BLAMBKY Posted March 2, 2017 #1 Share Posted March 2, 2017 My DH checks his business email on vacation, so we get the Internet package. Does it work on oceanview cabin balconies or only in the cabin? (Specifically asking for Oasis) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(Specifically asking for Oasis) Depends on the location. I've found that coverage on some balconies is not as good as inside the stateroom, and other balconies have no problem.

Clarea Posted March 2, 2017 #4 Share Posted March 2, 2017 I seem to remember that you like deck 8. How are those balconies? I don't think you can generalize about performance on the balconies by deck. It all depends how close the device is to an access point, and how much metal is in between. In other words, one balcony on deck 8 might be fine and another might be bad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare papa B me Posted March 2, 2017 #5 Share Posted March 2, 2017 I'm currently on the Oasis and the wifi on the balcony has been good the whole time. We are in the Western Caribbean On deck 14 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Then again...we've read that you can get a stronger signal in your cabin with special receiving equipment... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guess I need to pack a little bit of foil, along with my duct tape! ;) Crossing my fingers hoping he can check email while enjoying coffee in the mornings. Thanks for the feedback!

The WIFI should be very good in most locations...even without the added foil accessories... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HighlandBoy Posted March 2, 2017 #9 Share Posted March 2, 2017 Had no issues at all with WiFi on our JS balcony on Anthem last year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nelblu Posted March 2, 2017 #10 Share Posted March 2, 2017 My DH checks his business email on vacation, so we get the Internet package. Does it work on oceanview cabin balconies or only in the cabin? (Specifically-asking for Oasis) We've used our laptop on both Oasis & Allure while sitting in a CP balcony without any problems. I've used it for both e-mails, looking at personal financial info., & listening to my favorite sports radio "WFAN in New York." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
