Thumbs up Faulty Towers Inn now has wi fi

They have went and done it now.

Gollum and Simon have just installed wi fi so that Faultys can cater for all you BMs who bring their lap tops on their hols.

I thought wi fi was something to do with the stereo!

55555555 Its a good move. Surprising the number of people who want to hook up their laptop on holiday .
Another hotspot is always good,especially daytime with a drink in the hand and a big burger by your side

Did that last year from Mai Thai. Its good fun.

Just get a wireless card and run the software and search for wireless connection when you get to Faulties.

Abit OT, but on the northside of Sydney they are building a new road tunnel, but last year a block of apartments partially collapse into the tunnel. Now there is a wireless access point there now somewhere in the apartment block, advertising itself as "faulty towers"

Me and Ead had dinner at Faulty's yesterday, and saw a sign about wi-fi, and Gollum told me again later in the evening. I though you already had it since November or so.

Faulty's Wi-Fi

Hi, everything bedding in here at the moment. We have the wi-fi card in but still some teething problems to be resolved within the next day or 2. Gollum is on the case. We've had ADSL in since Nov and the speed was slow at the start. The signal seems to be a lot better now and those coming in to use the free internet for customers are well chuffed. Will keep you informed when fully operational.

Wi-Fi now up and running in Faultys- if you need to change your DNS settings the correct one is taped to the monitor.
