I have been in both domestic QF lounges this week and on occasions have not been able to log my iPhone into wi-fi. It is a 4 model. Anyone else have similar experiences or anyone have any suggestions as to how to overcome this?View attachment 6071
 
I havent had any problems - I was in the SYD J lounge yesterday and the connection was fine.

The way I connect is to turn wifi on (if it is off), connect to the lounge WiFi and then wait for the login screen to ask if I accept the T&C and then boom - connected.
 
I just start using my phone and if I launch say Safari, the login screen will pop up fairly quickly. If I use another app, it may not.

I was in the SYD and MEL lounges several times last week, and the performance of the Optus WiFi is extraordinarily good on the laptop - plenty of up and download capacity, and way better than the Telstra system of old. Didn't have any problems connecting the iPad or iPhone.

I wonder if it's possible for an iThingy's WiFi tables to fill or overflow? :evil:
