    Normally a phone line wouldn't be so hard to provision but I guess this is in a park which was built long before the era of broadband

    OpenEir previously had no issues provisioning lines to Caravans and mobile homes when they were stationary. But if its not regularly inhabited that'd be expensive.

    If theres 3 coverage in the area then grab a 3 AYCE sim card and a B593 to start with. It'll cost them 20E for every month that they need it for unlimited data.

    Well it be used from Easter every year at the weekends and some week days in the summer till the end of September. I'll look into the Second option anyway thanks. See the way you mention Unlimited Data if for instance I got that up and working would a streaming device like an android box cover it ? Apologies I'm not very techy had to google both of the terms you used :D.

    Only spotted this thread now, so sorry for being a bit late. I have a mobile home in Wexford, and use Vodafone mobile broadband, as Vodafone is the only one which will work there. I struggles with streaming when the park is busy, but is just about do-able. However, it can eat the data allowance, so if you can get an 'all you can eat' arrangement, it could work out well for you.
