Yachtspot v5 builds yet further on the features that were introduced in Yachtspot Marine WiFi v2, v3, and v4, with exciting new innovations such as our Safe Surf
VPN™ service, and DNS Blaster™!

When you require the ultimate in network security and confidentiality on your wireless network, Yachtspot’s new Safe Surf VPN™ service is ready to encrypt,
and securely tunnel your Internet traffic to our VPN endpoint servers, avoiding the dangers of network sniffing associated with open wireless networks.

DNS Blaster™ speeds up your Internet browsing by querying several DNS servers simultaneously and returning the first reply, resulting in requests for web pages going out much quicker, especially on slow and lossy networks.

Along with numerous small improvements, we have also added useful new features such as an NTP server, DHCP reservations, and ‘extensive debugging’.

You can see demonstrations of all the v5 enhancements on our YachtspotWiFi Youtube channel!

Teaming provides the installer with a centralised, structured solution which enables owners, and crew members, to manage multiple Internet connection devices easily. Teaming avoids the problems associated with having multiple DHCP servers on the LAN, it doesn’t require devices to be powered on, or off, it’s easy to use, and easy to understand.

To use teaming, Yachtspot must be running the only active DHCP server on the network. To configure, make sure all other DHCP servers are disabled, and all ‘connectors’ are set with a static IP address on the same subnet as the Yachtspot. Then enter the settings for each ‘connector’.

Teaming works by changing the Gateway, and DNS addresses supplied by DHCP, to those required to use the selected ‘connector’. A small executable is supplied to easily renew client settings.
