I have only very limited experience with wireless networks and their
accessibility, whether or not you have to pay. One free place I found that
really surprised me was the Internet Cafe in the departure lounge in
Terminal Two of the Tokyo International Airport in Japan. Surrounded by the
world's highest prices and suddenly I found a freebie like that! Pretty
neat.

Chris,
Okay--but as I understand it, public places, such as libraries and cafes,
have publically-accessible WiFi networks that you don't have to pay for so
long as you're in their vicinity. Same with airports. Am I missing something
here?
Kim

Hello Kimberly.
Most public hotspots are a paid for service to access these hotspots. You
scan for networks. Your PDA should find the network that you want, once you
find the network launch your Web browser, and it should open to a page that
will allow you to enter your information such as your name and payment
information. Once you do this your network should be established, allowing
you to surf the Web and receive e-mail with a high-speed connection. On the
other hand, this may be a network where whoever's in charge of the network
gives you all the information to allow you to access the network.
I hope this helps.
Chris

What are the general settings I need to implement into my BrailleNote if I
want to access the Internet while having my morning coffee at my local
Borders? I assume the SSID, Etc., does not apply here? What are the proper
settings?
Thanks,
Kimberly
