Free WiFi Is Plentiful But Can Be a Hassle.
In Singapore, there are several sites where you may get free WiFi. Shopping centers and museums, for example. On arrival, you can also sign up for a free account at Wireless@SGx. After registering, you can use the Internet at any of the many Wireless@SGx hotspots across the country, including libraries and museums. The service itself is a free app that, once set up, will keep you automatically connected during your stay.
However, as appealing as they are, the signal quality of such free services is frequently unstable, especially in congested areas such as Changi Airport and fast-food outlets. If this is a problem for you, go to a 7-11 convenience store and get a tourist SIM card instead. These are quite inexpensive and come in a variety of styles.
For example, in 2022, a Singtel tourist SIM card with 100 GB 4G local data will cost only 15 Singapore dollars. Some versions are also "EZ-Link" capable, which means they can be used to travel by public transportation. Overall, it's a good deal for convenience across the island.
