    Boeing Internet Access

    Have any of you used the Boeing internet access during an international flight. We are looking into what is needed to make this happen. Continental says we need a hypertronics connector and that it can be found at any Computer store. Everyone we called has no idea what we are talking about. Does anyone know what it is? Also do you know if it just a standard cigarette lighter is all that is needed?

        LOL, NJ to Hong Kong is way longer than a few hours. More like 20-24 hours.

          The hypertronics connector can not be found in a computer store.

          What you are looking for is the NC power adapter. And this should be available at any airport. hypertronics discontinued making the adapters due to the low cost of 3rd party knock offs. However the power supplies on contential are made by hypertronics.

            continental does not have onboard internet, you can however use their phone line (at 4 bux/min), with a power adapter and dial in...

            dude its a 15 hour flight tops, just relax in your first class seat, have some moet, enjoy the inflight entertainment and hope the CSA trips so u see up her skirt.

            Have a great flight!
