BSJ Posted October 21, 2009 Share Posted October 21, 2009 And if they work, are any secure? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JimsKnight Posted October 21, 2009 Share Posted October 21, 2009 Yeah, the key (literally) with hotspots is that some aren't browsable hotspots at all. No internet on the network (where you get the two computers icon next to one another) - No dice it's a LAN not the internet/web. Keep looking. Password protected - Maybe some moves to get this working, but even then it might be the above anyway. When you have a 'real' list of the workable, browsable ones, then you're dancin' to my tune Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Password protected - Maybe some moves to get this working, but even then it might be the above anyway. When you have a 'real' list of the workable, browsable ones, then you're dancin' to my tune Green Icons = Open Access Points - Sometimes paid Hotspots ( e.g. Sipder@Familymarket, PattayaWifi, Mama Wifi etc.) Called also Captive Portal. Open your favourite web browser and try to open a page - you will be redirected to a login page with pricing information Red Icons = Encrypted Access Points - That's actually easy - Go there. Have a Drink (or two ) and simply ask fro the password (Most of the places have a "free for customers" policy ) Edited October 22, 2009 by JakeBKK Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JakeBKK Posted October 22, 2009 Author Share Posted October 22, 2009 And if they work, are any secure? Even when you're on a secure network, there is no real security ( A dual core i5 breaks WEP encryption in less than 30 seconds) So if you want to do important stuff like email or on-line banking, than better do that with SSL ( https) to ensure that you're safe Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JakeBKK Posted October 22, 2009 Author Share Posted October 22, 2009 I'm not sure if the scheme is still up to date - You cant get the password for the TOT-WiFi hotspots from city hall ( call 1337) you get 256kB access for free. faster bandwidth is also available as paid service Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
