Thankfully,
these days, there are many ways to connect to the Internet while
traveling. Steven researched them all. He's used most of the
methods so you will learn from his firsthand experiences.
For example:
Many RVers are now using cellular phones to go online. For the most
part, these connections are relatively slow, but to RVers who otherwise
need to find a phone line to plug in their modems, it seems like
a miracle to go online from the comfort of their motorhome or trailer.
Perhaps you have heard of WiFi, or "Wireless Internet," where you
can connect at broadband speed (fast) from Starbucks cafes, truck
stops and even some McDonald's restaurants. The number and
locations of these 'hotspots' is growing rapidly. Truck stops are
of special interest to RVers since they are often the preferred
fuel stop. Refuel and get your email too.
It won't be long before thousands of RV parks offer the service.
KOA has already installed WiFi at many of its RV parks with hundreds
more locations coming soon. Lots of independent parks are too. Reading
Steven's eBook you'll learn how Wi-Fi works, how easy it is
to set up, where to find hotspots and how much it costs (sometimes
it's free!). All the info is especially gear toward RVers on the
road.
More and more, RVers have installed satellite internet systems that
allow them to be online virtually anytime and anywhere. This is
especially useful for RVers who visit remote areas or need to know
they will have internet wherever they go. While a satellite system
is still an expensive option you may be surprised to know prices
have dropped... a lot. Steven tells you how and where he got his
system and reviews the pros and cons.
He even includes information about inexpensive devices that can
send and receive email for RVers who do not take a computer on the
road. You'll also learn how to get YOUR email using someone
else's computer.
If you are at all serious about staying connected to the internet
while RVing this book is for you. A lot research and personal experience
went into this book so it is sure to have the information you need.
