<p>I don't know about a basemap - BUT - I'd try the quickmap
services plugin. It's way more current than openlayers. Just be
sure to click Settings -> More Services -> get contributed
pack to get extra services added in (like Google and a few
others). <br>

project based in the Azores and wondered if anyone knew of any
reasonably good free topographic base maps I can download,
strictly for non commercial purposes. At the moment, I'm
trying to use the OpenLayers plugin, but I have a VERY slow
internet connection which makes OpenLayers or WMS
frustratingly slow to load. Thanks in advance for any ideas,
Sarah. </div>
