But I still can't shake the feeling that I'm gonna see a lot of other techies hogging my bandwidth without paying for it.]]>Jan 29th 2007 2:25PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/01/29/how-to-nab-free-t-mobile-wifi-lovin-without-running-vista/http://www.engadget.com/2007/01/29/how-to-nab-free-t-mobile-wifi-lovin-without-running-vista/Jan 29th 2007 3:52PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/01/29/how-to-nab-free-t-mobile-wifi-lovin-without-running-vista/http://www.engadget.com/2007/01/29/how-to-nab-free-t-mobile-wifi-lovin-without-running-vista/Jan 29th 2007 4:35PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/01/29/how-to-nab-free-t-mobile-wifi-lovin-without-running-vista/http://www.engadget.com/2007/01/29/how-to-nab-free-t-mobile-wifi-lovin-without-running-vista/

The crazy part is that you can enter ANYTHING for your name. So when i called in and gave my name as "Stray Light" service was confused. Apparently they hadn't heard about this Vista promotion, and wondered how in GODS NAME I had an account with info like that?]]>Jan 31st 2007 2:37PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/01/29/how-to-nab-free-t-mobile-wifi-lovin-without-running-vista/http://www.engadget.com/2007/01/29/how-to-nab-free-t-mobile-wifi-lovin-without-running-vista/
The browser string appears to be the key to the redirect. When you actually log in, there is a control downloaded that does some further checks. This is fairly common with these "public" type of accounts (wireless hotspot providers, hotels, etc.). If you really want to get on, guaranteed, get a copy of Vista. It works on the system. If you are determined to hack it, the control looks for something unique to Vista. This could be registry strings, bits of software, or a combination of both. By the time you complete the hack, you might actually get a day or two of service. Good luck! :-)]]>Feb 2nd 2007 12:41PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/01/29/how-to-nab-free-t-mobile-wifi-lovin-without-running-vista/http://www.engadget.com/2007/01/29/how-to-nab-free-t-mobile-wifi-lovin-without-running-vista/Feb 10th 2007 11:04AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/01/29/how-to-nab-free-t-mobile-wifi-lovin-without-running-vista/http://www.engadget.com/2007/01/29/how-to-nab-free-t-mobile-wifi-lovin-without-running-vista/
