Internet Connection

[DISNEYBIGGDOGG]

I will be at All Star Movies from 3-25 to 4-2. I need to be able to get on the net and check orders placed through my business. Is there internet access in the rooms? If not, where on property can I do this?

Thanks

We had to use dial up...high speed internet is at the GF, CR, CSR, BWI, YC/BC I believe.

If you have wireless access with your laptop, rock on!! I was staying at AKL at went over to CSR to check emails. The charge was $9.95 for 24 hours of access. They also had computers that you could use, but the charge was $10 for 15 minutes, yikes!!!

Dial up is 75 cents per call. No per minute charges.

OKW has high speed access as well. Very simple to use....$9.95 per contiguous 24-hour period.

I am on the internet right now in our CBR room. My husband's laptop is plugged into the phone line.
I'm not sure if that's what you mean or if you mean without your own laptop?

Thanks pw2pp,

I have a wireless laptop and I would love to take it with us to CBR when we go in Aug but I don't want to pay tons of money to get online. Right now I connect to the internet via a cable modem-Comcast so I wasn't sure how the dial-up would work.

If I were to use my laptop at CBR would I have to use the phone line or is it wireless?

Hope you are having a blast? I can't wait for our trip. I think about Disney everyday and I check these boards everyday! I am going crazy just waiting for August.

Internet connection at CBR is dial up through the phone. Only the convention hotels have wireless access to the internet.

If you have cable internet you are also going to need an ISP provider. (I don't think mine has any dial up ablity)

 

[Lorelai71]

Thanks. I guess that means no computer for me. Not really a bad thing.

When you say ISP provider, do you mean lik AOL?

 

[safetymom]

Yes. If you have AOL on your laptop then all you would need is the local phone number for AOL at your resort. You can look those up ahead of time.
