While riding into work a few weeks back I fired up the laptop and discovered I really did not need my cell-phone card. All I needed to do was crank up kismet and piggy back of the residential wireless nodes. At any given time I could see 20+ nodes and 3-5 were unlocked.<br>

I stopped in to a local Starbucks as I'm waiting while the shop works<br>
on my truck. Fired up my laptop and it spotted two networks, tmobile<br>
and AT&T. For grins, I selected the AT&T network, then opened up my<br>
browser which took me to an AT&T login page. The page had a drop down<br>
box for email address domains, which included <a href="http://bellsouth.net" target="_blank">bellsouth.net</a>. I<br>
entered my bellsouth email address and password and Voila! I'm on. I<br>
guess I have some wireless access with my dsl service that I wasn't<br>
aware of.<br>
<br>
Anyway, I did this all under OSX, so I'm going to try it under Linux<br>
next. ;)<br>
