SevenEleven Posted April 27, 2014 Author Share #9 Posted April 27, 2014 Is it free Wi-Fi meaning that I don't need a special code or password at all? You have to pay for the WiFi I believe, unless its sponsored. Most of the time, you should be able to grab a cell signal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

itmaybeokay Posted April 29, 2014 Share #12 Posted April 29, 2014 If we're talking about cell service, the antenna boxes and cabling are in all along Queens Blvd, also at 21st-Van Alst on the Crosstown line. They say that all of the underground stations in queens will have service in June - which if this holds true - is mighty exciting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
