Hi,
Does anyone here know if there is Wi-Fi at Disneyworld, or even better, is there Wi-Fi at the caribbean beach resort?.

Thanks

Jon

No to the Wi-Fi at the parks or the resorts. There is high-speed available in the hotels for something like $10/day. I believe one of the resorts does have wi-fi, I just don't remember which one (the one that has the convention centre).

hmm interesting. Thanks

I guess there is 3G though?, and maybe I could connect up with 02 UK.

I'm really not sure?

All of the convention resorts have some sort of Wi-Fi area at $10 an hour or $25 a day.

This includes Contemp, Y&B, and Coronado.

Disney has an exclusive contract with Verison offering full 3G coverage in all their theme parks. So as long as you have a 3G cell phone you should get coverage.

We had a thread last week discussing the Wi-Fi in the resorts and why it is not offered:

I heard there WAS WI FI in the park but it was $10 cause you can get the Ride wait time app.

You will find pockets of Wi-Fi in the parks but all of them are locked down. The ride wait time app is done through 3G.

Most phones are not compatible with Verizon's type of 3G (Only Verizon and Sprint in the US, and basically nothing from overseas except China.)

AT&T and T-Mobile's 3G standard (GSM) is the one used worldwide.

AT&T and T-Mobile both have coverage there too but its not guaranteed to be 100% all over the parks. So you may hit some dead zones in resorts or in the parks, but overall you should be fine.

Mm, I feel this pain. If you're Canadian and with Bell-Aliant you're in for a rough go.. mostly at MK, and I can vouch that it's not great in the rooms at Pop.

Never said they didn't. Was just correcting your previous erroneous statement.
