How safe will the internet connection at the westin diplomat be?

i highly doubt it, last year it was just a straight ope network with a firewall on the line.

THere was a funny packet sniffing program we found in Vegas 4 years ago.

most hotels have no idea what they are doing when setting up thier systems. i wouldn't trust it.

seems to me this is a question that should be directed to the westin..why would anyone here know what precautions they may or may not have in place?

If they are like most hotels you will be lucky to have a decent connection anyway

just setup a vpn or use putty to tunnel your connections in a socks4 proxy if you're worried about that.

I guess the big question would be....does westin supply tin foil hats or should you supply your own?

Who/what sends plain text passwords on login? AIM/ICQ and any half-decent website sure doesn't.
