QuoteA good amount of pubs in Dublin city centre have wi fi. You might need an eircom password for it though
Im going to be home for two weeks over Christmas. Im thinking of bringing over my MacBook for the Christmas, but I know I will get screwed on roaming charges. I was wondering if many pubs in Dublin while Im there have embraced the revolution and installed wi-fi?

Only my first year with a laptop so wasnt sure about wi-fi before. Not with Eircom though but wouldnt they give you a password for their connection anyway?Originally Posted by Dodge

Dublin City Council libraries have free WiFi
...but no booze.
Ceci n'est pas une signature
Why would you want to go to a pub with a laptop anyway?!
I'm a bloke,I'm an ocker
And I really love your knockers,I'm a labourer by day,
I **** up all me pay,Watching footy on TV,
Just feed me more VB,Just pour my beer,And get my smokes, And go away
Why not? Plenty of people do it and I'd get crippled with roaming rates with UK mobile broadband connection. I can go on as long as I like and some of those internet cafes are a pure rip-off.

would ye not have better things to be doing for your christmas break than going to a pub in dublin on a wi-fi?
Going to a pub on an 8 day session is usually all most people do(the ones i know at least)!!!

Try Bitbuzz website, they do a lot of pubs (Thomas Reid Group, although it might be cut off soon!) and Eircom as mentioned above. If you know someone who has Eircom broadband at home they will be able to give you free login details for all Eircom hotspots.
Boingo are also a good aggregator of different third party providers.
I've a few free hours before heading back to Longford. Wi-fi is always a handy way to keep in touch when im away so why not? Along with a few pints.

The Bernard Shaw has free wi-fi, or used to anyway.
