Default WiFi and Cellular Internet on Boats

Our marina on Carlyle Lake, IL (Boulder) doesn't seem to have wireless
access. Cell coverage is, at best, weak with Cingulator. But some
services have better covewrage there.

I don't think there is much demand as most are day sailors and not
liveaboard occupants.

It would be nice to have better cell phone coverage and wireless access so
that telecommunting would be easier. Would be a big benefit to be able to
access email while out sailing.


* Wow, that's a big lake. So do you think putting up an outside antenna and
an amplifier on the WiFi or Cellular would make any difference?
