"Local access only" has become the dreaded term during our travels. We arrive at an RV park, log on to the network. No problem getting on the router but there it stops. We cannot get on the internet.
Sometimes Jack and I sit side by side, one of us gets on the net and the other does not.
We experienced this first in Mali where the hotel had to reset the router (LIvebox from Orange) each time a new guest logged on. Based on that and later experiences it seems that it occurs more often at places where the initial connection is ADSL. What a pain. But we are experiencing this now so frequently that we wonder A. what the cause is and B. what we can do to get on the internet.
Are there others with this experience? In a few weeks we will hit the road for 2+ months and I already dread that %?@)! message!
