Yeah, that's my experience. I travel a lot, too, Middle East, Far East, Africa, all over the place, and I connect with wifi (or my work-issued satphone up-link) almost seamlessly, even in Third World locales where one might expect difficulty connecting. I haven't used a dial-up modem in many years.
