squarepants Posted February 9, 2005 #1 Share Posted February 9, 2005 Traveling on the Jewel. What is the charge for the 8 day hook up and what speed are you connected at? Do you use the telephone or network cable? Square Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alexkrn46 Posted February 9, 2005 #2 Share Posted February 9, 2005 All the radiance class ships, you can get a special cord to connect, it is through the windows dial up network and it is slow about 28-40K. There is a limited number of connections. Alex Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rtrtx2 Posted February 10, 2005 #3 Share Posted February 10, 2005 I do not consider myself very computer literate, so with that in mind..... I do have a laptop, if I wish to purchase the in room internet hook-up, is there anything special I'd need to know how to do "other than just where to plug the phone modem".? Once connected, are you basically connected through their provider? Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kbtb Posted February 10, 2005 #4 Share Posted February 10, 2005 You are given a telephone, a power cord for the phone ( which you MUST plug in) and a phone cord. They also give you a number to put in to dial up (ours was 60 on the MOS). It was very easy. We really used it alot. It cost $100 for the week and we have a MAC Powerbook with Panther. It was really very easy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rtrtx2 Posted February 10, 2005 #5 Share Posted February 10, 2005 sounds like even I can handle that! Now what ships have this available? We are cruising on the Vision in two weeks. In October we will be aboard the Splendor. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Croozin Soozin Posted February 10, 2005 #6 Share Posted February 10, 2005 I believe it's only available on the Radiance and Voyager class of ships. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was really very easy. As the OP was asking about the Jewel I´d like to add that it´s different on the Jewel (and i think on all Radiance class ships). On the Jewel you are given just a short cord which has two plugs. One of them you plug into the wall and the other one plugs into your modem (Note you need a modem it´s not a network / Ethernet connection). The you have to set up a new dial up connection. If they didn´t changed it recently Vision and Splendour won´t have in-room internet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
