Slight techno-geek question, but is the high speed connection at the BWV wireless or over an ethernet cable? Assume you "subscribe" on a fairly pricey daily basis like at Hilton Hotels?

It's a cat-5 cable connection in the room for $9.95 per 24 hours. It's a consecutive 24 hours from when you connect, which is nice. Most hotels do it from check-out time to check-out time the next day or from midnight to midnight. We actually took a wireless router with us and plugged that into the wall connection, then used the built-in wireless in both our laptops to use the wireless.

It's certainly not the best connection we've had with high speed in a hotel. There are random up and down issues and bandwidth problems. Our suspicion is it's not true broadband in the rooms and they're just sharing off their network connection for the main hotel and convention center. We've never seen those kind of drop-offs at other hotels.

One suggestion - take your own cable. We forgot ours and there wasn't one in the room. Thankfully a call to housekeeping was all it took to get one delivered.
