I'm confused about wireless

see, i want to buy a macbook soon. and i need to have wireless internet.
but i thought that in order to get wireless, you needed to buy it from a company like verizon, etc. and you would get like a phone bill only for wireless.
if i get the airport, does that automatically give me wireless internet connection? or do i still have to buy the wi fi even if i have the airport?
so basically my question is, if i buy a computer right now and plug in the airport, will i get wireless service?
or do i have to buy the wireless service it from somewhere anyway?

It can be very complicated.
What you get standard with a MacBook is an internal device that will allow you to connect to 802.11a/b/g/n standard wireless networks. Outside of that, it depends on where you are at the time you use it.
Most people who use wireless networking at home do so by purchasing some sort of wired internet service (cable/DSL/fiber internet) and connecting said service into a wireless access point (sometimes known as a wireless router if it also includes an Ethernet switch) to make their own wireless network. I know a few people who just search for unsecured access points in their neighborhood and use them. This is known as piggybacking and is dubious on ethical grounds.
Some people travel on the road where there are various internet services available. They're called "hotspots" and can be paid or free. The Verizon service you mentioned is likely one where you have to pay a monthly fee, and have a password to connect to hotspots affiliated with Verizon. T-Mobile has a pay service at many airports. You might be able to use this at home if you live in an apartment within range of one of these hotspots. Here's an older article on Verizon's efforts in New York City:
http://www.informationweek.com/news/showArticle.jhtml?articleID=9901230
A few municipalities or businesses have tried setting up free (sometimes advertising based - you see an ad every time you connect for the first time) municipal systems based on 801.11a/b/g/n systems. Google has a project where they've tried to blanket Mountain View, California with free wireless internet access. Seattle has some areas served by a free service, although it's typically busy downtowns and city parks. You proposed MacBook should be able to connect with such free services. Here's Google's service:

  • Confused about wireless networking

    We have a G4 Power PC desktop that is connected to a Qwest Actiontec DSL modem via ethernet cable. The modem is supposed to broadcast to our G4 iBook which has an Airport Extreme card. Even though the iBook shows good signal strength, Safari won't work, mail won't work. Besides, the modem can't be configured for full networking which we would like. I'm frustrated. Is there hardware that will connect to our desktop tower or to the DSL modem then to the tower and then broadcast to the iBook with full networking capability? Or do I need to also get an Airport card for the tower? So DSL modem to Power PC then wireless to iBook. Or is it DSL modem to base station then wireless to both computers? Like I said, I'm confused. Some clarity would be greatly appreciated. Thanks. Allan S.

    I just joined Qwest DSL and it came with the Actiontec DSL Modem. It actually came with a CD that ran on OS X and walked me through everything. Did you not get directions or a CD with your set up? What you do is get a WIRED connection via ethernet to the modem and from a web browser (I used Safari) go to http://192.168.0.1/ Then you will be able to configure the modem and wireless part to your hearts content! I still haven't got a full out Airport network going yet but I currently have the Wired connection connected to my G4 desktop (no config needed) and the 802.11g connected to my PowerBook G4. Hope this helps

  • I'm new and confused about "connection" things

    I'm new to BlackBerry--I have an 8320 Curve, I'm a small business owner and I'm not connected to a BES. I use the BB Desktop Manager to synchronize with Outlook and to back up my BB and I've done pretty well on most things, but I still have a few things I'm confused about. In this forum, I'll ask my "confusion questions" concerning data options.
    I have a "pay as you go" data plan with AT&T, my provider, because there is virtually no cell reception at my home where I also work. (I'm not using my BB for email since I'm in front of my computer most of the time). I have a home network set up and I've incorporated a router that supports wireless. I've connected a netbook to the wireless network and used it to surf the Internet, so, I know my wireless connection works. I've also managed to create a wireless connection on my BB to this network and on the Home screen, it will display my wireless network's name when I'm here at home, so, I know the device is connected to my network.
    BUT, I don't think I'm actually using my home wireless network...I tried the other day by browsing the Internet and then AT&T told me I incurred data charges--which I thought I shouldn't have if I wasn't using their network. Either I'm wrong about assuming they won't charge me if I use my network or I have something set up incorrectly on my BB...can anyone provide some guidance?
    Next, I don't truly understand what BIS is...I searched through the KB and couldn't find anything that actually defines BIS...could somebody please explain what BIS is?
    Finally, can somebody please explain the difference between "mobile network" and "wi-fi"? It seems, if I turn off "mobile network" I have no connection at all, including wi-fi. Is that the way things should be? But, I can turn off wi-fi and still get a connection (if I go outside as far from my house as possible and face south <g>).
    Thanks...and now I'm off to the BB Desktop Manager forum to ask a few questions there!

