A bunch of ‘coffee people’ became happy yesterday, when Starbucks announced it would be partnering with AT&T to provide free WiFi. Starbucks has said that about 7,000 locations nationwide will carry the new service. Will small cafes hurt due to Starbucks offering free WiFi. We believe so.
Ok so is it really free? Well sort of, [...]
Esta era cuasi la forma como empezaba una canción de los sesentas, sobre los hippies que iban hacia San Francisco en búsqueda de libertad y comprensión. Pero, en este caso llevado desde el punto de vista Geeky.Según una noticia leída en[url=http://news.yahoo.com/s/pcworld/20080202/tc_pcworld/142115]YAHOO[/url], el metro de San Francisco, estaria haciendo pruebas con un servicio de WIFI disponible dentro de sus lineas. Esta conexión no está todavia en fase de producción pero mas bien de testeo, y los servicios de conexión, no son automáticos, si no mas bien, manuales y son los usuarios los que tienen que conectarse, pero imagino que sea solamente una cuestión de tiempo.:-0, de la primera vez que he leído la noticia, dos cosas asaltaran mi mente, que no sé si son correctas o no, dado que nunca he utilizado el metro de San Francisco, pero que dada mi experiencia en metros del viejo continente, me hacen probable ser correctas.La primera es que, generalmente el metro es u

After to install we initiated it and automatically the program will track the wireless signals that they are in the area soon to connect itself to them anonymously, therefore is free.

I have discovered the great benefit of WiFi (wireless fidelity) these days. My daughter is spending more time at the Hamilton College library, and we often go to our local library for research. I am able to bring my laptop and continue to work while they do their research. I love free WiFi!Places where you can connect online for free via wireless are called "hotspots." I've discovered that most libraries are "hotspots." I've also learned that most McDonald's restaurants offer free WiFi, too. I am no frequenter of McDonald's, but I would be hesitant to connect there because I am overly cautious about the clientele. As always, you should take security measures when connecting to a WiFi hotspot (have a firewall running, etc).I found a few websites that will find WiFi hotspots for you. I checked out my local area and a few others, and did not see any libraries listed. I would prefer to connect at my local library than, say, a hotel, but it is always nice to know one's options. And I think

He encontrado en Internet un articulo interesante, de Glenn Fisherman, con algunas consideraciones sobre el estado del WiFi durante 2007.Concuerdo con algunas de las posiciones que son defendidas en el articulo, y mucho de los puntos abordados fueron también discutidos en OpenNetworks.Uno de los puntos que mas ha llamado a la atención del autor, es el gran interés creado alrededor de las redes WiFis en ciudades, y cree que 2008 será su año.Esta tendencia, no ha empezado realmente en 2006, pero es muy anterior a esta fecha, y nosotros mismos en España, tuvimos en los últimos años varios intentos en ciudades y pueblos de España para crearlas, y cuasi todas ellas fallaron.Que pasa con la redes WiFi en centros urbanos? Mi opinión es sobretodo, que el Wifi se encontró, con una evolución mas acelerada de los móviles, que vieron su velocidad de navegación subir de forma significativa en centros urbanos. Los últimos modelos de móviles, vienen todos ya con capacidad de navegaci

With top-notch video resolution, incredible viewing angles, and integrated support for wireless movie downloads, the Archos 605 WiFi is the best of its breed. The Archos 605 WiFi lets you wirelessly download movies, TV shows, and (soon) music on the spot, as well as stream the latest YouTube videos. However, the number of content providers is slim at the moment, and some of the most compelling features (most notably, the Web browser) cost extra.The Archos 605's screen is big enough to do video justice, yet small and thin enough to comfortably fit in your pants pocket. The recessed 4.3-inch TFT LCD screen is not only bright, colorful, and glare-resistant, but it displays at a resolution of 800x480, making it one of the highest-resolution PVPs on the market. Plus, the screen valiantly resists smudges despite its dual-duty as a touch screen. It also has a built-in kickstand and an internal speaker really put this player over the top.There are a few disappointments: The battery is non remo

