Utvol1982 Posted December 30, 2017 #1 Share Posted December 30, 2017 Hello everyone , Just wondering if anyone has had experience with the premium wifi on carnival ? I'd like to be able to check my home Camera's . I have a little dog and the back of the house has a doggie door that's fenced in so he will be able to come and go when we're not home. Someone will be by to check on him daily but there's times when it's cold he refused to push his way back into the house thru his doggie door. Not sure why maybe the doors to cold. Since the weather here will be in the 20s next week and he's a small dog he could freeze in a matter of hours. I'd like to be able to check on him when the cameras are triggered to know he's not having issues getting in. The videos are very short streams . 30 secs to a minute. Likely I'll buy the package anyways but had anyone else tried checking home surveillance cameras thru the wifi ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bUU Posted December 30, 2017 #2 Share Posted December 30, 2017 We have wifi accessible security cameras at home and was able to check on things ourselves most of the time. It was not ideal. Our cameras can pan but trying to get that to work remotely through ship internet didn't fly. This message may have been entered using voice recognition. Please excuse any typos.

Utvol1982 Posted January 9, 2018 Author #5 Share Posted January 9, 2018 Well for anyone cruising on Carnival Sunshine don't waste your money on the internet. I paid for the best internet they had and barely could load a web page. No chance of loading my home Camera's. Never came close to loading.

Pops, Esq. Posted January 9, 2018 #6 Share Posted January 9, 2018 If you have the WiFi plan, you can also log on to the desktop computers in the “Internet cafe”. Those could give you a shot at a bit faster speeds. Sent from my iPad using Forums 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Greetings from East TN [emoji41] Thank you for posting this. We sail on Sunshine in less than a week, and the only way my hubs can truly relax on any cruise is having our home cameras available 24/7 to check on our kitties and property. Our last 5 cruises have been with Celebrity and the ship WiFi worked fine, but I’ve heard mixed reviews about the WiFi on Sunshine. It’s time to start searching for WiFi spots while we are in port, or this cruise may not have a happy ending ..[emoji58] I know HMC won’t have WiFi since it’s their island, but Nassau and Freeport should have many options.

SadieN Posted January 22, 2018 #11 Share Posted January 22, 2018 Locate the WiFi routers in the ceilings. DH knew where they were on the Miracle. Had small issues when sailing to Hawaii, less on the Mexican Riviera. Sent from my iPhone using Forums Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
prestige809 Posted January 22, 2018 #12 Share Posted January 22, 2018 The best spots for internet are within the casino floor by the windows I was able to FaceTime and receive videos with no problems at least on my case Sent from my iPhone using Forums Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
