cyrano: (Too Much of the Stupid)

San Jose Free Wifi, you lose.

Posters everywhere advertising the *Fabulous* *Free* *WiFi* in the airport. Great, I think, and fire up the laptop. Whence I promptly receive a 'Server Not Found' error. Confusing, but not to worry, since there's a toll free customer service number on every one of those numerous posters. I ring the number, which directs me immediately to a recorded message. This Rogers Wireless voicemail box has not been initialized by the customer. Tell them to initialize their voicemail if you ever make contact with them. *click*
It's way too early for this crap.

(Eventually I poked and prodded the interwebs into submission through sheer force of will.)

I found that's pretty standard for airport wifi, especially the free services. I just keep trying, and eventually get connected.
