Sorry to sound stupid but am a bit of a computer phoebic.
We are going to the USA and they have free internet connection at our villa. Will our laptop work?
Any help or advice most appreciated.
Thanks!

if your laptop is wireless enabled then yes

The charger will work too, just take a travel adapter and plug it in
How do you mean free internet? Is this a secure or unsecure network? I would avoid using a unsecure network if you plan to shop or bank online. Thats how the poor TKMaxx customers got defrauded, by unsecure networks.
Those TJ Maxx customers had been shopping in store, not online.

However, the advice is good re not using unsecure wireless networks for sensitive transactions.

Is the internet in the villa wireless or not? If not, don't forget to take the ethernet cable.

Thank you all for your answers and will heed the security advice and not use for any secure transactions. The villa shows that there is internet access, broadband access, wireless broadband.

Will they supply me with a code or something to be able to get access to my emails etc?

sorry to be so vague, but last time we went there was a computer available too but need to take our laptop this time.

Thank you again for your time, advice and answers.
