Boingo is an Internet service provider.that services airports, stadiums, and other public places, offering free internet to individual users. This little program lets you locate free Internet hotspots in different locations so you can connect your laptop or tablet to the Net.

Both the installation file and the program itself are lightweight and need little resources. Once you have installed the program, it will locate any hotspot available, and will connect automatically if it is free. If not, it will ask you your password and username. It is worth noticing that it does not only locates Boingo hotspots, but also those of other companies. It also locates private Wi-Fi spots if they are within the range.

The program has a very simple interface. In the main window, you can see if you are connected, as well as the network's name. You can set the program to notify you when it detects a Wi-Fi spot, and to make sound notifications.

The program also has a FAQ section if you want some more information about it.

An interesting feature is the Search for Hotspots. When you select it, the program will open a web browser window showing a world map. Then, you can enter the name of the city in which you want to locate those hotspots, and the map will show that location, together with a list of hotspots and their locations, so you can find the nearest to you.

These are pretty much all the functions of this little program. If you travel a lot and want to locate free and public hotspots, then you may want to give it a try.
