| Metrotown Wi-Fi
I'm just wondering what places in Metrotown would have Wi-Fi. I'm guessing Blenz and Starbucks by the bus loop would have it?

Starbucks/Chapters has the Bell wifi if you have a starbucks card, as well.

I have locked onto some of the merchants network near the food court about 2 months ago. But not sure if they block access since then.

Read up a bit about a program called aircrack. Then download it when you understand how it works.
Thank me later.

Let's say the taco place puts up wifi, why would you go there instead of NY Fries if you felt like fries?

^^He probably means metropolis should open a wifi network, not individual food establishments.

u would be hanging out in the food court to use ur wifi, spending more time in the foodcourt = hopefully buying more snacks while your there
a Metrotown sponsored food court wi-fi not particular vendors
edit: oh, ye whut trd604 said ^^

It's not in the foodcourt, but it's within metropolis nonetheless.
