Wireless Reception
How's the cellular reception in the loops, specifically for VZW? I've got a wireless internet connection through them, and I wonder how good it's going to be. It all depends on how good the cellular reception is there.
We're planning to be there in mid-August this year.

When we stay at FW, we have no problems with cellular reception. I have Nextel (Sprint) and my son had Cingular ( AT&T) and had no problems at all. Hope this helps. Have a super time !!

This is cool. I forget what those puzzles are called but when I first looked at it I said to myself, "Huh?" But then I took a closer look and it says "thanks" in "ADVANCE"! A clever one, you are!

No problems here either, though my phone always seems to get turned off and left in the truck

disneys free wifi picks up very good at the outpost, the meadows ,and the settlement,and at some sites.Even if it doesn't pick up at your site its only a short trip to one of the above locations.

Many thanks to all ... would that I could leave my cell phone in my truck, but my work is such that I need to be in touch at least some part of the day, even on vacation. It's OK ... usually no more than five minutes a day.
My wireless card gets between 125 kbps and 1.5 mbps, depending on the reception, both of which are adequate for most emails I'd need to review, and to let DW and DD have access to their friends and other contacts as well.
Looks like no problem!
Thanks once again!
