WI Connect

Hi can anyone help me with getting an internet connection at Don Juan?

I have been emailing and contacting WIFI connect since 17th of June and despite numerous emails and calls they don’t seem to be interested to provide any service. This is disappointing considering the investment of the hardware and installation of their router and antenna etc...

Any info would be appreciated.

best regards

Andy

Is this the WiFiConnect linked to Y-Internet who is the preferred community provider?

I only use Y-Internet (office is in Calahonda) and have done so for several years. Their service is very good  - I e-mailed them my requirements, pay via Paypal and the connection is there when I arrive at my apartment.

Try using Y-Internet and check them out for yourself.

Hi Jenx,

Thanks other people at don Juan have recommended same. , I just called Y internet at their offices below , got through to a very helpful English speaking lady. She has arranged for one of their engineers to visit my apartment and they will reprogram the original WIFI Connect router and Antenna. So Job done, I  wish I called them first rather than wasting my time with WIFI connect.

Hi Andy. 

Did y-internet reprogramme antenne and router from wifi connect ? How much did they charge?

can more than 1 unit acces internet?

Hello Solgre

Based on my own experience, with a private antenna you can connect several devices to the Internet at the same time. There is no limit on data usage and you buy your data package by days, weeks or months.

if you buy data via Y- Internet website you can only connect one device to the Internet at a time. I think a private antenna also gives better signal strength -  I often have 100% signal strength displayed on my devices.

Hope this answers your question.

Hi Solgre,

Yes , they come and re program the WIFI connect router and antenna for free , takes them about 45 mins, Once this is done the internal router acts just like a normal home router and you can connect as many devices as you want without needing to log on each time , its great , just pay them for the internet period you need and your router comes alive automatically.

I wish Id done this at outset. :-)

It's been a while since I looked on here so only seeing this now. Barry is still in Fuengirola but appears to have other business interests and is no longer involved with Y-Internet (who own the equipment in Don Juan).

For anyone interested Land Lines (so high speed unlimited internet) is now available. There are no part time deals available for this so if you want it you have to be prepared to pay a monthly fee (€40-50€ usually). 

Hi can anyone get a message to ken and anna block 10 please to ring Irene and peter from Liverpool

Thanks

Hi 

just e-mailed y-internet on this mail. Info@y-internet.com,. Had this answer:

The cost for installation in Don juan is €181.50.

If we can use the router, this will be reduced to €136.50.

Did anyone else pay this amount ?
