Free Internet when you're not at home
Reviewed by Julien. Review Posted 04/11/2008

If you have ever paid for Wifi in a hotel or a Starbucks, YOU NEED THIS ROUTER at home. With this "Fon Spot" connected at home, you'll have access to thousands of wifi hotspots around the world. I needed to connect to the Internet in Paris, and I found out a FON WiFi signal... I paid much less than in any other WiFi Hotspot (I think it's around 3 euros per day). And if I had a FON Spot at home, it would have been free!! connecting to other Fon Spots it's free for members. (amazing!) It's a bit difficult to install comparing with other WiFi routers, but definitely worth it. Now I'm happy to see Fon spreading in London, in Shoreditch (www.shoreditchwifi.com).

limitless surfing - all over the world!
Reviewed by Liz. Review Posted 26/10/2008

This has completely changed the way that I use the internet - I can now use the internet, with no time limits or costs all over the world! With over 1 million other users and 300 000+ hot spots I don't understand why everybody isn't using La Fonera+

Great concept, great product - I will never surf without it again!

really interesting-revolutionary concept
Reviewed by xabi. Review Posted 24/09/2008

you share your bandwidth at home in order to get free wifi roaming in every other foneras in the world!! and they have more than 100k hotspots alone in the uk... have a look to http://maps.fon.com, it's amazing what they're giving you for as little as another non-expensive wifi router.

Another Real Customer
Reviewed by Anonymous. Review Posted 11/07/2009

Im another Real Customer and have to echo that the first four reviews are clearly false.
Having one of these might be useful if one of your mates has one or a fon enabled bt hub so you can jump on WiFi when you are visiting withough swapping WPA keys but dont expect universal WiFi around the UK or the World!! In reality you have much more chance of stumbling on an open access point than you have of finding a fon and if you did find one you would have to be lucky enough for it to be in an immediately adjacent building to get a good enough signal.

Reviewed by Tony Benson. Review Posted 29/01/2009

I am a real customer, and I can honestly say you can hardly get a fon signal anywhere.

It's a complete joke, I had to send my router back. Nobody needs this router or service and it is not the most up to date technology either. BT creating a revolution? Please...!
