Internet in Norway
Most Norwegian households are connected to the Internet in some way (often broadband), making cybercafés hard to find outside major cities, due to a relatively small market. Most public libraries have free public access to the internet, but a limited number of computers and limited opening hours.
However, if you bring a laptop with a wireless connection you will find wireless internet zones just about everywhere(gas stations, city centres, cafés, shopping centres, hotels etc), be prepared to pay for it though. It is not unusual for hotels to have a terminal for guest use. Around 60% of camp grounds have wifi internet, but if it's crucial for you, best to ask before paying for your camping space.
As of August 2011, Telenor (national telecoms provider) sells prepaid wireless 3G internet dongles for computers (kr. 700, about €100), kr. 150 buy-in must be purchased with the dongle itself, that comes with kr. 50 credit and 300Mb of data to be used in 4 days. Then, another kr 150 purchase must be made for 15 days unlimited internet access. 3G speeds are very usable, and if 3G service is not availabe the dongle steps down to 2G (not so much fun). Of course, these prices and conditions may change quickly. There is a mobile phone shop at Oslo airport (landside) that sells phone equipment.
