Wi-fi

Hi.

Been looking at the wi-fi sticky and notice that the prices quoted are from last year.

Does anyone know if the prices are the same or have changed?. I am looking at getting this one.

10 hours of Wireless Broadband Internet connectivity to be used within 30 consecutive days from first log-in - EUR 15.00.

Also i am staying at the Sequoia. Can anyone comment on the signal in the main hotel. Can you get it in the rooms, or just say in the lobby...?

The hotels all use Orange wifi access and therefore their standard rates apply

Here is their tariff page.

The E15 package is still there. I usually go for th E19.90 for unlimited access, which is ok unless you want to use Skype or similar services.

Once you've bought your pass you can log into it on different devices. We use it on our laptop and phones. Just remember to write down your password so that you don't have to look it up everytime you get to a new hotspot.

How do you pay for it?

I'm an orange customer with free wifi, will this work or not? Feeling it won't but thought might ask!

I'm undecided if to add traveller package on so I use 3G or if to use the wifi! Is it all hotels?

Out of interest, can you connect to the Wi-Fi in the parks or only in the hotels?

From what i gather you can only connect in the hotels. Mc'donalds have wifi too, but i am not sure if everyone can connect through that or if it's just limited to o2 customers like it is here. I am sure for the rest of the park it's 3G.

I know that for instance Vodafone who i am with do a european roaming package of which you can get 25mb per day from midnight to midnight, can't be carried over for £2 which isn't bad, i used it in spain last year. They also send you a text when you are nearing the daily limit. It might be worth checking with your provider to see if they do any offers.

The easiest way to buy the wifi is to do it online when you get there. When you try to connect to the hotspot in the hotel your browser will direct you to the orange log on page. you can purchase time from there. I think it is cheaper this way than buying vouchers in the shops.

I don't know but I think it is unlikely that you would be able to use a UK wifi package there unless your deal specifically allows european usage.
