Kokonet has moved into the provision of wireless Internet access for residents all over Seychelles’ main island, Mahé.
The local Internet Service Provider has made the service available in specific locations marked as hotzones and is offered using the WiFi technology.
Mobility has become an increasingly important part of the Internet services as the battle for users moves from the home PC to mobile devices such as laptops and mobile phones.
The Marketing Executive for Kokonet, Romano Lawrence says “our objective is to give the Seychellois customers, as well as our visitors, the ability to use the Internet whilst on the move at an affordable rate.”
The service allows WiFi-enabled laptop, smart phone and PDA (Personal Digital Assistant) users to access the Internet, their e-mails, company intranet and download files, all wirelessly.
Kokonet has installed equipment in selected areas that will eventually provide a countrywide WiFi coverage. Among the spots receiving coverage at present are the centre of Victoria, the International Airport at Pointe Larue, Victoria Port and a number of high profile hotels.
The hotzones providing the Kokozone service is identified by the distinctive orange coloured logo with black and red writings with the company's official
Coco-de-Mer symbol displayed.
To use the Kokozone service, customers have to purchase a prepaid scratch card at R100 providing two hours of access. To log on the service, customers have to configure their settings, launch their browser in any Kokozone area, insert a web address and they will automatically be directed to the Kokozone web page. Then you have to enter the pin number obtained from the scratch card in the login box and get connected.
Kokozone hotspots are expected to come up in most areas on Mahé, Praslin and La Digue by the end of the year.

Thanks for the info. It will be nice to update it from time to time and add more detail as they come.
Thanks
It's really great to see that Seychelles are at last getting all the technology that will make them rank even better as a tourist resort. People may come here for vacations but in this resolutely business-oriented society, I'm sure they will welcome the ability to easily access these technologies (especially in case of emergencies).
Hmm, it looks like your blog didn't update my first comment (it was extremely long) so I'll just summarise what I had
