List Of RV Parks With Awesome Wi-Fi?
Could we start a list so the few of us that need occasional awesome wi-fi can aid in our vacation bookings? Some of my get aways are trying to combine beauty with duty: Thanks, WoodGlue

The biggest problem with such a list is that it would change day to day.
Most RV parks now provide WiFi and most are now setting up antennas to bring the signal to all parts of the parks.
Most people are now using more and more bandwidth for video streaming (Netflix) etc.
Combine the two and you have a problem. Even if the Park uses Cable Internet, they are probably only bringing in 10Mbs in most cases. Consider that 6 people streaming video will fully utilize that bandwidth.
I have come across only 2 parks that had 'clever' routers that would block all Peer to Peer downloads and restrict access speeds after the first 50MB had been downloaded. The technology to do this has been around for some time and the Parks are slowly beginning to wake up to the fact that they need to limit the bandwidth to individual users.
I believe that within 5 years, the cell companies are going to offer unlimited bandwidth packages anyway - Sprint and T-Mobile already do and I am sure the others will follow.
