Rubbish WiFi at BLT
Checked in yesterday and literally couldn't get onto anything yesterday and had to use our 4g data on our phones
Woke in middle of the night and even then couldnt get on my ipad Mentioned it at reception this morning and it is slightly better now but still rubbish Really shouldnt be like this nowadays I don’t think |

We tend to stay at BLT every year and recently have had no problems with Wi-Fi. However, 4-5 years ago there definitely was a problem when we stayed, as the rooms Wi-Fi was non-existent and there were people in the lift area on devices as that was the only place you could get on to the internet.

We stayed that long ago and I remember it being a bit slow but this is crazy
It connects for a few minutes then drops off again Not sure it is even worth saying anything again as not sure they can do anything. The whole system needs rethinking Everything else is great Such a shame as at the minute it is putting us off staying here again Just came from AKL where we had no problem at all for the 10 nights Really glad we are only here for 4 nights |

We have had this at BLT previously and it’s quite annoying I agree. I seem to remember they sent an engineer round who fiddled with something and it was better after (still not great!)

We spoke to a woman in reception yesterday morning who said she would ring the IT people with our room number but nothing changed by the time we got back in the afternoon
Spoke to another lady last night and she has given us the number to ring ourselves We are only on floor 5 and a few doors down from the lift but cannot do anything over WiFi and having to type this using my data |

Oh dear, not good for what I consider a premium resort! We're staying in August so hope it improves by then 🤞

DVC internet was much better when it was a wired connection and you took your own mobile router

So…… the front desk rang IT and a lovely man came to our room
He moved the TV out and pulled the router onto the side and reset it He was so apologetic but obviously said they have to work with what they are provided with and agreed its just not good enough We said we had no problem the 10 nights we were at AKL and he said we wouldn't as its fibre WiFi there He said its very likely as he got ours working it would knock someone else's in the hotel out What a rubbish system and certainly not good enough for the class of hotel it is Jeez we priced up the 4 nights if we had paid cash and it was astronomical. Anyway it’s now working well.Not a 100% but at least I can get on here on my ipad which I couldn’t do yesterday at all So my advice is to go to the lobby and insist they ring IT while you are standing there. Don’t be fobbed off by them saying they will do it As I said previously we didnt have any problems the last time we stayed so maybe we were just unlucky Love everything else ( maybe not the size of the TV compared to the huge ones at ALK ) about the room and the hotel |