    Hi and Welcome to the forums!
    I can help you with one or two of your questions:

    BIS is Blackberry Internet Service...a service, hosted by your carrier, that provides a conduit between internet facing email systems (e.g., Yahoo, GMail, etc.) and your BB. Inside of BIS, you create conduits for each of your email providers that you desire to receive OTA email for on your BB. BIS will check your provider on a periodic basis (documented to be every 15 minutes) and only when there is something that needs to come to your BB does it generate any traffic over the carrier network with your BB. BIS is an add-service, only available to those who, from their carrier, contract for The Blackberry Data Plan (as it is usually called) -- a generic data plan is not usually adequate to have access to BIS.

    Mobile Network is your carriers network...data and/or voice services provided OTA for your BB. WiFi is wireless networking (802.11a/b/g/n) through your home WAP, hotspots, etc. I don't know if turning off Mobile Networ should or should not affect your ability to continue to use WiFi...I would think they are separate, but I don't have a BB model with WiFi.
    I know nothing about the pay-as-you-go programs, but from all you describe, it seems that you may well be using your carrier network at times. You will need to find out (and there are others here who know) how to shut off your carrier network yet leave WiFi running so that you don't incurr the costs of surfing via the carrier network.
    Hope that helps a little!

  • Some confusion about 3D TV's and Syncing Glasses

    There has been some confusion about our ad from last week and the offer to sync the 3D glasses with your TV. 
    We by no means intend to confuse our customers or offer fraudulent services.  The offer is new to our stores, and our own employees have been in training just this week.  Let me clarify the services included with the Samsung 3D TV offer that appears in this weekend’s insert. Geek Squad will:
    Set up and connect your TV + up to 5 components.
    Add internet connectable components to your existing wireless network.
    Make sure your 3D glasses work.
    Review and teach you how to use all of your new gear.
    We have some customers who aren’t quite sure how the 3D glasses work, or that the glasses automatically sync with their new 3D TVs.  So this informs them that they can depend on Geek Squad to answer their questions during installation and set-up. There is no additional charge for this – and the Geek Squad 3D installation and networking services are included in the total price of this offer.

    Can you give details of how you get to £45 per month?
    Phone rental and BB Opt 2 ought not to be more that £32
    You can opt for line rental saver NOW and that will seriously reduce your bill.
    You can also recontract your BB at anytime and unless you recontracted last May or only got BB last May then you are out BB contract and and can cancel or move or negotiate a deal.
    If you are really hard up you could cancel Sky as one senior to another.

  • I am confused about something.  How do I read a book on my MacBook Pro?  I can't find the iBook app anywhere, which is what I use on my iPad.  The book I want to read is in my iTunes but I can't click on it.  My iBook library does not show up in iTunes.

    I am confused about something.  How do I read a book on my MacBook Pro?  I can't find the iBook app anywhere, which is what I use on my iPad.  The book I want to read is in my iTunes but I can't click on it.  Some of my iBooks show up in my iTunes but they are "grayed" out.  The only books that respond in iTunes are audiobooks and that's not what I'm looking for.  Is this a stupid question?

    Nevermind - I answered my own question, which is I CAN"T READ ANY BOOKS I purchased in iBooks on my MacBook Pro.  If I want to read on my mac I have to use Kindle or Nook.  Which means any book I've already purchased through iBooks has to be read on my iPad.  Kind of a drag because there are times when it's more convenient for me to read while I'm sitting with my Mac.

  • Confuse about the injecting entity in EJB 3.0?

  • Confused about logical table source

    Hi,
    I'm confused about logical table source(LTS), there are 'General', 'Column Mapping', 'Content' tabs in
    LTS, in General tab ,there are some information,like 'Map to there tables' and 'joins',
    just here, we have created relationships in physical layer and BMM layer, so I would like to ask what's the use of the 'joins' here?

    Hi Alpha,
    Valid query, when you establish a complex join it is always between a logical fact and dimension table.Consider a scenario,
    Example:w_person_dx is an extension table not directly joined to a fact but joins to a dimension w_person_d.
    When you model the person_d tables in BMM, you ll have a single logical table with w_person_d as source.If you have to pull columns from both w_person_d and w_person_dx tables in a report, you add dx table as inner join to persond table in the general tab.Now when you check your physical query, you can see the inner join fired between the two dimensions.

  • Confused about transaction, checkpoint, normal recovery.

