The Internet on Crete has been lagging behind northern Europe but you will still find internet cafes in most places these days.
Fortunately ADSL has become more widespread. Speeds are still low (around 2 to 4 Mbps) apart from city centres where you might get up to 24 Mbps but at least you may now get ADSL outside of the cities. Prices vary depending on packages so it is best to check the current offers of ISPs.
The main service providers are Otenet and Forthnet but other companies operae as well. Most do have to use the lines of OTE (which used the be the state telephone company) though so don't expect huge variations in speeds on offer.
Wireless internet is slowly starting to spread and there are hotspots in towns and even villages. If you are staying at a specific hotel check what their facilities are.
If you must have your own internet connection for a short period it might be worth checking the offers of Cosmote and Vodafone for mobile internet. Not cheap though.
