Airventure Wifi was good in 2017

[Bill Berson]

The wifi service was great this year. No problem all week.
The sign said to limit Internet time so others could use it.
Does that refer to limiting actual internet activity, or does it require actually turning off the wifi when not in use?

Our experience in Homebuilt Camping was spotty. There were moments with great signal strength and bandwidth, there were moments with great signal strength and very little bandwidth, and there were times where there was (seemingly) no available signal at all. It seemed to get better as the week progressed.

It was better than in past years near the new showers in the North 40, but it was a far cry from perfect.

Our experience in HBC it was mediocre at best and I'd say worse than last year. We had difficulty connecting and when we did we didn't stay on very long-- I resorted to cellular data more often than not. I will say the closer to Boeing Plaza we got the better service.

I tried it a couple times, and didn't have much luck. I was on the show grounds, not in camping. I just went to cell data.
Verizon service wasn't too bad. I could always get voice & text to work. Data connections were mostly usable, but not like being away from the congestion. We tried finding each other with the location sharing function in Google Maps, but that didn't update very well. We could tell if someone was in a particular area, such as Warbirds, but it wasn't good enough to be able to actually find them.
I could usually get web pages to load reasonably, except for Wed. night when everyone must have been trying to check weather. The storm caught us by surprise. Weather bug just showed a clear sky since it didn't load the radar data.

I actually found it was better last year in Camp Schooler. I was at stitz and linberg about 6 spaces down. Was fine on Sunday when we got there, but for the rest of the week I had signal, got ip address, but the connection to the outside world was non existent or spotty at best. Had to use my phone's data connection, which worked, but was slow (to be expected with that crowd!).

Totally forgot about the wifi,no data/connections issues at all during the week using Tmobile
