Warning for laptop users onboard

[can786]

Perhaps we were just blind, but I wanted to warn anyone who uses a laptop to connect to the ship's wireless network to access the internet to pay attention to the login screen, especially the lower right hand corner where it says in rather small print to be sure to enter http://1.1.1.1 to logout. Once you get past the login page it does not tell you this again, and if you do not do it the minutes will keep ticking off, even if you turn off the wireless network on your laptop. We burned through three 250 minute packages before we noticed this... thank heavens we were in a suite with unlimited internet access. My only disclaimer to this is that it may stop ticking off the minutes if you actually turn your laptop off, but since we could get the wireless connection from our suite my DH decided to simply plug the laptop in and keep it on the entire cruise.

Thanks for the warning. This is a real drawback to using your own laptop vs the internet cafe.
