Welcome To Playa WiFi Network
Playa WiFi Network is a Free, Secure Public WiFi Network, available to you when and where you need it most. We are currently adding hotspots in Cozumel, Playa del Carmen and the rest of the Quintana Roo region.
FREE: Playa WiFi Network is secure and offered at no cost to you, supported by advertisements for the top local attractions, dining, shopping and more.
SECURE: Always be sure you are on a secure network! Even if you are given a WEP or WPA key or password to join a network, anyone else on that network can potentially access your devices and information! Be sure you are connected through a secure system such as Playa WiFi Network and you only enter private information on sites that start with https:// and have a small padlock next to the website address.
Why Playa WiFi Network?
Security
Playa WiFi Network uses licensed software provided by Spotngo and Aradial AAA Hotspot Radius Server Secure Technology to protect you. Aradial Hotspot Server for wireless includes state of the art superior technology which provides all security and authentication requirements for a wireless based network to protect its customers’ activities in real time. When you log in at Playa WiFi Network, it is through secure SSL connections (the same security used by banks and financial institutions.) This security measure encrypts your login and payment data while connected to our secure server. You can verify the safety of your data by checking for the “lock” symbol on the web browser while connected to a secure server. The “lock” assures you that the data is encrypted and the web site is who they claim they are. You can also ensure you are on a secure site by checking that you see “https” rather than just “http” before the URL (or website address – the “s” indicates a secure site.)
Connection Speed
In addition to the high speed Internet circuits to which Playa WiFi Network hardware and software connects, built in bandwidth management (Fair Gain Technology) and policy control allows our end users to have fast service and a pleasant experience. Bandwidth management prevents certain users from absorbing more of their fair share of the bandwidth which has a direct affect on all other users. This is a frequent issue on free public WiFi networks, where one person downloading music, movies or other large files slows down the other users. With Fair Gain Technology, the bandwidth is divided equally among the users.
Roaming Network
Playa WiFi Network coverage zones are seamless…regardless of where you move around physically under the same blanket, you will stay connected to the network, not an individual access point. Login with the same account at any Playa WiFi Network location.
