The location, food, attractions, weather and all were great, but there
are only 2 techs where I work and the other guy doesn't do servers,
routers, switches, firewalls and such.

He does desktop support for the labs and faculty and staff.  About 600
pcs total, so we both have our hands full and so staying in touch is a
must for me.

Not that I'm tied to a computer all day but once a day would be almost
mandatory.

I just got home from a week in Fort Lauderdale Florida, stayed at a
pretty nice resort.  No internet access in our room, wired or wireless.

Had to go to the lobby to get a wireless connection and then it was out
a couple of days.

They sure didn't put their money in internet access.

Subject: The future is here

I am in Korea on a gig and is staying at a hotel in New Songdo City.

 

When I plugged my laptop into the network cable at the work desk and
then checked my connection it showed me that I had a public IP and when
I did an ADSL speed test, it gave me 80 Mbps in and 15 Mbps out. Now
that will give me a very nice VPN back to HQ.

 

The only drawback is that the power outlet at the desk is controlled by
the key card holder at the door. I enter the room, put my key card in
the holder and I have power. I tried leaving a card board dummy there,
but the room maid removes it when they service the room. Solution: There
is a "hot" power outlet behind the minibar refrigerator. Get an
extension cord and you can leave your notebook and router on while you
leave your room.

 

This is definitely the hotel of the future. I have never seen these
speeds at hotels in the US. What is your experience?
