Sorry yes should have added if you don't have a Singapore Mobile number (+65...) then you can either register at the Info Centre at Changi Airport or at a Singtel, M1 or Starhub Service Centre. Not sure how easy it is but worth a try!

I do believe the airport has free wireless internet. Check with the info counter on arrival.

I didn't have a singapore SIM or number and didn't have any trouble registering for Wireless@SG.

There is free internet at Changi as mentioned, Wireless@SG coverage in parts of the city if you have a smarpthone; and if you need internet cafes, there are many reasonably priced ones in Little India (about $1 SGD per hour).
