Yellowstone internet anyone?
We are spending a week in Yellowstone this month, Canyon Village. My better half is taking online classes and we need internet access. I have searched the archives with no success (nothing recent) ...

I have a friend who is working at Canyon this summer and her hubby is here and he's doing his business via internet. He purchased a wi-fi booster @ Radio Shack (for around $300) and says it works wonders and he's able to download and do anything he likes. I think he has a Verizon Hot Spot. Walt has Verizon and I have AT&T - and although we're in the Northern Tier (we like photographing all the animals), and I notice that he usually has bars and I don't. We have a Verizon Hot Spot and here in Gardiner (just outside Mammoth) the signal isn't very hot. I'll wait till I get home and investigate the booster better, but I imagine that is what we'll do. My AT&T is great in Mammoth but lousy in the park.
You can change your iPhone into a hot spot however not sure what the Verizon parameters are (it's an addition $25/mo), I do know that AT&T is charging $25, AND if you are grandfathered in with their unlimited Data rate (I am), that goes poof for their tiered levels of data (if you use more, costs more or are throttled - which is geek language for slowed down or knocked off data access.)
BTW I run my business (upload and download major files) here in Gardiner and do okay - not great, but I can get it done, but it's very slo-o-o-o-o-ow!!!)
Good luck. Hope that helps.
