Does this work in an apartment that gets free Wi-Fi? Most rooms get "poor" except for one inconvenient spot.

Should work fine. My computer is on 2nd floor at opposite end of the house where the router is located.

My daughter had it in her room upstairs and it connects to the router downstairs in the opposite side of the 3400 sqf home. I guess it depends on the strength of the signal.

Yes, I think this would be a good solution to your problem, may not be perfect but it is the best one that I have tried.

Wi Fi is available if U R in a Wi Fi area. U need to tell the phone U R using Wi Fi in the setup area. Anything U do is free unless U go on a paid site to download a paid game. Most of the games on the free sites are quite boring. I believe that most internet functions are available. The draw back is that the screen is rather small and it is very difficult to read anything, I found myself moving the screen around to read, an gave up and went on my computer. The phone itself is really Great. If U Do Not tell setup that U are using WiFi, U will be charged. There is a light on the upper line that lights up letting U know is U are using Wi Fi.

WIFI worked seamlessly for me. I did nothing and it was running. But it is in the same room as the router.

The wifi antenna seems to be a little weaker than a laptop or phone. If your not getting good reception in the room as it is, than it'll have issues

Yes, it does work indoors. Works best if you keep it near a window. You will get a better signal.

If you want a free service yes, but their is other WiFi such as straight talk, at&t; go, etc that offer void. You can physically check them out at your local wallMart.

I use my laptop on seven different WiFi areas I have no problems with any of them. They might have bad WiFi card or they need to up grade the WiFi software.

Mine has an issue of the wifi dropping sometimes, but it does work. I think these have a cheap antenna, so they lose signal easy. If your wifi isn't working period, you may need to exchange it.

I only use it at home, not in a business, but I don't see why this would not work. Just be sure to choose a wireless channel that is not being used in the neighborhood (download the app Wifi Analizer and see what are the channels currently in use nearby). If all channels are already being used, choose the one that has less wifi networks connected to. This definitely improves the wireless quality!

The wifi card is on the weak side. This is pretty much inherent tothe series. I've had mine for a year now, and it seems that after a few hours the signal is wobbly. I usually switch the wifi off for a few seconds then turn it back on; that seems to work a while but some days are better than others. I'm going to get one of those USB wifi dongles and see if that works.

In my case, the wifi router is at the 1st floor. The WeMo is located at the 2nd floor. I did not see any connectivity issue yet.

Free wifi? yep. If it has a password then, no, unless you have the password. I use one of my cable companies hot spots to use my kindle at work.

Yes....I do have prob with the wifi very badly...it is really not working in mine...when I got it checked in India I heard they saying it is due to partition problem...that they might have not done the partition properly.

No, it works fine and if your internet carrier is good/fast you will have great WiFi @home or office. This little device is worth its price!! Never had issues to re-start since I purchased last year
