Is Skype WiFi hotspot list on map view out yet?

I was looking for WiFi's location list, and I found that on the pricing list of Skype WiFi page there are given the names of the hotspot providers.
But I don't think that only name can help you to locate the place.
What I was looking for is map view of hotspot location..
I read somewhere that work was in progress on it.
So is it progressed till now or shall we have to wait further?

@Neil: Thanks for sharing, but what is really - in the case you describe - the point of using Skype Credit instead of just paying normally for the pay hotspot that WiFI Finder has brought you to? Is it much cheaper, easier etc.? If not I'lll spare myself for the inconvenience of transfering money to my Skype account (and thereby paying in advance) - and just use the pay and free hotspots that WiFi will locate for me.    Regards,Anders

  • Skype wifi hotspots list location needed

    Hi all,
    I am trying to use the skype wifi access feature but all the hotspots that I though could work are not supported by skype. And I browse for all I though could help in this forum and always ended up in the same welcome site. .../allfeatures/skype-acess
    some else even ask this same question and summed up in a way I laugh so hard, that I will repeat it. Because no one replay that question. So, where is the list of all location of hotspots that support the feature to connect using my skype credit. Because a million worldwide are not really much of a help.
    Cheers
    Oscar.

    Scroll down. There is a section "How much does it cost?". Enter country and you will get list of supported hotspots and prices

  • Purpose of Skype Wifi

    Does anyone actually know what Skype wifi is actually for? Its obvously not for gaining internet access at hot spots. I have yet to find a single hotspot that supported it. And everything about it seems to be a catch 22
    And none of the moderators seem to want to admit it. It took this guy 4 pages worth of post for him to finally jump in to say there are no list of locations or coverage maps
    http://community.skype.com/t5/Other-features/skype-wifi-hotspots-list-location-needed/m-p/1449417/hi...
    and if I ever find a hotspot that supports it I am going to be up a creek anyway

    Make sure that your WiFi is turned on and you’re connected to a WiFi network. Then, sign in to Skype."
    How the Hell are you suppose to use Skype wifi if I need to be logged in before I can use it? Thats like saying "You need to have internet access before you can have internet access" Is skype wifi a Joke? an april fools prank that never got removed?
    From start to finish can someone give a use case senario where Skype Wifi actually works and is not just a joke?
    Thanks in Advance
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    I have never tried the App on a phone as of yet. But on my laptop I HAVE to have an active internet connection BEFORE I can log into skype. is that different for the mobile version of skype? but If I understand you properly from the other thread
    http://community.skype.com/t5/Other-features/Skype-WiFi-an-access-tool-only-Do-not-confuse-with-WiFi...
    What Everyone on the skype site means to say is the Provider provides a logon, unrelated to skype, that uses the skype password and username? I understand the difference between wifi and service. What I believe I am misunderstanding is why I would need to pay for service "Which I need to be able to log into skype under normal circumstances" when, if I am able to log into skype I must already have service being provided to me ... does that make sense? If that is the case then I have a valid q. If not Then I am wrong and you are completely right KillerHeelsUK and I am just an idiot who has failed to understand what you are trying to say.
    kudos to you by the way for posting to the right thread rather than making a new one btw

  • Is Skype WiFi a joke or fraud?

    I installed Skype WiFi on my Galaxy Tab 3 yesterday and bought $3 dollas' worh of Skype credit. 
    I can't find any hotspot in Northbrook, which is a norther suburb of Chicago. 
    I am disappointed with Skype, which is a subsidiary of Microsoft. 
    Whatever Microsoft does appears to be a joke.

    Hey. I'm not in any way affiliated with skype, but about 10 minutes of Googling got me this.
    http://community.skype.com/t5/Other-features/skype-wifi-hotspots-list-location-needed/td-p/76844/hig...
    Apparently Skype doesn't have its own hotspots. Rather, whenever you connect to a hotspot owned by another business, if they have a partnership with Skype, then you can pay for your time using Skype credit. (I think it's mostly popular in airports or something.)

  • HT4972 my ipad3 doesn't have the wifi hotspot option in the list in settings

    I have taken delivery of an iPad3 64G 4G.
    In the list on the left in settings - there is no item for setting the iPad as a WiFi hotspot.
    I went to a phone shop. They had a new iPad3 there with the same firmware settings etc. The option was in the list - I think the 3rd or 4th from the top.
    Why hasn't my machine got this option? Supposed to be on ALL 3G and 4G machines as far as I know?
    Thanks.

