Qatar 777 WiFi

Just got off a 777 Q-Suite from IAD-DOH that had free wifi. It was pretty fast but they never told the plane it was active. One FA just happened to mention it to my wife. Just wanted to toss it out there.

Free wifi? You mean the free 10MB?

Friend of mine just buzzed me from aboard A7-BED (qsuites) - so it seems like some of them (BEO/P also amongst others) already have them. Anyone have a list of 77W's that have wifi?

I was on LHR-DOH and experienced the same. 777 with QSuites had free wifi. No data caps/limits. Actually pretty fast and reliable throughout the entire flight (I could download a few large attachments received over email); much better than what I experienced before on other aircrafts, so I wonder if they changed technology.

Can confirm, was on A7- BEN, QSuites fitted 777. The WiFi service was not announced, but was freely available and was pretty quick.

Onboard 701 to JFK right now (A7-BEK) and WiFi functional. Not announced, but uncapped and free. 1.8 download and .5 upload. Seems to zip along pretty well all things considered. Definitely a nice enhancement

Currently on QR1363 (A7-BAH) there is wifi and they are calling it "Super Wifi".

1 hour free or $10 for full flight and faster speeds.

The free wifi was running at 2.40 Mbps download and 2.36 Mbps upload.
The full flight for $10 is running at 4.23 Mbps download and 4.46 Mbps upload.

Are all 787s wifi equipped?

Is there a wifi plan that covers all flight sectors (ie, covers the connecting flights)?

All of the QR 787's I've flown on, have Wi-Fi - albeit sometimes it hasnt worked.

There isnt, unfortunately, a plan which covers you right the way through.
