Does your marina offer wireless access?

depasseg · 05-19-2014, 08:55 AM

I'm curious about wireless offerings (either for members and/or guests) at Marinas on the lake.

If yours does or doesn't, could you post the name of the Marina, and if they do or don't?

I'll start:

Quayside Yacht Club - Does not offer

Wolfeboro Corinthian Yacht Club does have dock-side wi-fi.

Gilford Yacht Club offers free wifi to slip holders.

Fay's Boat Yard is not a Marina but they do have free WI-FI

We don't have wifi but we do have 5 bars 4G coverage! The 4G transceiver is inside the UBC tower! I get far better luck with 4G over Metrocast.

Yes, but mainly in the 'club house'. It doesn't really reach out into all the slips.

At West Alton Marine we have metrocast cable free and I pay for my own modem for WiFi

For under $200, you can extend Wifi quite a distance. I had mine at around 1/2 mile where I lived before. Home and rented motorcycle garage were quite a distance away from each other. Using directional antennas, you can go a mile pretty easily with some little power boosting technology under the hood.

Sort of like the old 10 meter linear days of CB radio. 7 watts? Hmmm, I think I want 400 watts today...

Let me know if you want some info. Please be a little tech savvy though, otherwise I will probably lose you in the first few seconds..hehe.

I think this is a political issue, more than a techincal issue.

I'm technical myself, so the technology is not an issue.

Thanks.
