Share your WiFi and earn with Fon

FON is a company, which offers wireless access. Unlike many commercial providers, like T-Mobile, it adopts a more social tone.
FON allows people to buy a wireless router from them for €30. They then share their WiFi with other Fon users and gain access to other Fon users' connections.
Whilst many FON users are in residential areas, a few exist in public and commercial ones; there are dozens in Central London. This may rise as BT now integrates FON in their ‘Home Hub' routers. Neuf Cegetel made a similar move.
They run a scheme which allows their users to profit. They can charge non-FON users a nominal fee to use their WiFi, so it could be extremely profitable in a central location!
La Fonera, the name of their router, transmits two SSIDs. One is encrypted, for your own private use, and one is open, for others to connect to.
If you're interested, leave a comment to that effect and I can send you a promocode to get a €10 discount on the router.
