Online Drafts and Hotel WiFi

Post by Fourslot40 » Thu Mar 05, 2015 7:49 am

I'm sure that many in this forum have drafted in main events online from the confines of a hotel room. How fluid is the online experience for drafts performed on hotel WiFi? Has anyone noticed if the experience is better if you apply for the faster speed? I appreciate any feedback. Thank you. :D

Always go faster speed. Other than that, depends on the hotel. In Vegas, my experiences have been pretty positive. In NYC, the connections from the rooms usually suck.

John:

Echo the same experiences as my good pal Glenneration X. Your at the mercy of the hotel, I've done
Several in Vegas w/out problems. Same can be said for Florida. One tip I can offer is to go to Hotels.com
Or similar and simply read the reviews about the hotel - if you get more than one complaint about the Wi-Fi
Mentioned in the write up I'd be real hesitant in trusting that hotel for a draft you are plunking down some
Of that hard earned Myrtle Beach cash! Neither Hilton's or Marriott's have let me down. Good luck pal.

Thanks Glenn and Ken, these tips are helpful. I typically stay at Hilton hotels during work stays, so I'm glad to hear of good experiences there. I greatly appreciate the feedback.
