In reply to Mountain Llama:
For what it's worth, I agree about the experience at the hut- we're only interested in an internet connection for a weather station to send data back down - same with the webcam, which is certainly the angle we looked at it from in the first place. I'm not sure if the SMC are keen on the wifi in the hut or not, but that's for their committee etc. to decide, it'd be an impressive feat to get it to work though if they did - certainly no netflix in there...
