Using iweb/MacBook and connecting wirelessly to internet in remote China

Ok this is a long shot.......
I need to be able to update my website www.greatwalltrek.info whilst in remote areas of China using a MacBook whilst I'm fundraising for charity. I have been told that with a CDMA card I will get access from most places that I will be travelling. I realise that this will likely be a slow connection but would it be sufficient to at least update text sections of the webpage (i.e. diary notes)??
I haven't been able to work out who the best providers of CDMA in China are. Anyone with some local/technical knowledge that can help? Also, will a CDMA card work in a MacBook??
I know that I can use a satellite modem but the cost is approximately $7 per MB and 256K streaming is $20 per minute.
Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

slow connection but would it be sufficient to at

notes)??
Even if you somehow decide this might be feasible (I would not think it so myself), I strongly recommend you have a non-iWeb Plan B that involves minimal bandwidth and time requirements.

You might want to ask this in some more general forum that relates to connecting, like

  • Macbook and slow wireless connection

    I have trouble reaching high speed when connecting with AirPort to my BT Voyager 2110 router. Connecting with a cable works great.
    It seems to be a problem many people have that their wireless connection between the Mac and a router gives only a fraction of the transfer speed compared to when when using a PC and connecting wireless to the very same router. Is Mac more sensitive and have compatibility problems?

    I solved the problem I described above. I changed the channel on the router to 11. Tech support told me that Macbook prefers 11, then 2 and then 6. I tried number 2 yesterday and it was still bad. However, channel 11 solved my problems. Now the wireless is fast as with cable.

  • Use my macbook to connect my pc to the internet

    I have a pc with no internet connection close by and I want to use my macbook to connect.  Please explain how I can do this.

    Ok.
    I am connected to wi-fi through TC connected to a specific router and is working perfectly and saving data through TM without any issues.
    The TC version is 7.6.1 and am using OS 10.7.3
    The router mode is on Bridge mode and router is connected to TC through USB cable, I suppose for internet access. My Mac is on wi-fi through TC
    I have another location, much further, which recently have been installed with wi-fi through router that has WPA accessibiulity with password, 100% different than the current one.
    Since, I will be most of my time in this new location, I wish to move my TC to this new location, and configure it in similar fashion like what I am having right now.
    Naturally, I do not wish to lose any saved data on the TC.
    Hope I managed to provide enought info.
    Thanks in advance

    My macbook pro was recently returned to me after having been lost. When I turned it on and connected to the internet at home, the activation lock activated. I put my password in and the macbook went to a white apple screen and now won't do anything else. How do I get it running again?

  • Can I use my Macbook as a wireless access point?

    I have an odd question.
    I was wondering if it is possible to use my MacBook as a wireless access point. I am traveling to my parents house for Christmas with my Nintendo Wii, and they do not have wireless internet. Here is what I would like to do:
    Attach my MacBook to my parents wired internet hub.
    Create a wireless network with my MacBook.
    Connect to that wireless network on my Wii.
    I know this is an odd question, but it seems fairly feasbible in my head, I'm just not sure how to go about doing it.
    Any help would be GREATLY appreciated. Thanks!

    Actually, it's quite simple... like Robert said, go to System Preferences > Sharing > Internet and choose to share your connection from built in ethernet with computers using AirPort. Click on Airport options and then specify the wireless "network" name you wish to use and whether or not you want security. If you are only playing games with the Wii, I would suggest not enabling security... It would only make things more difficult... plus when sharing the connection like this, you only have the option of using WEP which isn't really that secure anyway in the right hands. Also, when you specify a network name, choose one with no spaces; this will also make things easier for your Wii to connect. That should do it! Good luck!!
    Hope this was a help!

