   Actually, I didn't find that to be the case.  Both parks we stayed at   
   had wi-fi that was good.  I believe most places are being forced to   
   start upgrading their service.  At this place, hooking up to the wi-fi   
   network was easy and good.  The problem is their internet provider.  For   
   that you have to log on a certain web page for some reason, just like   
   you do at hotels.  The second place had the little poles just like the   
   first with the radio hardware on them at various points in the park and   
   hooking up there was also good.  The difference was that they provided   
   the internet service access themselves and didn't make you jump through   
   hoops proving you were actually a customer there.  If you know the   
   password and join the network, you have internet and can do whatever you   
   want.  I'm not sure why places like hotels and the first site do it this   
   way, but my best guess is that this is how they control access a little   
   more and keep people from stealing bandwidth.