    It's impossible for anyone here to be able to tell your carrier what they need to do to enable their own features. Call your carrier again and keep going up the ladder of support until you find someone who knows what "personal hotspot" or "tethering" means and who understand their own systems.
    By the way, you replied to a thread that's been inactive for almost nine months now. That's usually not a good strategy for getting a quick reply. It's most often going to be more effective to start a new thread rather than replying to one that's quite old and inactive.

  • Can't find hotspots list of Taiwan

    After opening Skyp WiFi iPad app, I can't find "Taiwan" in the "Supported Networks" list, so I'm unable to look up hotspots in Taiwan.

    Its really freeview, isn't it? That in its own is a rip off. However, when you take the Essential Extra channels (most of them very decent) and the sports channels, I suppose £7 is still very good value for money.
    But given that the sports channels were supposed to 'free' for broadband customers, not all will be teribly happy.
    On top of that, Sky customers can get BT sports for ONLY £12.  At the end of all that, I don't think its really free, then, is it?

  • Cost of skype wifi access

    Cannot find cost information for Skype wifi access.  (Or a list of access partners).  Any help?

    The WiFi is just to get Internet access.  It doesn't involve Skype.  The cost is between you and whomever supplies the Wifi "hotspot".  It could be yourself as you use your own WiFi-enabled home router.  It could be your employer as you use the company's WiFi router.  It could be Starbuck's WiFi router or the WiFi router at the executive lounge at the airport.  The Skype software client could be on your home desktop PC, on your laptop PC, on your iPhone, or on your Android smartphone, or on a WiFi cordless phone.  That software client then calls Skype over the Internet to establish an IP connection for voice data packets to flow over the Internet between itself and other software clients.

  • How to populate list in tree view  dynamically

    Hi,
    I am new to  Indesign Plugin creation.
    I want to create list in tree view dynamically.
    I tried wlistboxcomposite sdk sample in indesign cs4.
    I have some doubts in this.
    1. Can i write my own method in  WLBCmpTreeViewAdapter class because it's implements ListTreeViewAdapter
    If it's possible how can i call this method.
    2. In this example they populating static string in constructor like this
    WLBCmpTreeViewAdapter::WLBCmpTreeViewAdapter(IPMUnknown* boss):ListTreeViewAdapter(boss){
    K2Vector<PMString> lists;
    for (int32 i = 0; i< 12; i++){PMString name(kWLBCmpItemBaseKey);name.AppendNumber(i+1);name.Translate();lists.push_back(name);}
    InterfacePtr<IStringListData> iListData(this, IID_ISTRINGLISTDATA);}
    and this list is populating on loading time but my requirement is i have one button "get list" after clicking this button i have to populate the list, how can
    i achieve this.
    Pls do needful.
    Thanks
    Arun

    The TreeViewAdaptor is responsible for mapping your custom data to the tree view itself.  I almost always start by making it return some fixed number of objects with names "item 1" etc. That way you get the tree view working first.
    Then, after you get it laid out and displaying properly, you can worry about using real data.  At that point, you have your adaptor return the actual number of items in your list and each individual item.  Then you can populate your list when you push your button and then invalidate the IControlView of the tree view widget to cause it to redraw.  At that point your adaptor will get called and your data should appear.

  • How to set up wifi hotspot connectivity

    I have an old laptop that was upgraded from XP to Vista Business. It runs OK but is very slow. I have Fios wireless at home and it connects fine, but the In-house Agent won't run properly (blank pages for the Internet & Phone sections...Chat tech was unhelpful). My question is: how can I set up the hotspot connectivity without having to use the worse-than-useless In-house agent?

    the link I gave is for a windows machine 
    Droid has it's own app, and boingo is what Verizon uses - so you can safely download boingo and then when it asks for your login, you put your VZ log in info.   
    you DO have to create a seperate WIFI log in though,  So you should go to www.verizon.net/
    Hover over my verizon and then select VIEW all from the my services menu  > then select internet on the left hand side menu > then select manage under the verizon wifi section.
    Manage gives you two options 
    Find Wifi Hotspots 
    WiFI how to demos
    Select Wifi how to demos and then click and follow the registration link
    when you get there, it wants you to sign in, you sign in with your main account, and then you go through the Wi-fi registration steps to make a Verizon WIFI username  
    these are going to be seperate usernames, one used for your account and online access, you already have this one
    and the next is one specifically for wifi hotspot access, you are creating this one (if you haven't already done so)

    Looking at the times, I see this only takes a fraction of a second but my startup time is still much much longer than it ever was or should.
    Does anyone have any idea on how to get rid of this? I deleted the Captive Network Assistant.app from my computer but the checking continues. It seems to be a rarely mentioned issue doing a web search, and nothing like this, although  it's referred to in certain articles.
    Really weird.
    Gregg

    I'd take another look at your startup log.
    If you look closely, you'll see that all those log messages occurred in the space of 30 milliseconds - by comparison, a human blink takes about 150 milliseconds.
    So while I don't doubt you're seeing slow startup time, I don't think CaptiveNetworkSupport is the culprit, per se.
    Fortunately, since every startup event is timestamped, it should be easy enough to determine what task is taking the most time.
    As for CNS, it's not just an iOS thing - it's standard in Mac OS X, too. I'm also under the impression (but can't confirm) that it only checks the networks that you've previously connected to, so check System Preferences -> Network -> AirPort -> Advanced -> WiFi and delete any networks you no longer use or expect to connect to.

