If you know someone has DSL, then you can get a free dial up account. Because every DSL account owner has 5 free dial up accounts.

Well....there are other ways of getting legitimate free internet.

Have a spouse that works for your internet company! Luck of the trade I guess, but yeah....for us as well since we have wireless broadband, if that goes down we too have a dial up account to use. Unfortunately, no system in the house has a modem! :P

Not that I care really, since I'd rather wait the day or so for the repairs to be done than risk hearing that damn dial up/connection sound and the slow moving browsers. Especially after tweaking IE and FireFox to run on a fast connection.

Got a 56k modem? In the UK you can use Freeola's emergency internet service I think.
Quote:
How Do I Connect?
Emergency Internet is easy to set-up, just follow the steps below for Instant Access:


Set your computer to dial 0845 604 3090

Using ANY user name

And ANY password
These are the only settings you'll ever need!

Best way to get free internet- the only way I know of is to get on with a wi-fi connection to a network that has no WEP/WPA encryption.

Celticfc- how do I secure my connection or hide myself from the online public. I notice your little icon on your post can tell me who I am, what OS I am using and who I connect with. So can I protect myself?

TO celticfc-Appreciate the information you shared.
To the guy asking about the wi-fi and xbox live- yeah you will be able to play on xbox live. No problem. Wi-Fi g/b can get up to 54mb/s even though real world results is more like 3 or 4mb/s connection that is still faster than dial up and the slowest dsl

Basically involves getting a router to share your internet connection wirelessly (they also have LAN sockets as well). I'd be surprised if you couldn't find one for less than $60.

Also read some where that you can actually get wi-fi signals up to a mile away from your home and it is a book somewhere that tells you to extend your wi-fi reception capabilities using every day ojects but I can seem to find it anywhere online.

Sounds like it might be BS. WiFi signals are never that strong ordinarily.

First read about it in PCWORLD as one of the writers was responding to a readers question about "How a restaraunt in his neighborhood was offering free wi-fi connection and he wanted to use it at his house which was like 4 or 5 miles away". The writer was talking about this engineer that wrote a book on how you can access unsecured wifi connections up to 5 miles but I forgot the book or the authors name and I have been lookin all on the web for it.

Hmm, ask your library, lol. probably not the sort of thing you should bring attention to. Dunno about 5 miles, but you can easily break into other people's networks one or two houses from you if they're not secured. You can't access their stuff but you can nick their net connection. It's what all the wireless people have to beware of when they set something up.
