Can anyone confirm if WiFi is working in the Orient area?

When were were there in January, the WiFi choices were:
1. Using our Chippie sim cards. Coverage is spotty in the village but pretty reliable on the beach;
2. Orange WiFi hot-spot - we were there for 4 weeks so we got the one month unlimited data plan for about $30. This service is quite slow;
3. Going to one of the places in the village (like L'Epicurian) for lunch and accessing their free WiFi.

There was no wired internet available in the part of the village we were in. Wilfred Brooks was telling us they hope to have it working by the end of 2018.

We were wondering if Dauphin might have had better cell coverage in the village so we checked with them. They were quite up front and said their coverage wouldn't be any better than the Chippie coverage.
