The customer already had Cisco 800 series router gear on the boat with WiFi for inside, and also had a custom VOIP and VPN set up. ASMT will continue to support the customer under a 1 year support agreement that has been in effect since October 2008.

Please tell your friends and associates about it.

Alan Spicer Marine Telecom is now able to provide General Marine Electronics consulting and sales / installations / repairs / refits - with an associate Bryan of International Marine Electronics. IME was a great fit for ASMT as we work well together with our different areas of expertise - we are able to get more things done for a yacht working together than working seperately. Bryan has what he does, and I have what I do. And together Communications (Voice, Fax, Internet, Data) and General Marine Electronics (Navigation, Entertainment, Marine Weather, and other Marine Electronics) being areas that we can serve for the marine yachting industry.

How Can Internet Broadband Keep Marine Fuel Costs Down?

Author: Keith McGregor

With volatile marine fuel prices, changes in marine fuel legislation from one country to the next and concerns over availability how does a yacht owner keep in contact with his marine fuel broker or supplier when operating from offshore?

On smaller motor yachts where range is limited to coastal cruising, surfing the internet for marine fuel prices and availability followed by a call before departure is the most efficient use of resources.

When accessing a line ashore Broadband speeds range from 2Mb, 8Mb up to 24Mb. Data limitations from unlimited, 40Gb to 1GB. Some marinas are recognising the need for a Broadband connection and offer a plug-in point providing quick and easy access which can be utilised to get fuel market data and to email brokers, when alongside.

‘Marina’ Wi-Fi’ Broadband in the event there’s no nearby local Wi-Fi signal (hotspot) from a national provider; some marinas provide a wireless internet access service. One such company is Square Mile one of Europe’s largest marina and cover within 50 u.k. marinas with Wi-Fi access. MDL marinas in the U.K. provide their own Wi-Fi.

What happens when there’s no plug-in point at say an anchorage or the yacht is no longer in the marinas Wi-Fi hotspot coverage? Where there’s mobile phone coverage offering Mobile Broadband, this is a cost effective means of getting varying online coverage..

Mobile Broadband offers mobile internet access on the go. By plugging in a mobile broadband dongle to a laptop or computer onboard connection speeds of 7.2Mb to 1.8Mb and download data size ranging from Unlimited, 15Gb, to 1Gb. Limits of 1Gb and 3Gb are ideal for checking emails and doing light browsing, not enough for large files. Speeds depend on the signal of the mobile operator with whom you have an agreement, so first ask fellow yacht owners what signal strengths they obtain locally before purchasing.

Online one can search for available hotspots some of which are provided free of charge, Jiwire.com has over thousands of hot spots registered; just enter the post code of your marina to find out availability, another the Cloud, the cloud.net and broadbandexpert.com provides good package comparisons.

For those wanting complete coverage; to make phone calls or emails to purchase marine fuel or need to keep live contact with your office and transfer files Inmarsat have delivered a new Broadband system for mariners. The Satellite Broadband ‘Fleet’ range ‘77’, ‘55’ and ‘33’ system by Inmarsat provides Voice, fax, and data communications for both ocean-going and coastal vessels, delivered via a range of antenna sizes to suit different types of.

Consider carefully your long-term requirements from broadband internet before purchasing and the benefits. If you’re checking real time weather reports, downloading updated charts, or allowing your kids to game online then look for a provider that can handle heavy broadband demand in the harbour of your choice. Mobile broadband on coastal passages is one of the less expensive means to keep in touch when there is a signal available.

When making large marine fuel purchases timely communications from offshore can reduce fuel costs and also offset the investment in Broadband on board.

(Alan Spicers Note:)
Also FYI there are more satellite options for yachts now than there ever was. Keith mentions Inmarsat Fleet 33, 55, and 77. But there are VSAT, Fleet Broadband (now, also from Inmarsat), and Mini-VSAT among the options. We also do a lot of the 3G cellular that Keith mentions, as well as Routers to share WiFi Hotspots into an entire yacht with all crew, guests, and owners able to get online.

We also do General Marine Electronics now with Bryan of IME - so whatever you need onboard a yacht very likely we can do it.

My new backupvoiceandinternet.com domain is up:

http://backupvoiceandinternet.com

* And I actually like the interface in that web site creator that I used better than the one that I used on mobilebroadbandrouter.biz - so I may move that site over to this interface as well.

Backupvoiceandinternet.com was created to highlight the solution of using Ericsson Cellular 3G Voice and Internet (cellular broadband and voice routers) Routers to provide back up and redundancy for business and home (home office) users - to maintain their same level of voice and Internet communications when the land line communications go down.

It is quite nice - and quite easy to have 3G GSM UMTS HSPA Cellular on “standby” waiting to take over in providing voice and data (Internet) communications when the main services would fail. That way you go on doing business - or what it is that you do - without losing time, money, and productivity.

Please visit http://backupvoiceandinternet.com as well as my whole family of related web sites when you have a chance. Please call if have any questions or you need anything.

I have many more products and services - so don’t hesitate to ask. I also have GeoQuote online Communications Circuits quoting capability for best pricing on your Voice and Data Communications Link needs. This is on: http://riveroffers.com/?cogid=aspicer - so please make sure to stop by there.

Thank You!

My new mobilebroadbandrouter.biz domain is up:

http://mobilebroadbandrouter.biz

But is a work in progress. Thanks for your patience on that. Meanwhile it gives a brief description of what Mobile Broadband Routers are - and what they are good for - and what applications (what platforms? vehicles?) can they be used on or within?

Links are provided to my existing web pages that already have Broadband Routers by Ericsson fully described and full information about them. So at least you have somewhere to go for more information while I work on the: mobilebroadbandrouters.biz site.

Thanks!
