| Going on vacation and need Internet We are going to Frisco, NC for 2 weeks and we want Internet access. The house will not have Internet access.
Does anyone know of a service we can get for 2-4 weeks that will work in Frisco, NC? I assume we will need at least a few Gigs of data.
We don't have any smart phones.
We will have 6+ laptops, 2 pads, and some game systems.
If needed, I will use my own access point to extend to all the devices.
Can you use a high gain antenna with these wireless devices to get better range? If so, any recommendations?
Thanks. |

kudos:1 | I suggest Millenicom . It will cost you . go to www.milenicom.com . In Your case you will need to contact them and tell them about your destination and zip code and they will see who has the best coverage .
Good Luck |

Thanks again,

| Will cost too much.
$100 for the device. I expected this.
$50 for setup.
$15 for shipping.
$70 per month. My 2 week vacation will span the month boundary, so I will pay part of the first, then all of the second. Maybe $100.
About $265 for 2 weeks coverage. |

You and I have completely different meanings of what a vacation is. I recommed leaving the laptops, pads, and game systems at home.
When I go on vacation, it does not require internet access!
This is just sad. |

Hmmm . . .
My first thought would be figure out whose service works there and take advantage of their trial period, I think they all have at least a 2 week trial.
Sounds like you might exceed their bandwidth limits though, so that may get expensive, be careful make sure you know the terms of their deal. |
