AT&T said last week that subscribers to its higher-speed broadband services will have free access to its Wi-Fi hotspots throughout the country.

 

Subscribers who get the company's Pro, Elite and FastAccess can use any of the company's 10,000 hotspots located in airports, coffee shops, McDonald's restaurants and Barnes & Noble bookstores for free. Those with lower-tier services can add unlimited Wi-Fi access for $1.99 per month. Connections at AT&T Wi-Fi hotspots for nonsubscribers run $7.99 per day.
