Free Internet Access

Looking for free Internet access service? In this section, TheFreeSite.com offers a roundup of free Net access service providers, as well as sites that can help you find free WiFi Internet access hotspots near you. With the exception of WiFi hotspot providers, we generally don't recommend free Internet access services for use as your primary Web connection, if you need solid, reliable service. Still, the free services reviewed below are handy for use as a backup service, if your primary provider experiences downtime. They also provide a convenient way for you to get online, if you're on the road.
