While many dream of cruising through the Caribbean, it was all in a week’s work for Parker Beaumont’s specialist WiFi team. This past week, our expert engineers completed their annual maintenance and passive WiFi surveys on a luxury cruise liner, ensuring seamless connectivity for passengers and crew alike.
Working through the nights, our team conducted detailed passive surveys, identifying optimisation opportunities and executing remedial actions to fine-tune the ship’s WiFi network. And with the work done by sunrise, they had the chance to enjoy the stunning Caribbean islands during the day – a well-earned reward for a job well done.
Cruise Connectivity - The Challenges We Overcome
Delivering consistent, high-performance WiFi on cruise liners is no easy feat. Ships present unique challenges, including:
- Signal Interference & Structural Barriers
Thick metal walls and constantly shifting environments make seamless coverage difficult.
- Passenger Density & Peak Demand
Thousands of guests streaming, browsing, and video calling simultaneously require a robust, optimised network.
- Remote Connectivity Issues
Cruise liners operate in some of the most isolated parts of the world, meaning every access point must perform flawlessly.
Our advanced passive WiFi surveys mapped out network performance across all decks, corridors, and critical areas, ensuring optimal performance for guest and crew networks.
Our Process: Fine-Tuning WiFi for Smooth Sailing
- Passive Surveys
Walking the corridors at night, our team meticulously gathered data to analyse signal strength, interference, and performance gaps.
- Network Recommendations & Remedials
The team identified and implemented fine-tuned solutions to enhance speed, coverage, and reliability.
- Annual Maintenance & Reporting
Every adjustment was documented, ensuring the ship’s WiFi network remained at peak performance until the following survey.
