Volks, Will be leaving soon for our trip and want to stay connected via laptop with the list. The big question I have is: where do you go to get a phone line connection to log in. I'm trying to avoid motels like the plague (thats why we buy the Westy isn't it?!) Are campgrounds willing to let you hook up to their phone lines? If you don't have AOL or some other 800 number access (I'll need to call back long distance with a calling card to access our server) how do you make it all work....especially with a credit card? My cell phone won't work for any modem hook-up. Have any of you ever used one for modem hookup? What brand? What coverage? What success/failure have you experienced? I never envisioned myself glued to a listserv group until I joined this one :-) Now I'm not sure I can stand the withdrawal symptoms! (g) TIA Jim in Iowa 91 Passat Wagon GL 89 Westy 66 Beetle |
