Does anyone know if the wireless conection is the prefered way to conect to
internet, in the farm and ranch areas? The reason I ask is my kids gave me an
i-pod. It has a great map program that would be useful in locating hunting areas.:thumbsup:

Real men don't need maps or ask for help with directions! :cheers:

Joking but not sure about the Ipod thing!
 
If you are more than a few miles from any town it will be hard to find an internet connection. A decent GPS is the best way to go. Even smartphones with GPS/Maps have a hard time if you are far from towns.
 
Ipod

I took my Ipod last year.
I had a connection at the hotel and library, but that was it.

If you find a wireless connection in the country, it will probably be "locked"
 
the iPhone works pretty well out in the field. Hit or miss sometimes but can usaully find a connection within 5 or so miles in any direction. the map app works well showing the lay of the land and whats over the hill.
 
We have always been "wireless" at the ranch. My 94 year year old mother still reminds me to have plenty of kerosene at all times. "Yes, Mother."
