#in-flight wifi

Been hearing about all that in-flight WiFi in the US for a year now and we've also reported that local carriers Cebu Pacific and PAL will also offer them. This time, we got to try the in-flight internet service during our trip from Orlando to Detroit. Was flying Delta all the way from Manila to Nagoya, to Detroit then Orlando but the WiFi service was only available between Detroit and Orlando. The WiFi is powered by Gogo and you can subscribe to the internet service based on a per hour, per flight or even monthly basis. Was fixing the built-in wifi device of the MSI Wind for several hours now to no avail. The problem is that the wifi just wouldn't detect any wireless connections even if you're already beside the router. I've already searched for related problems and read on forums that there's a sizable number of MSI Wind owners are having the similar problmes with the wifi. The system seems to be registering the right hardware but the wifi just could not detect any signal (AP).
