^Won't that high elevation be too cold right now?

^^ I'm using Verizon. Thanks for the coverage map suggestion. I looked at it and was astonished to see all the areas without coverage. But there supposedly is 3G coverage in many of the places where my phone was showing no coverage or 1x. Could it be that my phone has poor reception components...

I am getting so frustrated trying to find a dispersed camping site with 4G and three bars. I drove around all day in the Pike and San Isabel National Forest SW of Pueblo and for the most part had no signal at all. When there was a signal it was only 1x and one bar until finally I found 4G and...

The refurbished Wilson Sleek is not in stock. Is the new version the Weboost Drive 4G-S ?

I'm going to be driving out of Kansas tomorrow. I'm looking for an area of Colorado that will currently have moderate temperatures (around 50 at night and 75 in the day), camping sites not too remote or rough (I'm in a Prius and still being a novice, don't want to stray too far from a town of at...

I proceeded on my tour of the downtowns and college campuses in the foothills of the southern Appalachians, making my way through SW Virginia and SE West Virginia. Abingdon, VA remains my favorite town. Hollins University in Roanoke, Virginia was my favorite campus. My reason for liking these...

^I may go all the way into Canada by mid-summer.  I hurried north to escape the heat of Florida, but the other day in western TN, the high was 60, so I need to slow down because its starting to get too cold, haha. I'm just afraid that I will get bored if I don't keep moving.

The end of the second week in my Prius. Going great so far. I have solved the hygiene and bodily functions issues. I have curtains enclosing the back seat and part of the cargo area for privacy. I have shed my final suitcase. I'm using the Prius's large storage area under the floor of the cargo...

When I buy a new, small laptop I will use a repeater. Thanks Hepcat! In the meantime, I am finding that Lowes Home Improvement has great wifi. I have been to four of them and I get four bars several spaces out in the parking lot and three bars at the edge of the lot.

I'm travelling and expect to continue travelling for a while, so I'm using different public wifi every day. I wouldn't want to use my laptop every time.

Here's my buddy Pippin all strapped in for the road. Sorry he's upside down. Something must be wrong with how my PC is interfacing with CRVL.

I have a old laptop with an ethernet port that I don't use because it's too clunky for the car but I could use it to configure the repeater. Once it's configured I won't need the laptop unless something goes wrong at some point - correct?

I am using a Surface 2, which has the Windows 8.1RT operating system. So anything that needs a driver probably won't work with it. It has a full sized USB port but doesn't provide much power to it. I love the Surface but may have to shell out $300 to buy a Surface 3 which has a regular Windows...

^Bob, I'd like to meet you too but I will be further north by then. My plan is to gradually head north as the weather gets hotter. I was born and raised in northwestern NC. If you are up that way I can recommend some places to eat and sightsee.

I was under the impression that it gets into the 90's in the Dakotas.
