VM Free WiFi access?
Just received this via email, not sure what to make of it.
In September, we’re enabling lots of Virgin Media Super Hubs (including the one in your home) to create new WiFi areas across the UK. As a Virgin Media customer, you’ll be able to access them all for free. With our clever service, you can automatically connect to smooth, speedy WiFi, wherever it’s available. http://store.virginmedia.com/discove...i-sharing.html Do you have to have a VM SIM?

No it'll be like BT Fon. Where your VM username and password will allow you to connect to other people's super hubs.

Virgin Superhubs will soon start transmitting WiFi hotspots which other Virgin customers can use. These hotspots will have their own dedicated bandwidth, completely separate from your own connection. They're also planning to install WiFi in street cabinets.

There's a FAQ; http://store.virginmedia.com/discove...wifi/help.html
Lot's of do's and don't. I'll wait to see what others think. |

My SuperHub is in Modem mode. Does this mean I can't use the free wifi, as they can't use my hub???

I got an email from Virgin saying I'd been accepted into the trial/pilot for their new hardware. Wonder if the new hardware will have this built in.
