Downloading podcasts in the lounges

[GoldCanyon340]

Does anyone else have issues downloading podcasts in the QP/J lounges? For the second consecutive week I have not been able to get my iDevices to get content from podcast servers in the ADL QP. At first I thought QF was blocking large data downloads but then I saw my Facebook and United Airlines apps download and install this afternoon at ADL, both of which are hefty apps.

No, but I haven't been able to operate "Press Reader" via the Qantas application without it asking for payment, for the past 10 days.

I didn't try PressReader today and last week I was on JQ to DPS so it wasn't available to me. I haven't had issues with PressReader in the past though and I'm sure I've gotten podcast content before.

I've had trouble downloading podcasts in Melbourne/Brisbane/Cairns QPs for several months. Worked in the Cairns reef lounge and even the Air Nuigini lounge in Port Moresby. I've left feedback about it to Qantas a few times, but nothing has changed as of last week.

Edit: Also works at home, or in the lounge if I disconnect from the lounge WiFi and tell the device to use a mobile data link instead.

OT but I too haven't been able to use PressReader for the past month without seeking a charge.
