[BTM] But do you need a special ISP for connection through mobile?

[disciple1]

Hello

Thanks for your input.

I am in Paris, I have a free ISP, who gave me a dialup number and a
login/pass.
My MSP is a company called SFR.
They also offer a "connect to the internet through your mobile phone"
option.
I wonder if I should take that or if I can just connect through my regular
ISP.

Thanks
Alex
