Ques about free internet

[Chloe'sMom]

Is that wireless or connecting through a phone line?

High Speed Internet through a cable connection. Not wireless, not through a phone line. You will find the ethernet cable in the room on a hanger in the closet.

I hope it is okay to add another question here....have any DVC members used the free internet yet? I heard it was going to be available as of 1/1/08. We are leaving Thursday for OKW and I am wondering if it is up and running yet. Thanks!!!

Don't be fooled, the free internet will not start for a while. Checked out yesterday and $40 was charged for the internet......No credit was given at the front desk either.

Thanks for the info GEB@okw!

Just got back from Disney.......WOW was it cold the other day!

Anyways, there was NO free internet, the pay screen came up on my laptop when I plugged in. I did call down to the front desk and they searched around for about 5 minutes while I was on hold and they did find a memo about it and told me that "it will be offered FREE to DVC members in SPRING 2008." It is wired connection and they provide you with an ethernet cable that is located in the closet.

That's the latest!

DVC has not released any details of the free internet. It was mentioned during the annual meeting that it would be available "in 2008". I think if it wasn't going to be available on 1/1/08, they should have been more clear. DVC seems to have a habit of releasing ambiguous information. Such as the recent announcement of the DDP being available at WDW resorts for members. It was not clear if it was only for points reservations or any reservation made by a member.
