A few of my friends are down in Las Vegas (about 4mi West of the Strip near Spring Valley) working on a project and they have pretty crappy net speeds at the house they're staying. I told them I'd look to see if I could find a decent Internet Cafe / place for gamers / something along those lines that had good uplink but can't find much after a while of searching. Anyone from LV have any ideas? They've got about 2gb worth of files that they're looking to upload, hopefully in a relatively short period of time, over FTP/Yousendit.

Much appreciated if anyone has any thoughts/advice -- if you play poker I'll make it worth your while for the advice :)

thanks,
Rob

Fast response, thanks -- I'll see if they can find connections to a UNLV student, I'm sure they could somehow.

Public Library I wonder about -- in Seattle the speeds @ the libraries are decent enough for browsing but pretty slow in general for upstream.

Im used the public library at Flamingo and Maryland(just East of Maryland) and the speeds are not very fast.

I work at UNLV and unless you can find yourself someone with a UNLV ID or an account unlikely you'll be able to do much at the library or union. The speed we have here is crazy fast though 2GB would take maybe 15-20 mins :p
