I'll be in China for a year, and would like to have access to websites not easily accessible there such as NYT, Facebook, etc. Will this work?

Speaking as an I.T. professional of 33 years - a router is a router - they all have the same basic functionalities. If you plan on setting up a Virtual Private Network (VPN) to another similar VPN router you own outside of China, this can do that as well. That is the only work-around I can think of to circumvent China blocking these sites. Good luck!

That is a great question that I'm not sure that I can answer. What I do know is this: depending on the wifi adapter the ChromeBook uses, it may be compatible with the internet in China. The operating system may not be compatible with some Chinese applications, that is something you may have to talk to Google about. I would do research on the Wifi adapter the ChromeBook used just to make sure it's compatible, otherwise I don't see how there would be an issue.

I don't believe you can. but I bet if you try a international site for apple corp you might have a shot.

Yes. I have been using mine for years all over Europe. I advise carrying a map in case some new roads are not on it. You can find museums, entertainment, dining, etc. without downloading anything.

I used it in the USA not sure about China. I don't believed so, as I bring a converter when I go to china

Even if it works in China, I would assume the functions would be limited. The machine is more of a Google Chrome browser than a "laptop". One thing I know for sure is that YouTube is blocked in China. This thing is a pure joy to have, but probably not in China.

Be carefull from whom you buy. I had great troubles getting data to work to my satisfaction. Since my phone was sold from a chineese wendor, I suspect that it cointains some sort of software to censor the internet access.

Yes, you can go to your banks website with no problems at all. Very secure unless your bank is has a problem.

Yes, we can! If you can not choose the address of China on Amazon, please email us and let us know the right address. If possible, in English please.

Sorry! I'm just a grandma from Wisconsin, I have no idea if it will work in China.

Yes, sometimes you can. When it works you can use Google Chrome. But it will stop working unexpectedly.

I'm pretty sure apps are universal...if you can download it then you can use it. Just like you can access any URL across the globe.

I bought this laptop in August, 2013 for use in China, there is no any problem. That is great!

yes, but you need to change the warranty from U.S.A to China on the internet.

Yes - but only if you provide the proper internet infrastructure. These cameras are IP cameras. All IP cameras can be "hit" from anywhere in the world as long as they are IP visible. You need to place the cameras on "public" IP addresses. Private IP addresses are commonly used by support providers to group X number of their subscribers behind 1 public IP address. Assume your cameras are on some providers private network. When you initiate traffic to that 1 public IP address, where should it go? There are dozens, maybe hundreds of devices (computers, cameras, printers, etc) behind that public IP. There is no mechanism to send that traffic to your cameras. The private network functions properly ONLY when the traffic initiating a "conversation" starts on the private side. Only then is a map built that says private IP Y wants to see the web page at public IP Z, so when Z sends back the response to X, "NETWORK ADDRESS TRANSLATE" and route the traffic to Y. When a conversation is initiated outside the private network, there is no NAT map established to route the traffic. If you can put your cameras on a "public routable" IP adddress, it will work like a charm. If you put them on a private network, there's no chance. Needless to say, public IP addresses are registered and cost $$$. Public IP addresses are assigned to a specific location. There is no way to take a public IP address and move it across town, without getting your provider involved (read $$$). If your IP address starts with 10.x.x.x, or 192.168.x.x, then you're on a private network. This topic is not easily explained in brief.
