Free Wi-Fi
To access Wifi you'll need a free user account. If you can receive a text message, you can create a Wi-Fi account yourself.
If you can't receive a text message, we can create an account for you - just ask at the counter.
To create an account yourself :
In any Powys library, select the ‘powysGuest’ Wifi signal.
Launch the web browser. It should redirect to the Powys CC ‘Login/Create an account’ page.
If it doesn't redirect, type neverssl.com into the browser - this will redirect you to the Powys login page.
Click the link at the bottom of the page to create a new account (the link is called "Os nad oes gennych, cliciwch yma / If you do not have an account, click here")
Fill in the short form, including a mobile phone number, and save. You will receive a text message with your username and password.
Go back to the Sign In page and log in.
Your login will be remembered for 30 days, after that you will be asked to login again
