I assume you mean wireless internet connections. Generally, the distance capable is about 500 feet, so even if your hotels/motels have wireless, it's not going to help to connect you where a wire wouldn't work, except maybe around the hotel pool or patio. But a little more convenient than wire. Radio Shack has a credit card modem that would attach to a cell phone to allow a dial up connection for a laptop for around $100. That would give you access as long as the cell phone works. I could use up some of my night and weekend minutes with this!
