cruisinelmo Posted July 11, 2021 #1 Share Posted July 11, 2021 We booked a suite on the Harmony of the Seas which has WiFi included. My question is when you are on the balcony with the door shut how good is the WiFi reception on my devices ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cruisinelmo Posted July 11, 2021 Author #3 Share Posted July 11, 2021 We are on deck 10 midship, my thought was to play Pandora from my smart phone while on the balcony. OK for a "plan B" leave the smartphone in the room tuned to Pandora and transmit to a portable Bluetooth speaker on the patio. I think the signal will not go through the sliding patio door so maybe keeping it open. Your thoughts ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BTW, others may not share you taste in music or may prefer silence altogether. Edited July 11, 2021 by Biker19 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cruisinelmo Posted July 11, 2021 Author #5 Share Posted July 11, 2021 Now I'm worried that we won't be able to facetime family members while at sea while still in our room. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't worry you can always send them a post card .... they might receive it a week later after you get back. Plan "c" download your music to your smart phone and use some noise cancelling headphones on the balcony. 😇 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yep, always amazed that people think everyone is keen to be serenaded by their choice of music 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On most ships the signal is fine in the cabin, but gets progressively weaker as you go further away from the hallway (the location of the wifi access point).
