Denver Airport Wifi is Sloooooooooow

slow-wifi

I give them credit for offering free wifi in the first place, more airports should, but it’s kind of purposeless if it’s too slow to do anything with it. I just clocked the time it took just to get through the “policy acceptance” stuff at 20 minutes! They’re about to load my plane now, so all I really have time to do is rant about how slow it is.

In the log-on phase, I counted about 10 different screens, including a page for the usage policy, a 30 second ad that couldn’t actually load because the connection is too slow, and the rest were a bunch of “next you’ll be doing this” pages. Seriously, how about you just do it instead of telling me and making me download another page.

Now that I am online, they’ve embedded a frame at the top of the browser window with a bunch of ads. I understand that they’re trying to make some money off it, but these ads are probably taking up half the bandwidth of the entire network.

I’ve got a picture to upload, but I’m not even gonna try from here.

Back home now. Got to sit next to a lady that was super sick and hacking up a lung. Passed up my normal ginger ale for some orange juice. Good times.
