Hi guys,
I travel a lot with my laptop i go from Europe to the far east and
sometimes to America, when i travel i dont know how to get an ISP for
my laptop while i am there. Its not a good idea to register because it
takes time and i might be in the country for a 2-4 days, i am looking
on how to get connected to the internet around thw world.

Some Hotles have internet connection but most of them dont.

Jashnimal,

It just occurred to me -- would an expansion of my comment below about
internet cafes be useful to you as an answer? Provide some more detail
about what you need, and I may be able to find it for you.

Hi! Thanks for another question.

I highly suggest that in short stays abroad, you should use prepaid
internet cards. Prepaid internet cards can be bought in shops, grocery
stores and sometimes even at the airport.

Prepaid internet cards, provided by local ISPs, are simple scratch
cards. After scratching the card you will be provided a username and
password. A small piece of paper comes with the card giving you the
dial-up number you can connect to and instructions on how to set-up a
dial-up connection on your PC. You just need to connect your laptop to
a telephone line and you are ready to surf, download files and send
email just like a regular ISP. No documents to sign and you get
connected quickly.

In the Philippines for example, you can buy a a prepaid internet card
for P100 (less than $2.00!) and you will be connected to the internet
for 9 hours or more! Some cards offer more hours even extending to 20
hrs. They also sometimes have promos like if you use your card in off
peak hours, example 2 am to 7 am, you'll get charged less on the hour.

Thailand even has a prepaid global Internet access.

Before going to a particular country please check the possible prepaid
Internet cards you can buy or better yet check the airport shops they
usually have them bunched with the prepaid call cards.

I am looking for something like what rensinoz-ga  posted. I know about
the internet cards and i dont think its what i am looking for.
Something online would be great or a website were i can pick a country
and it will give me the usernames and password witch will either be
billed to the hotle or to my Cridet Card. I dont like teh card bec
sometimes i would have to go to a shop and stop what i am doing, i am
kinda lazy and would like something online.

i don't know much about finding ISPs abroad that will let you connect
for just a few days, but consider taking your laptop into one of the
countless internet cafes that you can find outside of the USA. In some
parts of the world, you can connect for as low as US$1.00/hour.

I have used this service, it is excellent.  I think it does exactly
what you are looking for.
