Any way to get free internet?

| Context- I'm currently stuck on 2g mobile data. I was borrowing internet from a neighbor but they seem to have vanished. I kind of need it to do any form of job application and the retailers around here are stupid and refuse paper applications now.

Question is, how do I get some form of functional access (2g is not functional for job applications) to get this done? Wi-Fi signals everywhere but people aren't so friendly.


| Well, you could technically crack a network with poorer security and you'll have a pretty good chance of getting in. Obviously you shouldn't do this on a network that would probably have a network manager lording over it.


| >>136219 anything specific I would look for? Pretty sure most around here use Comcast or Att for their internet. Needless to say, I may also lack most cracking programs. I didn't think I'd need this form of skillset.


| Just go to a library or get WiFi from a public place.

Or crack a WiFi from a neighbor and use a VPN.


| >>136235 sadly the local library here is too far. Kind of lacking travel means. How does one crack Wi-Fi?


| I was curious about that 2g mobile internet OP mentioned. Does that mean 2g mobile network or 2GB traffic cap? And in any ocasion, why is it not suitable for job applications?


| >>136316 if it's 2g then it's because it is slow as hell, but there aren't many placea with 2g coverage anymore so I wonder...


| Hello my fellow sirs and madams, I am a newcomer to this internet forum. *Gives you a complementary upvote as a token of friendship*. My name is niceguyplzdontfriendzone1, but you can call me a Gentleman and a Scholar. As you can see I am very sophisticated and classy, that's why I came here, to meet other classy people like me. :)


| I'm 13 years old (I'm very mature for my age though!!) I like to watch Cosmos with Carl Sagan with my girlfriend (that's right I have a GIRLFRIEND, sorry ladies :P ), its our favorite TV show because it is so classy and intellegent!


| She's classy to of course but we want to meet more classy people! :) As they say, a Gentleman can never be to popular! Anyways, I hope to meet alot of sophisticated gents and ladies here so please don't hesitate to respond (or PM me ladies ;) ) I bid you fellow my brethren as I go off to other great endeavors (me being classy again haha)
Till our grand paths cross again,

| >>136316 >>136324 its 2g not 2gb and if I tether it pages won't load at all. And they don't load properly on a phone. Otherwise I'd just use it as is. Basically I'm just low on cash and can't afford a better mobile prepaid plan. It would be nice if I could but that's why I need the job. That and actually doing things. So it isn't a pleasant time at the moment.


| Just looking through the networks in the area, most are default att and Comcast setups with 1 hidden network as well. Seems most are wpa2. Not sure where I would even begin at cracking one considering i also cannot research how to do so.
I would attempt most things to get connected at this point.


| >>136364 and I'm the op but after restarting my phone it changed my id.


| >>136336
Oh well. I have used 2g with my laptop using an old usb modem which takes a simcard in it. It was ok for using normal, text websites (which are a rarity today in the flash/video/together-with-a-kitchen-sink interweb). When I tell my phone to behave like a personal AP I can connect with my laptop to that wifi, so I don't know what to say for your case.
You seem in a tough spot all right.


| >>136364
Do not bother now, unless you have time and nerve to do a lot of packet capturing and inject disconnect packets for other people's sessions and after collecting a hefty ammount of such traffic start sifting through it only for the authentification packets. Which will be encrypted anyway and you would be hunting around for whatever algorithm that reverses it.


| >>136367 yeah. Its a bit rough. I would be all for learning how to crack anything but there aren't exactly offline resources available for that sort of thing.
As for using my phone as an access point, I have tried that, but you are right in that text based webpages are rare. This is quite the mess I'm stuck with.


| >>136372 well, that makes things a bit rough then. I have an xfinity hotspot nearby but 2 hours a month isn't exactly good for job related applications when most insist on personality test garbage as well. But I appreciate the reply.

*tips fedore*


| The you waste trying to get into someone elses wifi could be spent not trying to justify not being able to get a ride to a library


| >>136625 The time you waste**


| >>136625 library here is outdated. Not a whole lot of funding. Relatively certain they haven't got internet worth using at this point.
Ignoring that, I don't have a reliable means of transport or someone that isn't working with the ability to drive me there.
