Fort Lauderdale, FL: June 30th 2009: Global Satellite USA, the leader in satellite communications for the maritime industry, is pleased to announce the launch of YachtSpot Marine WiFi - for quick, secure, and easy-to-use wireless access to the Internet, ideal for boatyards, installers, megayacht owners and crew.

One of the major benefits of using YachtSpot is the easy log-on feature. To log on, simply open a web browser, click to scan, then select a hotspot and connect.

Global Satellite USA President and CEO comments, "We have tested several WiFi products over the years, but YachtSpot Marine WiFi outshines the rest with its reliability, excellent support and seaworthy tough hardware that logs on and stays on".

One of Global Satellite USA customer's commented after a few weeks of installation: "I am very impressed with the installation of the YachtSpot WiFi unit you supplied. I have had extensive experience with other similar systems but I feel that this unit surpasses the others in simplicity and range. We picked up a WiFi signal at one and a half miles outside San Diego and were able to log in effectively. Even with the refit yard's base station at close range there was an improvement in quality of signal with the YachtSpot. Also it is easy to install and the user interface is simple and foolproof. Thanks again for your recommendation of this unit".

YachtSpot connects wirelessly to marina or near shore WiFi hotspots using 802.11 b/g and shares that connection between all of the Yacht's onboard laptops, desktops, servers, PDA's, VOIP phones, and any other device that can use an Internet connection.

YachtSpot is similar in functionality to the Broadband router you use at the office or at home. The internal interface is Ethernet which can be shared using a switch or a wireless access point. The external interface is a wireless client which connects to WiFi hotspots.

YachtSpot provides security to the onboard network. It is not a bridge, like a wireless access point, which shares it's IP range with the entire marina, but a router which uses 'Network address translation' [NAT]. The onboard network on the Yacht will be separated and fire walled from the marina's network and has its own IP range.
