How to surf the Internet in Portugal
At present, the mainstream way of surfing the Internet is
1, foreign local calling card
2. Portable Wifi
3. Turn on global roaming.
Foreign local calling card
If you only go to Portugal or Iberian countries, then choosing a local calling card is the cheapest way. You need to read the coverage of the calling card package carefully before buying, and the countries covered by different operators will be different.
If you are an "obsessive-compulsive disorder" and are used to getting everything done before going out to avoid the inconvenience that may occur when you arrive in the local area, you can buy a European local card on Taobao in China in advance. Search for "European transnational calling cards", and you can choose packages with different days and flows according to your own needs, and consult the sellers on specific activities and models. The seller will activate it according to your travel time, or the card will be activated automatically, so you don't have to buy it when you go out. Throw it away after use, and use it when plugged in.
However, phone cards also have shortcomings, and need to match the correct network standard and frequency band. Generally, the mobile phones of the whole Netcom are not affected, but if they are China Mobile's 4G custom machine or Telecom's custom machine, they may not be able to use the local 4G network.
After many comparisons, I found a "4G/3G high-speed mobile phone network card from Europe, France, Italy and Croatia" on Taobao. The package is 15 days10.5gb of 4G high-speed traffic+3G unlimited traffic, including 30 minutes of calls to Chinese mainland or Europe. Answering is free. Here, it is particularly emphasized to include a certain amount of talk time in the package. Considering that you may contact the landlord of the hotel or the car rental company, you can also make some emergency calls in case of an accident.
Portable WiFi
When choosing Internet access abroad, many people will like to carry WIFI with them. It is true that you don't have to worry about changing cards when using portable WIFI, and trips involving multiple countries can also be done in one machine.
But there are also some shortcomings: first, you need to pay a deposit when renting a house, and you need to send it back by express after returning home. Most of the businesses that provide airport pick-up and drop-off services are concentrated in airports in big cities such as Beijing, Shanghai and Guangzhou, and they must pick up and drop off at the same place. My good friend once encountered the situation that he missed his connecting flight in China because of the plane delay. He could have directly chosen the high-speed train to return to Zhejiang, but he had to return the portable WIFI to Shanghai first because he had to return it at the pick-up point.
Secondly, although the portable WIFI is small in size, it is still a bit troublesome to bring one more thing when traveling. If it is used by many people in hot spots, it needs to be fully charged at any time.
Finally, the cost of using portable WIFI is not very cost-effective, which is comparable to the cost of opening international roaming. And once you rent it, even if you don't open the internet for a day, you still charge it according to the daily fee, which is not cost-effective.
