I am leaving on thursday and i will be taking my netbook. i hear from my parents who have just returned from a large trip thru bali/lombok that u can bye a pre paid card from the places u bye phone sim cards and you just go to there site and connect by entering the details of the card and your on, just dont forget to disconnect otherwise you will use all your credit.
they said it can be good and bad depending on location. i have also heard there is a few brands and by choosing a less popular one you will recieve a better connection and its less likely to dropp out due to a less crowded network.
if you are staying in kuta/legian or nusa dua or ubud area your best off just going into a internet cafe and use your computer on there connections.
