Free WiFi With Ads

如果你仍未係 Fonero ,仍可以透過任何 FON 的熱點,免費瀏覽 SkypeGoogleExcite Japan 網站,咁著數全因為她們都是 FON 的投資者啊!

倘若能夠瀏覽所有網站的話,係咪真係好爽呢?我們現正研究透過播放廣告,讓未成為 Fonero 的朋友使用 FON 的服務。其中一個可行的方案是讓用戶觀看一段廣告,然後提供30分鐘的 Wi-Fi 連線。如果你想多用30分鐘,多看一段廣告吧!

要全面享受無廣告兼全開通的 FON Wi-fi 服務,最好的方法莫過於購買 FON Router ,並透過分享寬頻成為 Linus 。此外您亦可以繳付 US$3 或者 3 Euro 來購買24小時的 FON Access 。

此外我們亦即將推出配備平面天線的 FON Router ,新天線能擴展 FON Router 的收發距離多達200米!到時15樓唔單止養到牛牛,仲可以分享寬頻,方便樓下的街坊呢!

Today if you are not a Fonero and you find a FON wifi signal you can view Skype, Google and Excite Japan for free because they are our investors. You can also pay 3 Euros or Dollars for 24 hours access, and 2 Euros or Dollars for any additional days. We are now experimenting with the possibility of ad driven access. The idea is that someone can watch a viral type ad and is then allowed to surf 30 minutes. If you want to surf longer, watch another ad. Of course you can still become a Linus and share a little bandwidth at home to roam the world for free with no commercials. You could also become an alien and pay for access without commercials.

Soon we’ll be deploying our flat panel Fontennas that extend the range of Fonera to about 200 meters / 600 feet. The rollout of the Fontennas will give us greater visibility and further drive the spread of FON! This may be a good time to try our ad experiment. We are still working out the details and would like your feedback. We intend to use the money from ads to subsidize our growth. We also need to figure out a model for sharing the ad revenue with our Bills and ISP’s. Any ideas and feedback you have would be greatly appreciated!
