Try calling these folks - on the phone - pick up on that sharing Aloha
Spirit that email lacks:
http://www.hawaiilink.net/wireless.htm

Their website says that they run a fixed wireless company in Kauai.  They
should know about wireless hotspots, and other goings on on that island.
They embrace travellers with a guest dialup account ($10 for 2 weeks),
perhaps they have the same option for Wi-Fi.

Plus, you will be very surprised by the growth of home-grown wifi sharing
(like I was in my trip to Maui).  Netstumbling the area around your
timeshare may prove to be the best plan for connecting.  When I was in
Wailea, I found hotspots with addresses and unit numbers - these folks were
inviting me to come over and say hi.

Whatever you end up finding, let us know how it goes when you get back!

Aloha,
-Mike

Subject: [SOCALWUG] WiFi in Kauai?

I know many Southern Californians vacation (and sometimes work) in
Hawaii, but speaking specifically of Kauai, North Shore, what's the
WiFi availability and saturation?

My family has a timeshare in Princeville, and I'm going over Mid-March
for a couple weeks.  The last time I was there (4 years ago maybe), I
used my dial-up provider which was not only slow, but cost me extra on
top of my monthly fee.  This time, I'd like to find some wireless
internet access, either near our condo, or available from within the
condo.

Does anyone know any resources for finding hotspots prior to arriving
and breaking out NetStumbler?  I've googled, but my results didn't
really pan out.

TIA-
-Dan
