| 390234 | 2005-09-22 23:54:00 | Hi, In late October I will be going down to the Royal New Zealand Police College to commence the recruit training course. I'd like to have the ability to use the internet whilst there to (amongst other things) clear my own pop e-mail on my laptop and have access to the internet - the college connection is heavily firewalled and the only other option is a kiosk or going to an internet cafe. Now the way I see it I have three options 1) A Data Plan of Some Nature on my 027 cellphone? 2) Use of a dial-up account through my cellphone 3) Woosh/Wireless (don't know if there is coverage though) Anybody got any ideas/comments? |

| 390238 | 2005-09-23 02:25:00 | It seem's a little surprising that they don't have internet access for the recruits, maybe they have wifi network for the recruits, I have noticed plenty of hotspots in the porirua area where you can get free access,there is a open access point at the bottom of kenapuru drive, | plod (107) | ||
