If you go to the verizon store you can get a PC card or a usb modem to hook up to your laptop or desktop to connect to the internet. It will automatically connect to what they call "national access" or the much faster service called "Rev Do-A". You can try this out for 15 days at your lake house to see if it connects to the faster service. If it doesn't connect to the faster service then return it with in 15 days, get your money back and just go with dial up.

I am just off 63 and just north of the Kowaliga bridge and I can connect to the faster "Rev Do-A" intermitently. I hope to get an antenna that will help the connection.

The "Rev Do-A is really fast....the "national access" is similiar to dial up...maybe a little faster but not worth the money.

But give it a try for 15 days.

The USB modem was about 160...but now I think there is a 50$ rebate....the service is then about 60 a month. So you really want to make sure you can connect to the "Rev Do-A"
