Free Wifi in SGR

andy · March 2007

Anyone know where you can access free wi-fi around here - apart from sitting in the street outside David's flat?

Wasn't Front Room Cafe threatening to do this?

Four Eyes · March 2007

The White Lion has it (if you want to risk getting your laptop nicked), and my kitchen has 50mbps courtesy of some kind neighbour on Upper Tollington Park.

To add to the list of free wireless options - both the natural cafe on Crouch End Broadway and Pick More Daisies on Crouch End Hill have free wifi.

Front Room Cafe said they were going to do it, but couldn't say when.

The Larrick were doing it, you have to ask them for a password.

Worlds End has a sign in the window saying it is free during the day up untiol 6pm I think

Another non-Stroud Green free wireless spot is the Southbank Centre. Big open space, quiet in the day, bar on tap and free wifi throughout. Quite a few other bods working there.

@andy, did you ever get your laptop talking to your blackberry and to the internet that way?

andy · October 2007

I can sync the mac + blackberry with this. I'm not sure i've set it up properly though. <http://www.pocketmac.net/products/pmblackberry/index.html>;

The whole of Paris now has free wifi so I heard, along with their free bikes on every corner, Stroud Green's got some work to do if we want to live up to our Parisian reputation.

Did we ever find out who wrote <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stroud_Green_Road">that article?</a>

I've been looking into WiFi for use with my new iPod Touch and The Cloud seem to offer a good deal. [http://www.thecloud.net](http://www.thecloud.net)

@andy, there's advice on how to use a CrackBerry as a modem on <a href="http://home2.btconnect.com/Taniwha/">http://home2.btconnect.com/Taniwha/</a>; and scroll down to the Blackberry section.

I'm connected now from my Mac via by N73 phone.

So, for the past few weeks, mainly in order to get out of my freezing flat, I have been using the free wifi at the Old Dairy, the Larrik, the World's End and the Dream River cafe. Ariana's used to have wifi but when I went in to ask a month or so ago, they didn't seem to know what I was talking about. Anybody know anywhere else round here that has it?

Dream River

Dream River has been for sale pretty much as long as it has been open. Maybe some of our members could buy it and create this perfect cafe with wonderful food, low prices, soho atmosphere and great service since it's obviously a doddle to do it.

A good idea Andy, I look forward to the grand opening...

The Front Room now has wi-fi.

emine · February 2009

I'm not a fan of the Front Room, but I think I'll give it another go if they have wifi. I really like Dream River, especially the people who run it. I agree they don't have many good cakes, but their croissants are ace. Save Dream River!

The White Lion of Mortimer has free Wifi - and fish and chips for 3 quid! When my broadband was down one day, I worked from the White Lion - and it was lovely! Lots of gentle drunks quietly doing the crossword. It was much easier to concentrate there than in Dream River whose daytime clientele seemed comprised almost entirely of children under 3.

Duncan · February 2009

I think the Finsbury Park cafe may have free WIFI

matt · February 2009

Any iPhone/iPod touch owners can look up wifi locations according to their current location using a free app called "Wi Fi Finder". There are too many in the area for me to relist here. However you can use a web interface to view the list: [http://www.jiwire.com](http://www.jiwire.com/)

When I put in my N4 postcode, it told me my closest free wi-fi could be found in the Royal Oak pub. In Penge. The Stroud Green wi-fi blackspot is obviously bigger than we thought.

Howdy, Stranger!
