Network World, one of the enterprise markets’ favorite gateways of information, goes in depth about two applications that make it easier to get and stay connected to hotspots, Boingo’s Go Boingo for Macs and PC’s and the T-Mobile HotSpot Connection Manager which is Windows PC only for now.
I have used both extensively and find that the Boingo client is dead bang simple. Get into range of Boingo Hotspot and it pops up. The T-Mobile client offers more tools and capabilities, but isn’t as easy. Both are very useful though and worth having.