    Hi Jam.Hall
    I am somewhat hesitant to say you will be able to use this camera with LabVIEW.  It all depends on what functionality you are wanting to utilise on the camera, and how much video you want to analyze.
     - If you want to use the wireless functionality, I am concered that the on board web server will compress and embed the video stream.  I do not beleive this is something we can access in LabVIEW.
     - If you wish to use the ethernet connection, if it is Gigabit Ethernet, then you should be able to use our IMAQ for GigE driver to bring in the feed, but looking at the specs for the camera, I'm not sure that this is an option.
     - My other suggestion might be to utilise the record video stream function that the camera has.  Depending on the format of the video file, you may be able to read in the recorded file and analyse it in LabVIEW.
    If you could explain the purpose of your application, and what you would like to achieve with the system, there may be more suitable products that you can use.

  • E71 Using Nokia Suite to connect to the internet

    This may be a Nokia Suite problem but the first time I add my E71, via Bluetooth, to Nokia Suite I can use the phone to connect to the internet successfully.
    After I shut my PC down and reboot the connection will not work, Nokia Suite tells be that it "Cannot establish a network connection".
    The cure is that every time I wish to use I have to remove the phone from Nokia Suite then add it in again.
    This is a laborious process and should be totally unnecessary.
    I'm using Windows 7, the laciest version of Nokia Suite, have the latest software on my E71 & all the latest drivers, Bluetooth etc, installed. 
    In functional terms it seems after that initial use something is not getting 'released' or 'reset' properly.
    Nokia please help me why your software is not working.

  • "Unable to Reach Servers" and "Connect to the Internet" Error Messages

    Hi.
    So, I purchased Adobe Audition at $19.99 per month for a year.
    It hasn't worked yet. 
    I've tried all the online forum advice - drop firewall, check hosts file, check some certificate, remove/reinstall Audition ...nothing has worked.  I still get messages saying "Unable to Reach Servers" and "Connect to the Internet."  I'm ALWAYS connected to the Internet.
    I use Windows 7 Home Premium SP1, 64-Bit operating system.
    This needs to be fixed, or I want my money back.
    Someone please help.  I'm already 2 days with no access to something I've paid for.  I don't like this.
    -Karen

    Karen did you have any questions regarding the steps listed in Sign in, activation, or connection errors | CC, CS6, CS5.5 - http://helpx.adobe.com/x-productkb/policy-pricing/activation-network-issues.html.  If your membership is valid then there must be a connection error between the computer and our activation server.
    Are you on a managed network?  Do you utilize a hardware firewall or proxy server?

    Reset iPod touch:  Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Power off and then back on your router

  • Using on WiFi to connect to the internet.

    Can I use only WiFi to connect to the internet, like web surfing and downloading?
    I'm not in the US so I don't want to use the service provider's EDGE, because it is too expensive.

    If you don't have a BlackBerry Data Plan, you will not have access to any of the BlackBerry data features and applications.
    Some third party applications (like Pandora radio or BerryWeather) will connect via WiFi.
    The Opera Mini browser will work, and can use GPRS settings, if you set the TCP connection for your current service provider.

  • Using START WITH and CONNECT BY PRIOR in a report

    Hi - I am using Oracle 9i and reports 10g. Does anyone know of a reason why running my sql in TOAD will produce the correct results, but the report is dropping records? I am using start with and connect by prior to build a hierarchy of linked records. The report is dropping the "child records" and only returning records from the route level.

    Thanks for the quick response. What you have said makes sense but there is no rhyme or reason to he data used. I reset my cellular data counter to zero so both sent and received read zero. I was connected to wifi and let the phone to go into sleep mode. I waited about ten minutes and sent myself the same email four times, each with a 750 kb attachment. It was sent to my .me address so it was push mail on my phone. Sure enough I checked a minute later while bringing the phone out of sleep mode and checked the data. It showed just 10kb sent but 1mb received which just doesn't tally with the 4 x 750kb mails received. It just isn't making sense.
    He knows what you asked and has already answered it!
    I thought I had read where the iOS4 (or maybe just the iPhone 4) was supposed to be able to keep wifi connections alive while inactive. If the phone is sitting there on a charger with a wifi connection available, why use the 3G?