    After reading the documentation pdf, I start getting confused about it's description.
    Rephrased from the paragraph on the transaction pdf:
    "When database records are created, modified, or deleted, the modifications are represented in the BTree's leaf nodes. Beyond leaf node changes, database record modifications can also cause changes to other BTree nodes and structures"
    "if your writes are transaction-protected, then every time a transaction is committed the leaf nodes(and only leaf nodes) modified by that transaction are written to JE logfiles on disk."
    "Normal recovery, then is the process of recreating the entire BTree from the information available in the leaf nodes."
    According to the above description, I have following concerns:
    1. if I open a new environment and db, insert/modify/delete several million records, and without reopen the environment, then normal recovery is not run. That means, so far, the BTree is not complete? Will that affact the query efficiency? Or even worse, will that output incorrect results?
    2. if my above thinking is correct, then every time I finish commiting transactions, I need to let the checkpoint to run in order to recreate the whole BTree. If my above thinking is not correct, then, that means that, I don't need to care about anything, just call transaction.commit(), or db.sync(), and let je to care about all the details.(I hope this is true :>)
    michael.

    http://www.oracle.com/technology/documentation/berkeley-db/je/TransactionGettingStarted/chkpoint.html
    Checkpoints are normally performed by the checkpointer background thread, which is always running. Like all background threads, it is managed using the je.properties file. Currently, the only checkpointer property that you may want to manage is je.checkpointer.bytesInterval. This property identifies how much JE's log files can grow before a checkpoint is run. Its value is specified in bytes. Decreasing this value causes the checkpointer thread to run checkpoints more frequently. This will improve the time that it takes to run recovery, but it also increases the system resources (notably, I/O) required by JE.

  • Confused about extending the Sprite class

    Howdy --
    I'm learning object oriented programming with ActionScript and am confused about the Sprite class and OO in general.
    My understanding is that the Sprite class allows you to group a set of objects together so that you can manipulate all of the objects simultaneously.
    I've been exploring the Open Flash Chart code and notice that the main class extends the Sprite class:
    public class Base extends Sprite {
    What does this enable you to do?
    Also, on a related note, how do I draw, say, a line once I've extended it?
    Without extending Sprite I could write:
    var graphContainer:Sprite = new Sprite();
    var newLine:Graphics = graphContainer.graphics;
    And it would work fine. Once I extend the Sprite class, I'm lost. How do I modify that code so that it still draws a line? I tried:
    var newLine:Graphics = this.graphics;
    My understanding is that since I'm extending the Sprite class, I should still be able to call its graphics method (or property? I have no idea). But, it yells at me, saying "1046: Type was not found or was not a compile-time constant: Graphics.

    Thanks -- that helped get rid of the error, I really appreciate it.
    Alas, I am still confused about the extended Sprite class.
    Here's my code so far. I want to draw an x-axis:
    package charts {
        import flash.display.Sprite;
        import flash.display.Graphics;
        public class Chart extends Sprite {
            // Attributes
            public var chartName:String;
            // Constructor
            public function Chart(width:Number, height:Number) {
                this.width = width;
                this.height = height;
            // Methods
            public function render() {
                drawAxis();
            public function drawAxis() {
                var newLine:Graphics = this.graphics;
                newLine.lineStyle(1, 0x000000);
                newLine.moveTo(0, 100);
                newLine.lineTo(100, 100);
    I instantiate Chart by saying var myChart:Chart = new Chart(); then I say myChart.render(); hoping that it will draw the axis, but nothing happens.
    I know I need the addChild method somewhere in here but I can't figure out where or what the parameter is, which goes back to my confusion regarding the extended Sprite class.
    I'll get this eventually =)

  • Confused about standby redo log groups

    hi masters,
    i am little bit confuse about creating redo log group for standby database,as per document number of standby redo group depends on following equation.
    (maximum number of logfiles for each thread + 1) * maximum number of threads
    but i dont know where to fing threads? actually i would like to know about thread in deep.
    how to find current thread?
    thanks and regards
    VD

    is it really possible that we can install standby and primary on same host??
    yes its possible and i have done it many times within the same machine.
    For yours confusion about spfile ,i agree document recommend you to use spfile which is for DG broker handling if you go with DG borker in future only.
    There is no concern spfile using is an integral step for primary and standby database implementation you can go with pfile but good is use spfile.Anyhow you always keep pfile on that basis you created spfile,i said you make an entry within pfile then mount yours standby database with this pfile or you can create spfile from this pfile after adding these parameter within pfile,i said cause you might be adding this parmeter from SQL prompt.
    1. logs are not getting transfered(even i configure listener using net manager)
    2.logs are not getting archived at standby diectory.
    3.'ALTER DATABASE RECOVER MANAGED STANDBY DATABASE DISCONNECT FROM SESSION' NEVER COMPLETE ITS RECOVERY
    4. when tried to open database it always note it 'always' said system datafile is not from sufficiently old backup.
    5.i tried 'alter database recover managed standby database camncel' also.Read yours alert log file and paste the latest log here..

