A buddy of mine just asked me last night if I know of any coffee places or quiet lounges where there is a wireless access point and you can study/work. The thing is I've been trying to find something like that for myself for a while and i'm still "spotless". The starbucks in the states have wireless interntet but not the ones here in TO. I know some second cups have hot spots but you have to pay for them...so I figured i'll ask you guys if you know any?

I found this list so far but it's not that promising...any ideas?

But you need a UTor ID to access them. There a lot of places in TO wiht wireless access (coffe shops, malls, etc) but they all cost money use. I'm lucky I'm a U of T student so I don't have to pay. It will be nice when wireless access becomes cheap enough so businesses can provide it for free to their customers..

www.warchalking.org used to hav a great map .. the site is now defunct unfortunately..

a lot of coffee shops are now using the 'buy something surf free' idea.. which i hope starts to catch on .. public buildings giving free access would be nice however..

Which coffee shops do this? I was at a Timothy's World Coffee the other day and tried to surf but it sent me to a registration page.

We have almost finished building a WiFi network throughout all of Liberty Village. (the older neighbourhood around King & Dufferin)

Most of the coffee shops, restaurants and bars are covered, as well as many of the outdoor areas, and office buildings.

We support PEAP/WPA-TKIP authentication/encryption so you are not vulnerable to virus' or other layer 2 exploits like you would on a normal Access-Point.

PM me if you need more info!

Dan.

Ahh I don't have a laptop so I didn't know if it was free or not, just saw a bunch of people surfing with no wires
