Kris10May 9 Report post Posted January 5 I watched a YouTube video that was full of recommendations of what to pack/bring on your cruise. One thing recommended was a Portable Travel Router. I am under the impression that it will allow you to use the WiFi for multiple devices from one subscription. Anyone familiar with this? The device is only $25 on Amazon. We have purchased one Voom subscription with our drink package. Any advice would be appreciated. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

twangster 20,788 Report post Posted January 5 Be aware that sharing a Voom package is against the terms and conditions. Royal has been making the use of travel routers more difficult on some ships. In some cases you can spend a lot time fooling around with them to get them to work and when you finally do it's blocked after a few minutes. At some point it's not worth the effort while on a relaxing vacation. For these reasons I'm hesitant to comment very much about them. 1 Peter2 reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I believe that one Voom package can be shared by multiple devices but can be used by one device at a time. Is that what you meant, Twangster? 1 kbowen0119 reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

twangster 20,788 Report post Posted January 6 Sorry for the confusion, the topic was travel routers and a single Voom subscription so within the context of using a travel router to share a Voom plan with multiple devices, that is not allowed. Using one Voom plan with multiple devices when using them one at a time is allowed. Connecting a phone then disconnecting one phone and connecting on a different phone is allowed. Phone, tablet, laptop, etc - no problem as long as it's one at a time. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
marti314 477 Report post Posted January 6 One thing to also note is that a lot of the new phones actually have two WIFI devices that you can connect to wifi and also create a hotspot with the same phone. If you read the T&C's you are not actually connecting multiple devices to the VOOM wifi so this is a grey area. 1 Kris10May reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
