Please don't be so defensive! Maybe park owners are not aware of the advances in high speed broadband services over the past few years. We were paying $1,500 each for two T-1 lines, just a couple of years ago. Today we pay $400 for a fiber connection that offers the bandwidth of 4-5 T-1's. Technology is changing at a rapid pace.
Hopefully, you've read DocJ's post above. He hit the nail right on the head. As high speed bandwidth becomes commonplace and more affordable, people's expectations change. Especially so for families with kids (even though I share those expectations at 56!). I can tell you this..... When we bring the grand-kids with us to the campground, they are clawing at the windows by day two and ready to get back home.

How can it not be more expensive and yet when parks don't do it for whatever reason, it is because cheapskate owners don't want to spend money on their park?
The problem is the majority of RV parks are in rural areas where these options are just not available like they are in urban areas.If they are the cost is much greater than in the urban area . Also setting up a network in a building is far less expensive and problematic compared to setting up an outdoor system to cover a large area. I think the RV park owner is frustrated that these new breed of RVers is just not realistic in their expectations.
