WiFi hotspots

Dr Zoidberg · Postby **Dr Zoidberg** » July 20th, 2006, 3:34 pm

Think it would be a good idea to compile a list of places with open wifi hotspots in T&T.
I'll start with two I've come upon. Pls add more to the list if you know of any.
Thanks.

1) Trotters
2) More Vino

I'm not quite certain, but I have heard that Movietowne has a hotspot.

Can anyone confirm?

I've never accessed the MT hotspot in the carpark... It would also be cool if people could post bandwidth test results with their hotspots

3) Piarco AIRPORT - ~1.5mbit

Rituals in Maraval has a Hotspot
So does the parking lot across from the bank next to KFC Maraval for some weird reason.. Someones internet isnt secure. But that is kinda spotty.

Where is the Hot spot in Movietowne?
cause it doesnt work outside in the parking lot?

Piarco airport is only inside and upstairs if I remember correct.

How exactly do they limit the distance anyways ?

Terminal only, the signal dies once you hit duty free

On the promenade opposite TSTT has a AP. 512k but MSN is blocked.

Outside of Trotters some other company has a 512k AP but they allow MSN. (or they did around december)

Trincity food court is supposed to have but the two times I went there I was only getting 169.254.*.* IP addresses and was "disconnected" (not like I was even connected) very regularly.

In the airport by KFC I was able to access TSTT's website and MSN but nothing else worked.

Driving between Kaydonna and Valpark I've passed a couple APs that don't have WEP on but never stopped to see if I could get online.

I have signed on INSIDE the airport a few times... no limitations on sites, etc... but I can only vouch for departures. :wink:

Well in the airport there are several, not just TSTT's one. I've connected upstairs in the restaurant, waiting infront of arrivals, sitting in my car in the car park, and sitting in a plane waiting to depart the gate ;-)

.

There are hundreds of open wifi APs along the east-west corridor, plenty of which aren't hotspots but simply ppl who never heard of WEP or encryption :-)

.

Also in trincity mall Laptop City had an open access point, but I got plenty strange looks from ppl after I pulled out my laptop infront their store and started to use the internet, lol.
