Wi Fi Hotspots

Post by sahona »

Tobermory - "Taig Solais" available on the pontoons/ moorings. Seems reliable so far.

Kerrera - as above

Melfort - unservicable
Ardfern - "

Any more ?
http://trooncruisingclub.org/ 20' - 30' Berths available, Clyde.
Cruising, racing, maintenance facilities. Go take a look, you know you want to.

Craobh is "craobh99" I think - if that doesn't work try 999 and/or insert a space. Good on pontoons, tenuous on the hard standing.

I thought that they may have turned off the Tobers one after office hours, or it may have just fallen over when I was there.

The Kerrera router was new and rubbish, they were waiting for a different one so no service.
I didn't go and sit outside the office to see if it was any better.

croabh99 sounds right IIRC.

My Vodaphone dongle did OK but it was slooooooow, I forgot how slow dial-up was.
Downloading the met office inshore forecast text page worked OK once I had bookmarked it. http://www.metoffice.gov.uk/weather/mar ... table.html
