Does anyone know of a program out there that will scan for and find free wi-fi? I'm using a Mac, and have iStumbler, which will give me a list of available networks and tell me which ones are Open, but it won't then tell me if they are "free"
Let me put it another way. Sat in a hotel at the moment, I can see about 12 networks. If I connect to one of them, trying to access, say, this website, it will automatically forward me to an access control page, telling me to enter a password/code. Where I am now, I have found a network, by tedious trial and error, which doesn't require a code. Is there a way to get that information automatically, say by pinging