  • Confused about SOAP

    Hi all,
    As far as I know, SOAP is initially designed to be an XML based
    RPC protocol.
    But Java API for XML Messaging (JAXM), which is actually a
    messaging API (and not RPC), is also based on SOAP.
    How do they fit to each other?
    In a few words, what does actually SOAP define?
    I am confused about that, can you help me?
    Any idea will be appreciated.
    Thank you

    In a few words -- no. Try here:

  • Confused about passing by reference and passing by valule

    Hi,
    I am confuse about passing by reference and passing by value. I though objects are always passed by reference. But I find out that its true for java.sql.PreparedStatement but not for java.lang.String. How come when both are objects?
    Thanks

    Hi,
    I am confuse about passing by reference and passing
    by value. I though objects are always passed by
    reference. But I find out that its true for
    java.sql.PreparedStatement but not for
    java.lang.String. How come when both are objects?
    ThanksPass by value implies that the actual parameter is copied and that copy is used as the formal parameter (that is, the method is operating on a copy of what was passed in)
    Pass by reference means that the actual parameter is the formal parameter (that is, the method is operating on the thing which is passed in).
    In Java, you never, ever deal with objects - only references to objects. And Java always, always makes a copy of the actual parameter and uses that as the formal parameter, so Java is always, always pass by value using the standard definition of the term. However, since manipulating an object's state via any reference that refers to that object produces the same effect, changes to the object's state via the copied reference are visible to the calling code, which is what leads some folk to think of java as passing objects by reference, even though a) java doesn't pass objects at all and b) java doesn't do pass by reference. It passes object references by value.
    I've no idea what you're talking about wrt PreparedStatement, but String is immutable, so you can't change its state at all, so maybe that's what's tripping you up?
    Good Luck

    Ok, second. Close enough.

  • PSE 7 confusion about folder location, help needed

    Here's some background: I'm using PhotoShop Elements 7 on Win XP.  I have an external firewire hard drive I use for overflow/backups.  Originally, this showed up as a K: drive on my system.
    I added a RAID controller and two more drives to stripe as a single drive for temp space rendering movies.  This ended up as a K: drive and the external moved to L:  However, when I did this there were some pictures from my catalog that I had on the external drive.  I have used File > reconnect missing files to handle the moves, but PSE is still confused (very).
    PSE has started to mix up the RAID (K:) and external (L:) content.  If I move a set of pictures (e.g. a folder of them) onto the external drive (L:) via drag and drop in the folder location view, the folder will show up empty on the L: heirarchy, but will show up as a gray folder icon in the K: RAID drive hierarchy.  If I open up windows explorer, the RAID drive will appear empty.  In other cases (I'm not sure when/how yet), pictures physically end up on the RAID drive itself instead of the external.  I have uninstalled both the external drive and the RAID drive and reinstalled them both, but they are still getting confused in the folder view by PSE.  I've also tried moving content outside of PSE and just reconnecting missing files, but it still wants to put things under the K: RAID drive instead of the external L:.
    I've searched everywhere I can think of for a description of what gray folder icons in the folder location view means and can find none.  I'm not sure how to convince PSE that there's nothing on the RAID K: drive and it shouldn't try to connect the two.  Any suggestions?
    Thanks,
    Jim

    Thank you!  I ran psedbtool and the output shows the catalog has the wrong drive letter for the L: drive.
    Is there a way to make PSE forget about the K: and L: drives that it is so confused about so that it can relearn of their existence?  If I use the drive letter reassignment to fix PSE, it will break other apps that are now dependent on the current drive letter assignments.  I've tried removing all files from the L: drive, but it's still remembered as part of the catalog.
    Thanks,
    Jim

  • Confused about schema..

    I'm currently working on a project using VB 2010 Express and Oracle 11g XE. On my Oracle My SQL Developer, I am currently logged on as 'user X' and I created three tables. All of which are just listed on the 'tables' tree. Does it mean that 'user X' is like a schema when compared to MySQL?
    I have already integrated my database to my vb project and is working fine ATM. I'm just really confused about schemas in Oracle 11g XE.
