serialcruiser48 Posted July 10, 2017 #1 Share Posted July 10, 2017 World of Tanks for Xbox one finally works on the Liberty with the newly implemented O3b wifi service. Edge popped right asking to login in when I connected to "royal-wifi". It may take a few minutes to work, but it will eventually. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lots a cabin space for the 20" monitor, fold up table and Xbox. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thought it was time to post something about Xbox and cruising. I was worried about getting my monitor and Xbox through security. Brought them in my carry-on and no problems. The fold up table was in checked luggage. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
luv2sailAgain Posted July 25, 2017 #6 Share Posted July 25, 2017 Serialcruiser48, I thought that I would send a shout out and ask about your O3b experience on the remainder of your cruise. Did it continue to work well? Did you try YouTube or Netflix? TIA BTW: I told my son about you bringing your system on board. He thought that was a great idea and I could see the wheels turning in his head. I reminded him that there would be 3 of us in 177 square feet of space. Sorry, not this trip. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Milwaukee Eight Posted July 25, 2017 #7 Share Posted July 25, 2017 No problem since I'm single. Lots a cabin space for the 20" monitor, fold up table and Xbox. You sure you wouldn't rather watch Fox News instead? Royal is adding the channel on most ships. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sorry, not this trip. :) I was in a cabin on deck 3 and had poor connection. The drop out rate was 20%. I went around the ship testing the ping and forward on deck 5 was 0%, or no dropouts. They are still using the old distribution system, but was told will upgrade to Cisco and that will help. Dropout rate was typically 2% or very little degradation. What I would recommend is bring an iPad since he has to share space with others. Connecting the Xbox to the ships wifi worked great the first time I connected. But, subsequent logins were more difficult as it would be with most devices. The browser has to have auto redirect from the ships DNS in order for the login page to show up; make sure he/you are tech savvy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
serialcruiser48 Posted July 26, 2017 Author #9 Share Posted July 26, 2017 Forgot to mention. I have the Master Chief collection (Halo 1-4) downloaded on my Xbox. Make sure you set it up to work offline (local) before leaving home or a wifi connection will be required. Game disc's should be fine offline (no wifi required). If games trys to auto update, that's going to suck the bandwidth dry so turn updates off. Lastly, I have the Xbox S (40% smaller and NO power brick).
