Wii fi on ship question

[Joan1]

I have used the internet system on the Magic and Wonder but I never tried this and not sure if it will work

Can you have two computers going on the same account at the same time if using wi fi out on deck? Say my DH and I both need to log in at the same time is it possible, on two separate computers? Or would we need to purchase separate minutes?

We usually share the laptop but if one of us is on the laptop and one is using one of DCL's computers would it be possible?

Each of you will need a separate account in order to log on at the same time.

Regardless of the number of computers, each account can only be accessed once; one would have to log off before the other could log on.

I don't feel that I'm explaining this well, so if it doesn't make sense let me know and I'll try again.

understood perfectly. We usually don't try this but we will be on the Med cruise and want to minimize the time we will be on a computer and thought if we could check at the same time it would go quicker instead of waiting around for the other to finish

Hopefully we can hit some free wifi spots in port somewhere for a quick check in. Don't plan on loggin on each day but every couple of days

Search for locations where you can get internet access on shore. 'free wifi naples' returned several locations in a Google search.

If I recall correctly, the Disney ships only have something like a 128 kbit link - and that is shared with everybody. So access can be painfully slow. After one attempt I would do my best to avoid connecting while at sea.
