Wireless Internet Providers In Japan

[etbenno]

Hello Everybody

Well in a few days im leaving for Japan and Ive been trying to find a wireless internet provider pre paid preferably or contract I can use while im there it seems to be quite a mission to try and organise it while im here ill be staying in Nagoya if thats any help to anyone.

I was hoping to be organised so i can use the net as soon as im there.

Even any numbers or websites of providers I can get onto when i'm there.

Cheers for any help

If you are in a busy spot or near the station, cafe... you will get YahooBB Free Wireless. Ive alwasy used it when im out. Dont need to pay or sign up, just log on.

Hope that helps.

No login req. It doesnt have a password to it. Basicly connect and surf.

yeah, just turn on your wireless and hit connect. most macdonalds have free wireless too as do starbucks and the like. or if you are lucky someone in the vicinity of where you are staying will have unsecured net you can 'utilise'...

A lot of places have "hotspot" service too.

You can buy a card for 500yen from convience store and it lasts 24 hours.

Works over your wireless connection, the card has teh ssid and username / password.

dude this is Japan. land of the rising multiple password unprotected wirless internet connections. I havent paid for internet in about 2.5 years now. And ive been downloading about 10 gigs a week in that time. you should be able to get onto someones internet connection in any builtup area anywhere in japan. near peoples house, shops, stations... the park anywhere. I dont understand why people here dont always use a password. . .

Does anyone know about Flets?

I think that is what I need for the hotspots I need to access (at car auctions)

With cheap unlimited bandwidth it is akin to opening your window and giving away the air inside your room.

they`ll allow me to steal their internet but god forbid if I put my rubbish out the night before it gets collected the shit hits the fan ...

[Laurence]

LOL, so true... and god forbid if you ever put non-burnable rubbish in the burnable rubbish bag!

[Fryman]

lol.. thats what we call "neighbournet"
