| hi all, have now been in Dubai a week, and loving it. One small problem, can someone help. I have been told that I cannot get internet at home unless I have my residence permit, is this correct? any ways round this? any help appreciated. Many thanks |

That is *mostly* correct. You can't even get a home unless you have a residence permit. Of course, you can always ask the person you're renting off if they can get it installed. |

| I live near a mall and a row of restos/coffee shops and I'm just wondering if I can catch free WiFi access from them while I'm not yet eligible to acquire DSL... |

Build a Cantenna. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cantenna I built one. |

| You can get a No Objection Letter from your landlord allowing you to have internet connection and you'll be online after a short visit to Etisalat. |

Correct me if I am wrong, but you still need residency don't you? |
