I stopped in to a local Starbucks as I'm waiting while the shop works
on my truck. Fired up my laptop and it spotted two networks, tmobile
and AT&T. For grins, I selected the AT&T network, then opened up my
browser which took me to an AT&T login page. The page had a drop down
box for email address domains, which included bellsouth.net. I
entered my bellsouth email address and password and Voila! I'm on. I
guess I have some wireless access with my dsl service that I wasn't
aware of.
Anyway, I did this all under OSX, so I'm going to try it under Linux
next. ;)
