Hello,

My question is: Do you *have* to use a laptop to take advantage
of the high speed (broadband) dataports found in hotels? I will be
staying in Long Beach at a hotel that offers dataports (I assume from
the side of the phones) and I don't own a laptop, but I do own a
desktop PC. Can I just bring my DSL cable and run it from my ethernet
card to the dataport?

Is your DSL cable a crossover cable? This may or may not be the proper
cable.