Our broadband contract with AOL ends this month and we are seriously thinking of moving to another service provider. Even though I have had no problems with my present service, broadband speed is a priority for me.After doing a bit of research I discovered that BT broadband provides the fastest broadband speeds in the UK. The most attractive package is their Option 3 package. This package offers up to 8Mb download speed with unlimited downloads, 5GB FREE secure online storage with BT Digital Vault. It also comes with the wireless BT Home Hub and Hub Phone so that you can easily set up a wi-fi network in your home.I already have a wifi broadband network set up in my house so that I can even use my laptop in the garden. However, the threat of intruders do worry me a bit. This is why the BT Home Hub is quite attractive to me. This next generation wireless router has an built-in firewall that blocks viruses and unwanted intruders and even updates itself automatically.With all these featur
Finalmente una operadora lanza un plan de acceso UMA para las Blackberry Curve, T-Mobile anunció que venderá la Curve no sólo con WIFI sino integrada a su servicio t-Mobile@homeLo bueno de esto es que ganan los usuarios de las blackberry porque ahora el equipo ya empieza a ser un nodo de comunicaciones total, digo.. la posibilidad de hablar por GSM y que apenas ingreses en el hotspot de tu casa u oficina la comunicación cambie de red y dejes de gastar minutos de aire para pasar a un plan fijo de llamadas es muy interesante…Porque en el plan de datos no hay cambios, ya que las tarifas de mail con las BB son planas, pero con esto ya empezás a ahorrar en serio y a usarla más y más. A ver cuando Movistar (que tiene en pruebas este servicio) se anima a lanzarlo comercialmente!no olvides visitar el blog en la web
Pochi giorni fa ho comprato il router Wireless per la mia connessione Internet ADSL e mi sono informato sulla protezione da adottare per evitare che il mio segnale sia captato da chi abita vicino e possa quindi connettersi alla mia linea Internet e alla mia Rete. Penso sia un argomento utile a tutti e quindi pubblico le ricerche che ho fatto prendendo spunto da Ikaro.net e che aiutano con semplici consigli ad impedire che ignoti possono utilizzare la nostra banda per navigare e intercettare dati sensibili.
Prima di tutto è importante ricordare che il raggio di azione di un router wifi di tipo 802.11g (i più diffusi al momento) è di 100 metri. Ciò vuol dire che il router wifi che hai poggiato sul tavolino del salotto invia il segnale sino in strada e per chi abita in città possiamo immaginare come questo problema sia ancor più importante.
Una connessione wifi aperta e non protetta comporta due tipi di rischio differenti:

No doubt you have heard of Wifi, and have learned not to confuse it with Wii from Nintendo. Chances are, you use Wifi and have seen it go through it's changes and improvements to become what it is today. If you need more information on what it is, you should probably visit this link.The point of this article is to introduce you to the newest WiFi related websites and Web 2.0 technologies. You'll quickly learn that Wifi isn't the estranged wireless protocol that it used to be!(thank you to killerstartups.com for these!) As WiFi locations continue to sprout up, people become more and more mobile with their computers with the added internet connection availability. Whisher makes WiFi even more available and adds a community feel to it. Once you have downloaded Whisher, you are able to share your WiFi with others in your area, or use the WiFi of a fellow Whisher for free. You can
Y es que este tipo de experimentos son más de tipo científico que práctico. En el hecho que nos informamos hoy se ha conseguido un alcance de 304 kilómetros, conseguido en Italia por un conjunto de aficionados del C.I.S.A.R., un centro de actividades relacionadas con la radio. Han conseguido alcanzar unas velocidades de hasta 5 Mbps, unos 640 Kb/s.El “truco” ha sido, además de utilizar los diferentes instrumentos como amplificadores de señal, antenas adecuadas, etc., enviar la señal a través del mar, de la península a una isla. Al ser totalmente llano, no existe ruido(que es como se denomina en el mundo de las telecomunicaciones a las perturbaciones que obstaculizan la correcta emisión de la señal principal).Decía anteriormente que éste tipo ensayos suelen ser más a título particular (de una persona o asociación), y no suelen ser útiles en la vida real. Generalmente, otras ondas, los edificios, vehículos y demás suelen ser motivos sufiientes para que una red WiFi

Se veía venir que RIM iba a presentar un nuevo modelo de Blackberry con prestaciones superiores y nueva conectividad, y al final se concretó con la 8820, que acaban de presentar. La novedad principal es que este equipo tiene conectividad WiFi (802.11 a/b/g), pero después tiene GPS integrado y soporte para microSDHC (tarjetas de hasta 32GB). Tiene un reproductor multimedia integrado que aprovecha el display QVGA, y me sorprende un poco que no hayan sumado cámara alguna, porque es lo que le falta para ser realmente completo.Tiene todo el sistema de mensajería característico y esencial en una BB, Bluetooth 2.0 con perfil A2DP para auriculares inalámbricos stereo, y es GSM Cuatribanda con EDGE. El reproductor multimedia ha sido mejorado, con un sistema de búsqueda de temas de música y la capacidad de reproducir video en pantalla completa. Va a empezar a estar disponible en las próximas semanas en algunos operadores, es probable que para Latinoamérica demore más.
Non si può utilizzare legalmente un gioiellino tecnologico multi-antenna capace di mettere a disposizione di chi lo usa quantità di banda passante sottratta a destra e a mancaRoma - Ne parla Bomega ed è un nuovo router WiFi: ancorché destinato a rivelarsi illegale in molti paesi, il concetto che ne ha ispirato la realizzazione ha un certo fascino. Il prodottino è infatti pensato per catturare tutta la banda wireless non protetta che trova per metterla a disposizione dell'utente. Nella sua ultima incarnazione, è anche pensato per bypassare le protezioni WEP della connettività WiFi.La presentazione ufficiale del gioiellino tecnologico dal nome emblematico di The Slurpr si terrà il primo giugno ad Amsterdam ma di lui già si sa molto grazie alle notizie diffuse dagli hacker che lo hanno realizzato e che hanno già registrato il dominio slurpr.com.In buona sostanza si tratta di un router capace di lavorare su sei segnali WiFi contemporaneamente per convertire tutto quello che catt
