jeff74 Posted August 11, 2022 #1 Share Posted August 11, 2022 Hello, I was wondering if anyone had any experience with how fast internet access was on the dolphin deck. We're in the aft section on the Volendam on an upcoming cruise. I'm a little worried it'll be like at our house where the edges have spotty/slower connectivity. Thanks in advance!

CruiserBruce Posted August 11, 2022 #2 Share Posted August 11, 2022 Welcome to Cruise Critic! There are wifi antennas all over the ships now. Any speed limitations are more about satellite uplink connection and how many others are using it, or bandwidth available. Internet speeds on ships rarely compete well with land service. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is my experience that the stateroom walls are metal and do not have their own repeaters (except Neptune/Pinnacle Suites) so better connections for some are sitting in their open doorway, public areas around the ship (my fave is around the indoor pool at a table under a repeater box), or in the Crow's Nest. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jeff74 Posted August 12, 2022 Author #5 Share Posted August 12, 2022 I'm already envisioning the complaints from my wife who will be working on the cruise and my son who will be playing Roblox or whatever. He seems like a strong candidate for getting throttled down on internet speed lol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
