What is France wifi and how does it works?
France Wifi is a method of acessing the Internet wirelessly in France. In order to acess wifi, you have to have a router hooked up to your internet connection. If you have a built in card on your pc or mac, then the computer will automatically find the signal that is being transmitted from the router. If you don’t have a built in card, most french wifi carriers sell cards or you can get a USB dongle.

How to connect to wifi?
Connection to wifi en France while on the go enables you to access the internet from anywhere that has wifi hot spots available. You can usually find them at places like airports, hotels, coffee shops, or other areas having access to a LAN connection.

There are lists of wifi hotspots in the full article.

    A British holidaymaker spent a night locked in a French town hall after assuming that L’Hotel de Ville was the town’s main hotel. Easy mistake to make! The woman entered the building in Dannemarie, Alsace, on Friday evening but officials locked up and left while she was using a lavatory. She was released the following morning by the mayor.
