    Hi,
    I'd like to go to one of the free Eircom Phonebox hot spots and try out the wi-fi. I have wifi on my laptop but have never used it before, I installed the drivers that were bundled with my laptop so everything should be ready?

    How do I set up my laptop to receive the signal and connect and go online?
    Thanks!

    (I have Intel(r) PROSet for Wireless installed!)

    I can just imagine a load of nerds sitting around the phonebox with their laptops tapping away. :D
