Premium/Higher Bandwidth Internet Access
Premium service comes with an increase in data speeds, technical support, and a public IP address. Premium services can be purchased from the portal or if you have a group of conference attendees that will all need premium service, passes can be purchased in increments of 1day, 1 week, and 1 month. The duration of access is contiguous; and is not based on the amount of time the device is connected to the network. Once the user logs in, their access will expire after the amount of time associated with the account elapses, regardless of the activity of the user. GTvisitor passes which have not been used to login do not expire.
If you selected the “Free” option and discover that you require increased speeds and wish to purchase a pass for Premium service, you can navigate your browser to http://4.5.6.7 to log out of your existing session.
Increased Speed Rates (for up to 10Mbits/s) for GTvisitor are as follows:
- $3/day
- $10/week
- $30/month
