“Over-the-Road Wireless For Dummies”
It was bound to happen eventually—a “Dummies” book for wireless service on the road. I haven’t personally seen a copy of this book, but ran across an ad for it in the RV Travel Online Newsletter this week. It sounds perfect for RVers who need to manage their investments or keep in touch with loved ones while on the road.
You’ll supposedly learn how to choose equipment for Internet access on the road, including how to choose a Wi-Fi service and locate hotspots as well as the many other services available while traveling. 364 pages. Go to this link to read a chapter from the book or order: http://rvbookstore.com/shop/detail.aspx?m=2&p=941.

Communicating on the Road
We just made another step forward in being able to communicate while on the road in the RV. We purchased a USB720 connection for our Verizon broadband access to the Internet. We already had broadband/nationwide access with a PCMCIA card, but the USB connection allows us to use it with either the laptop or the desktop computer—although not at the same time—and costs the same as the original access. What a giant leap from the modem connection through our cellphone just two short years ago. Talk about slow!
Access to the Internet is even faster than with the PCMCIA card, although we’re still only receiving Nationwide access where we’re parked right now. Still, it’s a little faster and is just one more step towards making it possible to communicate with the world via the Internet from almost any location.