  • Free Verizon WiFi HotSpots Now On-Line

    It looks like Verizon has turned on the ability to register for access to free Verizon WiFi HotSpots.
    Verizon Wi-Fi for High Speed Internet Verizon Wi-Fi* is a free service that enables qualified Verizon High Speed Internet subscribers to access the internet at thousands of public places known as Wi-Fi hotspots. This wireless service is not intended to be used from your home, but to be used while on-the-go.
    Here is the URL:
    http://www22.verizon.com/ResidentialHelp/HighSpeed​/Networking/SetUp/WiFi/124611.htm?LOBCode=C&PromoT​...
    It requires a 20MB Download or better FIOS Plan or 3MB or better DSL Plan
    Verizon Wi-Fi is available with select High Speed Internet packages and in designated locations only. The service requires Windows Vista or Windows XP 32-bit with Service Pack 3. Verizon Wi-Fi is not available on Macintosh, Windows XP 64-bit, or Windows 7 operating systems.
    If you are the original poster (OP) and your issue is solved, please remember to click the "Solution?" button so that others can more easily find it.
    If anyone has been helpful to you, please show your appreciation by clicking the "Kudos" button.

    Totally agree...I was excited that Verizon was finally allowing free Wifi access for premium high speed subscribers (something AT$T offered over a year ago) but this was short lived after finding out that my netbook running Linux  (Ubuntu) was not on the list of operating systems (an extremley short list) I assume this will change and they want to get to all of their primary OS users out of the way first. Disappointing to say the least. There are alot of your subscribers that are looking for alternatives to the infamous "Windows" especially on their mobile devices. I hope they will provide these users with options as well.

  • Objects not visible in Map Viewer Display Data with Mouse Moveover

    Hi All,
    On version 11.1.1.5.2 OBIEE with Map Viewer a customer has the following problem. Data objects are not displayed as expected on the map when the visibility check box is disabled on a dashboard. However the data about the object is incorrectly displayed on the map when the mouse is placed over the location of the hidden object.
    The customer's screen shots show a map with a panel which has a list of assets with a check box controlling if the asset is displayed. When the check box is off then the asset image is correctly not displayed but when the mouse is placed over the hidden asset’s location then incorrectly a pop window shows the hidden asset's Tooltip data.
    I was unable to reproduce this in-house with an OBIEE dashboard connected to Google Maps.
    In the MapViewer User Guide there is a reference to a MapViewer JavaBean method “setSVGShowInfo” which appears to be related to this:
    http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E14571_01/web.1111/e10145/vis_beanapi.htm#i1023460
    What approach should be taken to troubleshoot the problem?

    This is likely a bug.
    Is there an SR filed on this?
    Anyway, the Mapviewer javascript API is being used in OBIEE (not the java bean one).
    Is it a standard obiee map view which has this issue?
    Try the OBIEE Sample App (available on OTN)
    Try Dashboard page 3.3. SF Metrics. There are two layers that can be shown on the map (Revenue and Billed Quantity, and Establishment Revenue).
    Enable both and on hover the Rev & Billed qty info is shown. Uncheck Rev & Billed Qty and only the info for Establishment Revenue is shown on hover or when clicked on.

  • Using skype on skype wifi while in Japan for calls...

    I am subscribed to us and canada plan here in the U.S.
    I always call Japanese number from here with skype to go number (U.S. number) and it will charge a couple of cents/minute. 
    If I take my iphone to Japan and call on skype wifi, does it still work the same (as far as the rate) or do I need japanese skype to go number because I'll be in Japan?
    Of course, I'd have to pay for skype wifi but I think it's cheaper than buying it in japan.
    I thought wherever I am, the subscription control the way it is charged.
    Thanks.

    When calling via Skype it matters only where you're calling to.  It doesn't matter where you're calling from.
    You may find Skype WiFi helpful as long as you understand it's to pay for not-for-free public wifi hotspots.   If you have free wifi available you can still use your subscriptions and don't need Skype WiFi.
    Please note: I do not respond to requests for help via Private Message.
