Free Wifi in Brixton

[Frumious B.]

Downtown Brixton is well covered by the BT hotspot network, which is free if you have BT's cheapest home broadband package.

Ahha, I'm on Boingo as it is global, and they give you access to BT... so I didn't see BT as a seperate thing.

If you have a wifi booster you're within range of a BT hotspot pretty much anywhere around here.

I've posted up a listing of all the Brixton wi-fi hotspots I've found so far. I'm sure there's loads more, so I'm hoping folks will add the ones I've missed.

Hi,

There is also free Wifi at Cafe Le Euro.

Address:
Unit 1, Eurolink Business Centre (next to Curry's and Halfords)
49 Effra Road
SW2 1BZ

Great food & coffee is available.

I had the Sweet Potato, Coconut & Coriander Soup with nice bread. This is a winner. I will be back for it.

This cafe is a hidden gem. Check it out if you are in the area

Free wi-fi in Brixton in the mornings?

Is there any? Now that Coffee@Max has closed down I can't think of one.

McDonalds and Caffe Nero are listed as hot-spots on various sites but I suppose they're subscription only? All the free ones I know - the Ritzy, the Prince, Mango Landing - don't open until lunchtime.

What about the Lounge? Not that I want to go there.

** See updated list here NOV 2012: http://www.urban75.net/forums/threads/free-wifi-in-brixton.239267/page-2

Cafe Nero is free - via Cloud (free to sign up with it). Also, the library, ground floor only.

Free wi-fi is up and running at the library, good signal upstairs at the desks.

Really? When I tried to get wi-fi upstairs, there was no usable signal. Maybe it depends on how many people are trying to use it at the same time.

You can often boost a 1 bar signal to 5 bars with one of these.
