Locating WIFI Hotspots - A Few Simple Tricks!

Posted by Admin Wednesday, April 29, 2009

Hotspots are public wireless Internet access points. Most laptops and some PDAs can access the Internet by connecting to them.

Of course, you have to find them first. Here are a few ways you can do that.

You could walk around the city, looking for them. Sometimes that's the best way to do it. If you have a few minutes, pull out your laptop and see if there are any hotspots you can connect to. If there are, file away that information for the future.

Make sure that you share this information with anyone who's curious. That's another way to find them. Ask around. Lots of people will share this information with you if you ask them to.

Many businesses advertise their free Internet. Look at the advertising of cafes, restaurants, hotels, malls, etc.

If you're wondering about a certain area, phone up some of the businesses nearby and ask them if they have one. If they don't, ask them why not. Tell them you only go to restaurants and cafes with hotspots. Maybe they'll create one if enough people ask for one.

Some might have a password. Ask the business if you can have the password. They'll usually give it to you if you ask nice.

You can also try the old standbys. Most businesses use their phone number or fax number as their password. These are easy enough to find. Others just use a blank password or they use "password" as their password. Companies that make it this easy to get in usually don't mind if you use their network.

Of course, I don't recommend or condone hacking into people's networks, so always get permission before do this.

If you look around, you'll probably find one. Then you can check your email wherever you are.
