Computer/Internet Service?

[MJMcBride]

I will be in WDW during the fantasy football season and may need a computer with internet access. I will be staying at the Boardwalk. Suggestions anyone?

bump.

come on now

Are you going to be bringing your own laptop? I know most hotels have in-room internet access for a charge of (I think) around $10 a day.

did you try calling boardwalk? if they don't have in room internet access, they may have a business center.

I'll bump you up !!!!!!!

- I'm debating bringing the laptop but no way am I paying a $10/day room connection when nearly everywhere has hot spots around to use w/ the wireless card (except maybe, at WDW!!)
I am wondering about the resort lobbies/food courts, lounges,etc.

All the resorts have broadband in the rooms and I think most have wireless in the lobbies. The cables are already in the rooms for you to hook your computer up. None of it is free at WDW.

Dan -

Thank you for the link - I had seen it before but never bothered to scroll down all the way....

Guess that answers my question! Everyone, sooner or later, has a WDW "boogaboo" - lack of free wireless service in common areas is mine. And since we're at POR,according to the allears, it's broadband in the room or nuthin'!!!!

Oh well....

My Passporter say that at Disney Quest "The Wonderland Cafe sports tables with free internet access, but the custom browser mkaes it tough to surf at will"

Hope this helps!

I called ms earlier this week as my laptop took a nosedive over the weekend. Any of the Convention resorts have computers that you can use for internet access. Im sure there is a fee but I did not ask what that would be. I too need to be able to submit my ff picks.

thanks everyone

1) You said that WDW has a "boogaboo".
2) Well, possibly.
3) But what they really have is a "captive consumer".
4) If you wsant internet, it is going to cost you.
5) WDW does not have to offer free use to entice people to stay at resorts.
6) So, do not anticipate cheap or free internet at WDW resorts.

BWV have internet access in the business center. Just ask at the front desk.
