Are you living in an apartment? You should be able to get a cable connection. This is what I have. It’s installed and provided by the local cable TV company. I paid NT$500 for installation and NT$6000 for 12 months and I’m happy with it.
Good luck.
Just get a wireless lan card. Open wlan accesspoints area almost everywhere. I checked in 3 diffrent appartments and parks in Taichung. Most accesspoints dont run MAC controll or a wep key.
But i dont know if according to taiwanese laws you might break a law.

I have cable. The way it works is that first you have to get cable TV. In Taichung City this is provided by the Chun Chien (Chun Jian) company, whose phone number is 04-2311-8811
Once you have the cable TV, you can contact the internet company, who will bring round a cable modem for you to rent, do a little stuff with the cable TV wiring, and set it all up with your computer.
I think the internet company is called Lightning Speed Communications; anyway their number’s 04-2312-3333.
The cable TV’s about 500NT a month and the slowest internet service is 300NT on top of that. I have this ‘slow’ service and it’s fine for web browsing and lo-fi internet radio. If you need more speed, there are several options but of course you have to pay more.
