If you have WiFi enabled technology of your own, you can access the Internet 24x7.
Potton Library has a number of WiFi enabled devices you can use to access the Internet, so if you don't have a device just ask us.

Is the library WiFi secure?

This is a trial project. While the trial runs we would advise you not to transmit personal or sensitive information using the Potton WiFi.

Is there a download limit?

Yes - You can download a maximum of 100MB in a hour long session.
The Library Service anticipates that users of WiFi will adopt a sensible approach to the use of the service. Where there is cause for concern over an individual's use of WiFi the MAC address of your device may be blocked without warning to ensure fair and equitable access to the network.

What should I do if I have a technical problem?

There should not be any problems. However, if you do experience any difficulties talk to a member of staff or call 01234 228787 (Open Monday to Friday 9.00 - 5.00pm, there is an answer phone out of office hours)

So turn up, switch on, connect and have a go!
