Wireless Internet Access

[0124]

We will be camping next week south of Kimberling City. My dh is going to have to work from about 10pm-2am on Saturday night. Does anyone know of a good wireless connection in the area. He can't miss this time frame, so we really need to find one that is pretty dependable. We will pay for it if we need to. I was thinking the McDonalds in Branson West might. Does anyone have any ideas? He can drive into Branson if he needs to.

Books-A-Million has free internet, with a $20 membership card. You buy the membership card and it is good for a full year. You enter the number on the back of your card, as your password to sign-on to the internet.

On Saturday night, they close at 11:00pm. HOWEVER, there are tables and an electrical outlet on the patio, and you can get wireless on the patio. If for some reason they aren't allowing people to use the patio after closing, anymore (or if it's raining), you can access it from your car, in the parking spaces closest to the patio (Joe Muggs). Kind of cramped in the car, but it's internet!

There are other places with free internet, but I don't think you can use it until 2am. So, $20 for a year is not a bad internet price (for high speed), when you consider you can access it, anytime.

Oh, and it's located at Branson Hills (by the new Walmart Supercenter), between Petco and Best Buy. If I were him (since this is work and he has to be on it), I'd go buy the card and check it out, BEFORE Saturday night. However, they will still be open for an hour, if he goes at 10pm on Saturday night.

McDonald's at Branson West does have wi-fi but I'm not sure what time the store closes.
