can't you just get wireless or something from another provider?

WiredGuy · 04-17-2007, 10:43 AM

What's stopping you from using Sprint's 1.5mbs network over the airwaves? If your cell phone works you should be able to use their service and its only $60/month or so, even if only works in the USA?

cant you get a 3g broadband through your mobile provider

GTS Mark · 04-17-2007, 10:53 AM

They block the internet signal, we tried it before at another show LOL!

They have some kind of "signal sniffer".

Save the demos, content to your hard drive, do without the Inet, save the money

rowan · 04-17-2007, 11:54 AM

Set up an access point and resell your overpriced internet to other booth owners

but there's no good parties afterwards..

WiredGuy · 04-17-2007, 12:45 PM

Are they blocking all wireless signals? Surely a cell phone works in the conference center and if that does, you should be able to find some sort of highspeed cell phone carrier that can connect to your laptop? Even signing a 1 year agreement with a US carrier will be cheaper than $1200!

tranza · 04-17-2007, 12:48 PM

We have done that in the past but a lot of potential clients want to show us their site and where they would like to send the traffic we deliver.

Trust me, I don't want to pay the $1200 I would rather keep it in my pocket. However how professional would you look if you were the only company out there without internet access at a fucking internext advertising convention ;)

wow, never thought I would see that

how is the convention center handling that? I always thought the casinos handled all the internet, did you all work some sort of deal?

Brujah · 04-17-2007, 01:34 PM

Like you said though.. it's a SMALL cost for the benefits it will bring. Pocket change right?

500x more than $1200 is a shit load of money! Don't complain, be happy!
