Chicago Wireless Internet

Chicago provides many possibilities to go online wirelessly.

For one, there is a wide network of Wi-Fi connection points throughout the city, provided by such network operators as Airpath Wireless, Boingo, and etwireless.

Many Chicago hotels do provide Wi-Fi WLAN access to their guests, including Hotel Allegro Chicago at 171 West Randolph Street, Marriott Chicago Downtown at 540 North Michigan Avenue, and Radisson Hotel & Suites - Downtown Chicago at 160 East Huron Street.

Wireless Wi-Fi hotspots can also be found at many of the city's McDonald's as well as Starbucks.

Even though Chicago has lots of access point for Wi Fi, the city officials have been studying plans to build a public Wi-Fi network build with some 7500 wireless internet antennas on light poles.

In addition to Chicago WiFi connections, you may consider connecting to the wireless internet via mobile cell phone network, through high speed mobile data connections, such as the EDGE network that Cingular provides to it's customers in Chicago.

Your other option, besides finding a WiFi hotspot in Chicago, is to go to a Chicago internet cafe, or find a public library with a free use of a PC and Internet, or visit a neighborhood Kinko's store.
