Yes, it does appear that
there is going to be internet access in Lithuania.
I did some research on the possibility of
WiFi hot spots in Lithuania. Lithuania has made a great effort to open
up a number of WiFi locations, so you can easily access the internet.
But, I've seen free WiFi advertised at international locations and then
have not been able to access it, and others tell me the same. So, we
won't really know until we get there.
Lithuania WiFi
The first link below is the Lithuania WiFi page that lists hot spots
within Lithuania and Vilnius. If you click on the "Hotspot Zones" bar
it will bring up a number of places in the city that you can get WiFi
access from. Most of these are free, including the Sarunas where the
team is staying. The hotel that the "others" such as myself are staying
in is not listed, but since it isn't sure that we have a reservation
there, we may be elsewhere anyway.
City Hot Spot The
second like is City HotSpot which is sponsored by a local company that
does web hosting, etc. It looks like they have hot spots around the
city that you can access where you see the City Hot Spot sign. There
are detailed instructions on how to access through their hot spots, and
I saw that there is a registration box on the page, so I entered a user
name, and voila, they came back with my username and password. I have
no idea if it means that I am really registered and can really connect,
but I can give it a try when I get there. |
