Can you hear me now?

Only phones using Bell Mobility will work in Iqaluit. iPhones and other 3G/4G smartphones do NOT work regardless of the provider, unless you’re connected to a wireless network (for data only). Be prepared for dropped calls and the occasional delay in receipt and delivery of texts and messages. Prepaid calling cards for long distance calling are available from local retailers.

Are you sure it is plugged in?

Currently there is no Internet at the townhouses, but you can access Internet at the library (5-minute walk) and at other hotspots like the Caribrew Café. You will find Internet very slow compared to what you are used to, so please remember it’s best to keep your usage to checking email and Facebook or uploading a few pictures. You won’t be able to stream video or download huge files.

For family and friends to keep in touch - we will try to post updates here on a regular basis.
