We had that problem on one of our cruises for which I don't recall the ship. I have a friend who had a similar issue on X. His problem was solved by cracking the balcony slider open. It is really about where the wi-fi equipment is located and what is in between. I would suggest that you bring your device with you as you may want to use it ashore or in the ship's public spaces. We have been on the Royal multiple times and can attest that their wi-fi does work. It is highly unlikely that you will experience the problem in a different cabin. I do hope you reported the problem to the on board IT person. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JF - retired RRT Posted January 21, 2017 #3 Share Posted January 21, 2017 When you're walking down the halls look for the repeater. Close to a repeater...good signal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pam in CA Posted January 21, 2017 #4 Share Posted January 21, 2017 Princess cabin doors are metal and well-insulated. Try cracking the door open to get a signal. Also, if you're using an iPhone or iPad, use Chrome rather than Safari. Don't know why but I've found that Chrome stays connected to the WiFi better than Safari.
