DVC and internet access

[DisneyDudet]

Tell me about it...

What is the cost? Is it the same as other resorts, like $9.95?

Thanks!

High Speed internet access in DVC resorts is free for members using their membership.

 

[DisneyDudet]

Awesome! Thanks for the speedy reply!

I'm sure I knew that, but I couldn't find it anywhere this morning!

Do they have cables in the room or do I need to bring one?

The ethernet cable will be in the closet in a bag hanging on a hanger.

There will be a cable in the room. It should be in a bag hanging in the closet/armoire. It will be about 5 feet long. If missing, call housekeeping.

Do DVC renters get free internet access, too?

No, renters can have access of course, but there will be a charge.

I'm not sure this is the case. If the room is booked through member services, I believe the internet access is free. Anyone have actual experience with this?

Persons booking a room at a DVC resort through CRO have to pay the $9.95.

Off topic a bit, but I took my wireless router which worked flawlessly at BWV. We had wifi connection when staying in a villa at Vero Beach, so no cord or router was needed. Connection at vero wasn't great at all times.

I have never seen a charge if the room is booked on points.

We have had a charge for internet on our final bill when we checked out and we were members staying on points. We showed our member ID and the charge was removed.

This used to be a common problem for a short period when free internet was first introduced. I haven't heard of it happening recently. When were you charged?
