Does anyone know what the rate is for internet at Disney Resorts?
Thanks!

We paid approx. $10.00 per day last September.

We will need it for homework when we are there. I assume you can hook up with your laptop in your room?

Yes, I hooked up my laptop in my room everyday. Although, sometimes it was a pain. I had to re-hook up every morning. I often had to go through the administrator to get a connection. Not the best for sure and sometimes I got very rude techs on the phone which was surprising considering it was Disney.

In the end though, everything worked out. I absolutely need my laptop and internet connection even while on vacation.

We used it this past Dec..worked very well. No probs..price was around $8.75 a day (24 hrs) I thought?

Before paying for service. See if anyone has an open WiFi connection.
Stayed at Beach Club one year and was able to surf for free.

I thought the fee was 9.95 per 24 hour period.

Since we now are DVC members the internet is included when staying with our points. I always bring my own ethernet cable and Apple Airport Express (http://www.apple.com/airportexpress/), works with PC & Mac,to set up a wireless network in the room. This way I can also download info to my iPhone in addition to our MacBook.

That is reasonable. We paid $15 per hour at an AI in Jamaica. Needless to say I only used 58 minutes the whole week as that is not reasonable! Not being cheap, it is about value isn't it?
