JonDigital Posted July 14, 2005 Share Posted July 14, 2005 the only way you would be able to get wifi via your car is if you happen to drive through an open unsecure wireless network. keep in mind tho its considered stealing and someone was actually just brought up on charges for sitting outside someones houseusing there wifi. i know t-mobile has hotspots all over. http://www.t-mobile.com/hotspot/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hanleylicious Posted July 14, 2005 Share Posted July 14, 2005 I dont think it's possible to pickup a steady wireless connection in a moving car, since the car would be moving farther away from the wireless LAN Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Boog Sciambi Posted July 16, 2005 Share Posted July 16, 2005 for the car you should be able to get a thing from your fone company that plugs into the computer and you would be able to use the internet via your fone Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
