WIFI experience
Posted on May 21, 2006
Last Saturday, I brought my laptop at school because I thought we’re going to use it for our thesis but Instead we used it for free internet surfing.
CJ asked me if we are able to connect to the internet but during that time I really don’t know that there is a connection in that area. Alvin told me that he couldn’t connect and I asked him if he turned on the wifi but he said he didn’t know where. Anyway, I hurriedly went to the west lab on the 1st floor of mapua building and instantly turn on the wifi. Toshiba has this application called configfree which is really nice and easy to use for searching wireless device. I open it and started searching for wireless device and boom! There are actually 4 wireless devices available. Two Linksys, one coligo and the other is Mapua wifi.
Mapua wifi requires us to have an account for us to be able to connect while LinkSys is an open device and can easily connect through it. Connection is stable and fast. We can even connect to yahoo messenger and all. We really had fun using the free internet.
After that, I went to glorietta to meet up with my friends, Patrick and Masa. We thought of using the laptop and started to find a place where we could stay. Ayala center has a wide range of wireless hotspots. We went to starbucks located glorietta 2 and setup the notebook. GlobeQuest appeared at the configfree application and boom we’re connected. But the only thing that we need is an account. We were not able to use it, its fun though.
Anyway, I might as well try using my laptop at petron mega plaza. Maybe they have a wireless connection there.
