Wi-fi

We will be staying at POFQ for a week. This is finals for my on-line class. I will need to access the class 3-5 days during our trip. Am I better off paying for internet in my room or is there another option. Also, I will be taking my final exam and if I lose my connection during the test I will not be able to access it again. So, I do need a reliable connection. I will have my laptop with me. Thanks

I would stick to using the access in the room, especially since you will not be able to access the test again if something happens to the wireless connection. Also, if the wireless connection is not secure, anyone can use a sniffer and get your login id and password since it will not be encrypted.

Use the wired connection in the room to be sure that you will not loose the connection. Wireless can be unreliable at times. Since your test is so important just camp out near the jack in the room.

Thanks. I think I will just use the in room connection. Is it pretty reliable? Anyone have trouble w/losing their connection?
