When did they get installations that are that fast? Candidly, I'm now making a note on every reservation that I must have proper broadband. If I don't I reserve the right to challenge the bill.

Candidly, I’m now making a note on every reservation that I must have proper broadband. If I don’t I reserve the right to challenge the bill.

Some are "free" and some "High Speed" will cost you. It is a pain in the neck to get help on either of them when they do not work to your expectations. The Sprint or Verizon Modem cards work great in EVDO Rev A areas and work much better than most of the "Free" internet services at hotels. There are several Wireless Routers that can allow you to set up a Hot Spot for your room or conference area if you have multiple users on 1 modem card. This helps if you have to share a room with an associatie that does not have their own card. The iBox2Go is a great solution for hotel internet problems.
