How about this, Afrihost. Would be nice for your loyal customers !!!!!!

Wonderful news. Now, where can we get a list of the hotspots?

How does this work? Do we use our ADSL login details or do we get separate details to log in?

Wright explained that Openweb uncapped ADSL subscribers will be able to use their ADSL username and password to access any ‘Always On’ hotspot.

Yup, plus there's no cap like this. There's a time limit though

Just saying, because the trumpets is blowing like it is a world first.

Ive never used the wifi hotspots before though. Do i simply connect to the WIFI network and then it will ask for username and password?
How does one check the data usage on this?

At one of the locations (you can google "always on hotspots"), you connect to a hotspot with the SSID "Always On" (or something similar). It will be an open network. Once connected, open your browser and you'll see a login page where you will be able to logon with the appropriate credentials.

MWEB gives a paltry 300MB across all speeds...go figure (they recently shifted from 5hours to 300MB!)

When did this happen?

Early flights + AlwaysOn&Mweb + aDownloader used to be awesome! ~10meg uncapped for an hour or so made airports bearable

EDIT:

Still 5hours

Thanks. I will give some of them a go near where I live

While I think this is great, it is also flipping the bird to the Openweb capped users. I am on really large capped account, paying FAR more than the uncapped users, but I don't get any of this benefit - that is pretty crap.

I've been pretty unhappy with Openweb recently due to crippling download speed problems and for poor response to my service issues.

This is a great reason to stay, however.

Upgrade your account to Gold or at least Silver.

So was trying to access the net today while I was at Bug & Mean. How do I use my account to access the net?
