Wifi at Prague Airport
Since October
2005, Prague Airport, in cooperation with T-Mobile Corporation, has
provided access to the Internet using a high-speed, wireless
connection called T-Mobile HotSpot. The service is available in
lounges, restaurants and other areas of both Airport Terminals.
Thus, passengers can use their pre-boarding time more effectively
for work, leisure activities, etc.
T-Mobile HotSpot service is based on WiFi technology, running on the
public band of 2.4 GHz; it provides high-speed Internet access of up
to 11 Mbits. Such services provided on a regular basis by the
majority of both European and world airports are mostly required by
business people who need to have access to their corporate E-mail,
corporate applications and the Internet at large. As a result of
high-speed access, they can work with the same comfort as in their
office, thus being able to effectively spend their waiting time.
The wireless Internet connection is fairly simple. In order to be
able to take advantage of the service, one needs a PC equipped with
WiFi signal reception hardware available with the majority of
current notebook PCs; another option is an external receiver or a
PDA. The log-in is carried out by entering your username and
password on the Welcome Page. The service can be used not only by
T-Mobile customers but virtually by any client who purchases either
a hardcopy or electronic voucher (similar to a pre-paid Twist
Coupon). The voucher prices start at 150 CZK depending on a pre-paid
chunk of time. Further information on the service can also be found
at T-Mobile Corporation website (www.t-mobile.cz/hotspot).
