Title: Free WiFi in Airports & Public Hotspots
Post by: slimjim100 on November 09, 2006, 08:55:38 AM
I wrote this little paper after hanging out in the airport too long on a business trip.

Now one thing that could be added to this paper is the risk you take being on open or non-trusted AP's. Just because you paid for access or got access in other ways dose not mean you surfing is safe or not being recorded. I recommend establishing a VPN off of the AP if you are not sure if you can trust it. What do you guys/gals here feel is a safe way to use the internet off of a Public AP?
