I tried to get a better connection in November in the Aveyron. Previously my mum was using her UK dial-up to connect which was not a great solution. I bought a pay-as-you-go dongle (cle internet) from SFR but could not get it to work. A local mac-loving expat had a go at his place and got it to work but even he could not make it work at my mum's place which is less remote if anything. To cut a along story short he got a connection after a fashion using another dongle but I am not sure which (might be Orange).
