Wifi in japan 2016/9/4 23:25
Hi,
I am going to live with my Japanese friend in Tokyo for my 3 month Japanese studying course and
We are renting an apartment together
Since I am a foreigner I need wifi connection for my
Laptop and other electronics
How difficult is it to install a wifi in an apartment
How much will it cost?
Also my Japanese friend doesn't really use wifi
So how difficult would it be to obtain it ?

Its not difficult at all, but for such a short period of time you are probably best off renting a pocket wifi and using that for your internet needs.

"Wi-Fi" refers to a wireless setup for your existing Internet service. Kindly clarify if your friend actually has the net at the apartment home.

Again, I sense a basic misunderstanding. Does your friend receive an Internet bill (other than his mobile phone plan)?

If your friend has the net at home, you could just bring a wireless router and hook it up to his modem. It's probably cheaper to buy one at home and bring to Japan.

While you sort that part out, if you do need to purchase service here:

Oh, well am I renting it in Japan?

Yes, there are many companies around these days that can serve you.

Also is the pocket wifi can be with unlimited data?

Yes, most are unlimited data.

I mostly need for leptop so I prefer a fast internet

Depends on where you live and the time of day, but they are pretty fast.
