Wifi access on the water continues to improve very rapidly. Amost all major marinas and harbors, even in the Bahamas, have some sort of wifi service, some free, some not. Glenn Ashmore also reports good wifi availability in the BVI and USVI. One odd problem they have is they can't get two computers to share one feed. They ended up getting a second antenna. It can be done, either with a router, or Windows Internet Connection Sharing (ICS). It may take some minor networking proficiency. There are sometimes IP conflicts between the wifi client and the router if they both use the same defaults. It's usually easy enough to change the settings once you recognize the problem. |
