Shame most of them are BTOpenZone. Have you ever had a look at their pricing plan? £6/hour!

What do you expect, they're pricing for business :evil:

, not to give us handy accesss to HG when we're out and about.

That's what war-walking/driving/chalking's for :twisted:

£6 an hour!!!
Ripoff bastards, even for business

They're probably charging a premium because they know if someone needs access to the internet urgently when they're on the road then they'll pay the price for it. Just drive about and find some private unsecured Wi-Fi network instead...

I redid the search for free networks.

None (yet)

For free WiFi all you need is a laptop installed with a copy of NetStumbler.

85% of all WiFi nets are insecure.

Just steal it. It's more fun that wat ;>

Good choice YokerBloke... I'm a Mac man myself!
What model of PB do you have?

by **YokerBloke** » Mon Aug 16, 2004 2:38 pm

It's a 12'' G4 PowerBook 1.33ghz Hooked up to a TFT monitor, you wouldn't know it was a laptop. Fast wee bugger!

Oh I found MacStumbler and KisMAC apps

My only PowerBook is a 540C! It has PC card slot tho so it'll do Wi-Fi.
