As long as the property you are renting meets the following criteria, we can provide the internet access you need in any location on the northern beaches (from the 4WD Ramp in Corolla to South Nags Head)
1) It MUST have cable television from the local cable company, NOT SATELLITE
2) It MUST be north of the Oregon Inlet Bridge (South Nags Head to Corolla Area)
3) It MUST be a stand-alone property (NO Condos or other multi-dwellings)
4) The cable signal MUST be strong enough to support High Speed Internet
As long as it meets these requirements, we can make it happen for you! Here's how it works: We charge a non-refundable $15.00 fee when you place your order. We then drive out to your rental cottage on the day of your arrival and test the incoming signal from the cable company. If the cable signal quality is sufficient, we install your networking devices, providing wired and wireless capabilities during your stay. If you need help connecting to or using the service, we provide local phone support and next-day, on-site service to assist you. At the end of your week, you simply leave the devices in the cottage and our technicians will pick them up from the property after you leave. If we test your property and find that the cable signal or house wiring is not sufficient to support the service, we do not install the device and you are not charged the $99.99. Check out our QuikNET™ Frequently Asked Questions for more information.
Q: How do I connect to your secure wireless access point?
A: Our device will be installed in the cottage near one of the TVs,
and it will have a sticker on the side of the box. That sticker will
have the name of the wireless network (beginning with the word
"RenterNET"), the network access key, the local phone number for
support, and an outgoing email server if you need it. It also has a
description of the security we use. Simply use your wireless utility
to scan for available networks, pick our network, enter the key, and
you're off and running online.
Q: How many computers/devices can use this service simultaneously?
A: While there is no set limit, a wireless router can usually
support up to 15 devices simultaneously.
Q: How secure is the security on your networking devices?
A: We use basic security techniques to keep out unwanted freeloaders
and eavesdroppers while maintaining the widest possible level of
compatibility with older and newer computing devices. While the
security we use is better than unsecured alternatives, it is NOT
100% bulletproof. It is designed to keep out the riff-raff, but
users should NEVER assume that ANY wireless security method is 100%
hacker-proof.
Q: Are you a division of the local Cable Company?
A: No. We pay for access to their data network, but we are not
affiliated with them in any way.
Q: If the local Cable Company has a system problem or outage
during my stay, can I get my money back?
A: No. We charge you for testing, delivery, and pickup of devices.
Since we have no control over their service, we cannot warranty it
in any way. System outages are rare, but it is possible for their
service to be interrupted during your stay. Think of our product
like renting a surfboard from a surf shop...if the waves don't come
in every day of your stay, the surf shop can't refund you because
you didn't get to use the board every day. We still have to test,
deliver, and pickup the device whether the local Cable Company keeps
it on for the entire stay or not.
Q: Will joining your wireless network cause my laptop to no longer
work back at my home or office?
A: No. Your laptop will create and save a unique profile for our
network that will not interfere with other wireless networks you
regularly use. Once created, this profile will be used each time you
boot the computer, preventing the need to enter the key more than
once during your stay.
Q: I see you provide an outgoing email server. Why would I need
that?
A: If you use web-based email (i.e. you go to a website, log in, and
check your email), then you will not need it. If you use a local
email client such as Outlook, Pegasus, Eudora, etc. you might need
it. The local Cable Company will not allow unauthenticated email to
flow on their network. As long as your email provider allows you to
send a login and password to their server when you send mail out,
you will not need to change anything. If your email provider does
not allow authentication on sent mail, then you will need to use the
local Cable Company's server during your stay. So how can you tell?
Connect to our network and try to send an email from yourself to
yourself. If you get an error message, you need to change your
outgoing server. If the mail comes back after a few minutes, no
changes are needed. Our support center can help you change it if you
do not know how to do so.
