AT&T free Wi-Fi

AT&T Inc. has expanded the availability of wireless Internet through a new plan to offer free Wi-Fi for the company’s LaptopConnect customers. AT&T LaptopConnect is a service that relies on the company’s wireless network to keep customers connected to e-mail, the Internet and business applications almost anywhere they can make a phone call. Through it, customers install a LaptopConnect card in their laptop computers.

Customers that sign up for LaptopConnect will automatically receive a pop-up message alerting them to Wi-Fi availability when they are in range of an AT&T hot spot. AT&T has more than 17,000 Wi-Fi locations nationwide, including at 7,000 Starbucks coffee shops.

For customers that are not in an AT&T hot spot, AT&T LaptopConnect cards will operate on the company’s wireless network, which provides DSL-like speeds on the company’s third-generation network. AT&T has 3G service in more than 275 markets in the United States.
