OK--Let me ask everyone about this. Which of the following options would you prefer in the Crown Room Club?
Free wireless internet access with no technical support - Wireless internet access that would have no connection fee, but would have no technical support in case of connectivity issues. The connection would be available within the Crown Club only.
OR
Fee-based wireless internet access with technical support - Wireless internet access that would have a connection fee, but would have technical support available in case of connectivity issues. The connection would be available at venues outside the Crown Room Club, or even outside of the airport.

The pay wireless with tech support is what you offer today, through T-Mobile.

Free internet access for sure! I've been to a few CO Prez clubs and have yet to see anyone getting stuck while trying to access the web/e-mail etc.
Oh and yeah, it'd be great if you could use a encryption network somehow. It sucks trying to see people squatting on the floor just outside a club and catching the damn signal.

No doubt about it: Free internet.
If the Las Vegas airport can do it, surely the Crown Rooms can.

Free Wireless, with the option of a pay per call tech support. I wouldn't need it, but it would be nice for those who are less tech savvy to have the option to call someone for assistance.

Free is good. But it needs to work, i.e. there needs to be support to fix the wifi if the network is down :P

Free wireless. If it works, there is no need for tech support.
Beware of people outside the CRC using it. Would be best if it required a SSID or PW. NW WC does this.

Free is nice, of course, but I'd be willing to spring a few bucks for a network that works reliably. And, unlike the terminal network in ATL, one that doesn't play funny games with IP address mapping that prevents it from working with corporate network gateways.

Free wireless.
As it is, I go to the NW WCs with the CRC membership just for the free wi-fi internet.
I'm unlikely to ever deal with outside tech support, and certainly not in relation to merely getting connected to the internet.
