I see you have Tesco in Manor on the list, the wifi also works in Tesco in Abbey court, Tralee. You have to enter your clubcard number for it to activate though. It worked for me fine!

You can get 15mins free Tesco WiFi without using your clubcard number, for all the conspiracy theorists out there :eek:

There is now a free wifi service available in Killarney, throughout the town: http://www.radiokerry.ie/news/new-free-wifi-service-launched-in-killarney/

Has anyone used this yet and how does it rate in terms of speed etc.?

Ciarrai76

wonder how long it will take for Tralee to follow suit? has been talk about it for a while now

I did a quick test of the Killarney Free Wifi on Speedtest.net


The service is provided by Bitbuzz and users get a free 30 minutes access. Although it should be noted that you must register for the service and registering on an iPhone is a pain (Take note Bitbuzz) as it is a regular web page and not mobile-optimized.

forgot to add that the main building with all the indoor shops in Manor West has free wifi with Bitzbuzz.

I also noticed yesterday when I was up there that Debenhams now comes up as free wifi with O2, which you have to register with, but its quick & easy. Only problem is the phone signal is really bad in Debenhams, so the further you go in the more you loose signal. However, saying that, I picked up that signal inside Gloria Jeans. It says in Gloria Jeans that they have free wifi, however it picked up the Debenhams one first so I didn't check if there's is separate.

The barber shop at the corner of Ashe St/Courthouse Lane, Tralee, (the one that moved from further up Ashe St) have free wifi. Password is posted up on the wall so you can post while you wait for your haircut!

only spotted this, but agree with you on it. I was in Killarney during the summer and couldn't login to this at all. Really slow and annoying.

MJ's Diner across from Argos in Tralee has free wifi, just ask staff for password.

Courtneys Bar + Scotts hotel in Killarney both have free wifi

I was using the Wifi in Tralee Library today. Bit of a pain to be honest. The restrictions on usage are awful - could not even activate Hola to watch a BBC programme.

It's a vpn, that would be blocked by the librarys systems. Too easy to access something else besides BBC player

This thread would be useful if the list appeared in every post with the new locations added by the latest poster. That way anyone interested in a full listing would just have to look at the latest post.

The Gloria jeans wifi is fine just ask for the password at the counter Its one of the long complicated ones.
