Go to a different hotel.

I think internet in south korea is chea. Get a sim card dongle

south
>>60710517
meant to say it's a dormitry, not a hotel
>>60710503
it's a joint study program, two years here and two years in korea

When I visited there were kiosks in the airport that sold short-term cellphone plans with data. Look up SK telecom options before you go, see if its worth the cost.

as I heard, sim cards in korea are as hard to get as bank accounts, none of the third course students managed to get one, they say koreans don't really want to hand them out to foreigners and you need family relations living in the country
Well also none of them know any proper korean, me neither honestly

Speak to your uni. They are chronically retarded if they are knowingly sending you to a place for two years that has zero internet access.

>go to a place with great internet speeds for two years
>can't use internet
Holy shit your uni is retarded.

A lot of universities don't really give a fuck about students well-being and just want an exchange program to say they've got an exchange program.

complaining about it to uni does no good, unfortunately
SIM's are bloody expensive, though, 23 euros for 4 GB a month

>>60710571
just checked the prices, it's around 16,5 for a 1gb and inf call and sms plan, while I pay 3,5 euros here for the same deal.
that'll be 5 times more than I'm used to paying

You could try connecting to a free wi-fi source nearby.
