Wifi Hotspots

Hi,
First of all, i'm sorry if this is in the wrong place but i had no idea where else to put it. I live in brisbane, australia and i have been trying to find wifi hotspots for my ipaq. every place i go to there is either a network key or you have to subscribe. if anyone knows of any hotspots in the city your help would be appreciated.

Thanks in advance, Peter was here

Not all WiFi hotspots are free, you are trying to access WiFi with restricted access thus having to enter in a network key or subscribe. I don't live in Australia or Texas so I wouldn't know exact WiFi hotspots, but usually local coffee shops and such might have free WiFi access.

I just found this web site so I can't say how accurate or updated is is: free wi-fi hotspots wifi cafes coffee shops hotels airports RV Parks.

If you scroll to the bottom of the index page there is a link to Australia, New Zealand and The South Pacific wifi locations.

Thumbs up

Telstra also offers Wi-Fi hotspots at most Mc Donald's and Starbucks, as well as many pay-phones for a modest fee... You can pay using a Telstra Phone Away pre-paid calling card or a credit card, and I believe that you can charge it directly to your bill if you're a Telstra Big Pond or Telstra Mobile customer.
