Are you looking for Toronto Free WiFi hotspots? Wireless Toronto is the largest non-profit community of people, in which everyone shares its wireless network to give other people Free WiFi. From 2005, this community offers Free WiFi to even more people and it now covers the entire Greater Toronto Area (GTA): a very large area in the downtown of about 6 million inhabitants. In order to join this network and provide Free WiFi, businesses and hotel pay $50 a year. Unlike the LinkNYC of New York, WiFi in Toronto city center is not so widespread because it relies on the businesses' voluntary involvement. Wireless Toronto connections are not so secure as stated in the website.
All the libraries of Toronto have Free WiFi, and we talk about 100 branches at least. Only a limited number of users can access this WiFi connection since the number of people connected affects the browsing speed. Regarding the safety of its WiFi network, the Toronto Public Library website states: “The library's WiFi network is not secure. Any information you send or receive may be visible to other people.” Tip: do you want to connect more easily without having to move to a public place covered with WiFi? Try using Wiman App: it works for you by auto-connecting your smartphone to the best WiFi around you, wherever you are.
There are several free hotspots in town thanks to many restaurants and the area covered with WiFi is huge. “Old Spaghetti Factory”, Italian-style restaurant, offers Free WiFi, as well as The Bay – Yonge & Queen (all the HBC offer Free WiFi). Then there are “10 Dundas - Yonge & Dundas”, a big shopping center that includes a very large cinema, and “Chatime”, a large Taiwanese franchising specialized mainly in tea (there are 13 in the GTA - Greater Toronto Area). McDonald’s and Starbucks have always offered Free WiFi but it may happen that the connection drops or that it is slow. There are also many cafès across the city that offer Free WiFi, such as “Quantum” and “Jimmy’s”, that are often frequented by freelancers who go there to work.
Are you visiting Toronto and you are moving around in the city with the subway? Did you know that there is a WiFi network, TCONNECT, which involves more than 40 metro stations? The development of this network has been managed by the “Toronto Transit Commission” (TTC). The metro stations are not yet all covered, because there is no WiFi when you move from one to the other. Moreover, before get connected you have to register via browser. There can be quite invasive advertising that the user must look in order to keep the WiFi service free. Anyway, there is a quick and easy solution that will be very useful to you when you will exit the metro: Wiman App. It simplifies WiFi access by auto-connecting your smartphone to the best Free WiFi in range and gives you unlimited WiFi anywhere across the city, which is crucial while traveling.
Are you a tourist looking for free Internet in Toronto at Pearson International Airport and you need to go online to get some information to move around in the city, download city maps or check the hotel reservation? In this airport you can find Free WiFi in both terminals thanks to American Express, but before surfing the Internet you have to fill out their landing page.
It is very important for the tourists to find hotels with Free WiFi in Toronto, because the city does not offer the same WiFi opportunities as the other major American cities. The Drake Hotel and The Gladstone Hotel, both in Queen St. W, as well as Hilton Garden Inn and Hotel Le Germain provide open WiFi both in the rooms and the common areas. Many other accommodations require instead a fee for WiFi service, as the Four Seasons Toronto and Le Meridien King Edward, where there is a cost of about $10/15 per day. Tip: Wiman App is an effective solution for finding and connecting to the best Free WiFi hotspots in the area around the hotel without limits!
