FreedomPop Basic 500 works well for those who just need to check their email or do a bit of basic web browsing. If you’re going to routinely go over the 500 MB limit, one of FreedomPop’s alternate plans, such as the 2 GB plan for $19.99, may be a better fit for your needs. Since the data network is supplied by Sprint, there’s a good chance you can make a connection wherever you are. Using one of these hotspots is best for those traveling for work or pleasure. The free access is a much better deal than what some hotels charge, and the connection speed is usually much higher, so you can stream music and movies, play games, browse the web, or check your email without interruption. The following ISP-providers have websites that list all of their Wi-Fi hotspots:

Speed of service and bandwidth can vary widely, and some businesses place data caps or time limits on internet use. You may also be required to set up an account or make use of a guest login system. In most cases, this process is automated; once you select the Wi-Fi service in the network settings, a web page will open with instructions on how to complete the connection.
