BT Wifi hotspots

Thinking of moving to BT broadband (I know, but with Orange at the moment so can it get worse?). How much connectivity is there in the so-called FON wifi hotspots?

Im just looking into this myself and have signed up for FON but still staying with my present ISP which is O2. I first thought that I had to go with BT , but this is not the case. The cost of the FON machine that plugs into my O2 router was about £40.
The reviews I have read of FON are quite good. Mine should arrive any day now, so will post back in a week or so if no one else replies.On the internet you can be anything you want.It`s strange so many people choose to be rude and stupid.0 -
It depends where you live & are in the country, some areas are full of hotspots in either the FON or BT Openzone format. you will normally expect a connection speed of around 512k. I find them very useful for my iPhone when I'm out and about.
I work in London and you are normally very close to a hotspot however move out to the suburbs and not so good.These are my thoughts and no one else's, so like any public forum advice - check it out before entering into contracts or spending your hard earned cash!
I don't know everything, however I do try to point people in the right direction but at the end of the day you can only ever help yourself!0
