I am accessing this site and others on my ship's internet. It's slow and there are a lot of things I can't do: upload/download software or patches or updates is the biggest one. The bandwidth is very limited.
And I don't know when I will be in port again. We left suddenly without much warning this morning. We were supposed to be there a couple more days...
I know all about bandwidth issues. I don't know what country you're going to be in (I understand the term "Need to Know basis) but if you have access to an American or Swedish library, I would go there, commandeer one of their computers and download the update to a flash drive. A 14G flash drive held everything I needed. It reduced my download time from hours to roughly 45 minutes.
