I quit the co-working place I was working out of and went to work in the public library instead. It was free and their wifi was more reliable.

Note to folks thinking of using their local library: Set up some sort of VPN or other proxy in advance.

My local library has assorted filtering in place. Last I checked, though, it was just port 80, so I was able to run a Web proxy on my remote server on another port in order to get past it.

(A VPN is a good idea for any use of public Wifi in an event.)
