WiFi in Mexico

I'm going to Mexico City tomorrow. In preparation, I've been reading up on topics that will make my trip productive and uncomplicated.

During my hunt, I found a great website that summarizes WiFi options in the city.

I called AT&T because they are one of telmex's roaming partners. Telmex used to be the only telephone and telephone-related option. There are competitors now, but TELMEX is still the most common, so I have a much better shot at finding a ton of hot spots.

My first obstacle was that a Premier membership is required for access to AT&T's roaming partners. This means a one-year contract. No thanks.

My second obstacle was dialing the toll free number for Telmex (01-800-123-2222). Despite dropping the 01, the call didn't connect. So I decided to check out a different company: Boingo.

And there was the third obstacle: limits on receiving email. It lets emails be received, but there are restrictions and issues with sending.

So three strikes and I'm done. I'll just buy a multifon card at the airport.
