10. Wireless at the Javits Center
Wireless access is currently available throughout the Javits Convention Center. As there will be 25,000 people in the building for DKC, TLP and Toy Fair it is not practical to offer wireless to attendees. The Javits center is simply not that well equipped.
Individuals my purchase their own wireless access from Javits. Some areas of Javits also have free wifi (namely the food court). Details will be available through your wireless device’s internet settings onsite at the Javits Center.
