I understand there are many free wireless internet spots around hk in shopping centres and cafes, etc. Are you able to access these from a distance? Or are you able to 'tap' into other peoples wireless networks easily? Can you pretty much be certain that you will be able to access a wireless network from a suburban area?

Im moving to hk soon and I want to get connected straight away. I am most probably going to be living in a flat in Causway Bay. How easy is it to get onto a wireless network around there?

There are two or three Starbucks around Causeway Bay and a number of shopping malls so hotspots should be aplenty. Saying that your flat may not be within range and probably too high off the ground. You could ofcourse just sit in a Starbucks with your one cup of coffee for hours on end - freeloaders take note.

i love leeching at starbucks. lots of nice girls come in too i gotta go show off my big juicy 17" widescreen laptop. 19" would be nice but it'd look even sillier than 17"

I am in Causeway Way at the corner of Yee Wo Street and Sugar on the 15th floor and there are quite a few wifi signals that I can pic up. Just be patient try many positions!
