Provide company owned Free to Use Wifi Hotspots like Brighthouse does

Status: Acknowledged

How do I start this?  Ok.

 

I was a brighthouse customer.  Being a brighthouse customer, I had access to wifi hotspots that brighthouse had installed all over the place here where I live.  Since I had a brighthouse account, I was able to log into those hotspots using my account login/password combo and utilize these brighthouse owned hotspots.

 

Now I have Verizon and all of the hotspots that they say you can connect to actually belong to businesses so unless I want to walk from the marina to downlown to access a spot, I am out of luck.

 

Why can't verizon install some hotspots that we can actually use.  Wifi hotspots was a big selling point right up until the time when I found out that they are only listing hotspots that I could have used for free anyway because the business has it set up for my use.

 

Big deal.  Put some connections on the telephone poles like brighthouse or however they are doing it.  You can even charge those people without an account for time usage like brighthouse does.

 

How disappointing to find out that this big selling point was really nothing more than something I could have accessed anyway.

Greetings,

 

Since there will be so many users on the 4g LTE network, I was thinking for Verizon customers who also have Fios , there will be towers or something that give wifi . You will have to use your username and password which will allow you wifi, according to your residential internet. This will lighten up the load of 4g LTE network .  Verizon is big company and should use all its services to work alongside, wireless and residential.

 

Thanks
